Former BBC radio presenter Kelly dies aged 69

Former BBC radio presenter Danny Kelly has been described as a "broadcasting titan" following his death at the age of 69.

Kelly stepped back from his long-term role at Talksport after being diagnosed with throat cancer in March.

He presented a radio sports show on BBC London before joining Talksport in 2007 and was previously editor of the New Musical Express and Q magazine.

Talksport paid tribute to him on Wednesday, calling him a "much-loved friend" and a "broadcasting titan".

"A true legend of the station, Danny had time for everyone and went out of his way to be kind," they said., external
