Re: RIP : Professor Richard Holmes CBE

I loved his enthusiasm in his TV series. So sad that he's passed away at such a relatively young age...

Re: RIP : Professor Richard Holmes CBE

Being a historian myself I am much saddened that this renowned historian has passed away with hardly a mention in the media. His knowledge of history was phenomenal and his programmes will still, hopefully, continue to be shown everywhere.
