    RIP Cliff, but after a run of people who went too young, Cliff had a good innings. You can't ask for much more.

    I remember a feature on grandstand where he was the passenger in a sidecar going around Brands Hatch and was absolutely terified.

    Got his autograph at Charlton when he used to commentate on the TV live games. A true gentleman. RIP.
