  1. David showed us that journalism can be deeply human and somehow - a bit - about kindness and hope, even when reporting on horrible events. And I appreciated his respect for other countries and effort to pronounce foreign names correctly. He liked Antonín Dvořák´s music, we corresponded briefly and... I still can´t get used to writing about him in past tense. From Czechia, a heartbroken listener.

  2. "I´m David Knowles and this is Ukraine: The Latest." The sentence has been tolling in my head like a bell whole day. Will never forget it.

  3. There will be time to hear about investigations. David was such a great man, he deserves these days to be about his legacy. I´m speaking from experience. A colleague died in a medialized mass shooting, nobody cared a penny about him and everyone talked about the criminal. Within hours, a nice, brilliant middle-aged teacher was turned not just into a lifeless body, but also into a lifeless headline. I thought I´d die of the pain of it all. Please, make these days about David.

  4. Kate Beckinsale´s father died of a cardiac arrest at a similar age. It´s horrible, but it happens. A fellow sad listener from Czechia...

  5. Yes, it applies to David now, too. Great and gutwrenching at the same time.

  6. Cardiac arrest while holidaying in Gibraltar. Google it, it´s on the Telegraph website.
