Absolutely. We could do with a few more world leaders with his moral conviction.

Let's hope someone with equivalent values and ethics stands up sometime soon... RIP

I agree, great man but I have to say i am also "mandelad" out.

BBC1 cancelled everything last night to have a "rolling" news on the story.

BBC breakfast - only news story they were running.

BBC Scotland morning phone in - Mandela

BBC 2 Jeremy Vine phone in - Mandela

etc, etc,

Its one of them were its hard to judge how to strike the right balance.

I think it was a nice touch that the BBC interrupted normal programing last night when it was breaking news. Unlike ITV who chose to continue on with there mind numbing so called celebrity crap.

I do agree though in these days of 24 news there is only so much coverage a story can have without repeating things to a point were people just want to switch off

Oh dear, I feel really old, I still remember him when he was a terrorist!
Maybe he was good terrorist? Do you get good terrorists?
