Broadcaster Humphrey Lyttleton, 86
Lyttelton will leave an enormous gap not just in British cultural life as a whole but in the lives of many millions of listeners,'' BBC Director-General Mark Thompson said in a statement today. ``One of the towering figures of British jazz, he excelled too as a writer, cartoonist, humorist and, of course, as a broadcaster.''
