 * Keep - on the simple basis that the subject was conferred a Member of the Order of the British Empire by HM the Queen. Needs to remain while other sources are gathered and further notability established. There's a video interview with him at and another short one at . This would be a hasty deletion, IMO.

 * Keep. While an MBE is not usually sufficient to meet WP:ANYBIO (that would need a CBE or higher), if awarded to a public figure like a broadcaster it usually is. And the obits confirm his notability. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:36, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
