RIP Murray Walker

[this_is_gav]

'A Mars a day helps you work, rest and play' was supposed to be one of his slogans.

Which Murray himself said he didn't. It's a common mistake.

He did come up with "made to make your mouth water" for Opal Fruits though (now Starburst) and Trill bird food, when everyone seemed to have budgies in the 70 and 80s.

Bought his autobiography years ago so I'll give it another read.

My mate was sacked from his job at the pet shop

he got caught with his hands in the trill

One that I always think of and I remember being slightly lost for words when he said it.

“The atmosphere is so tense you could cut it with a cricket stump”

I love it when he says "thatsa my car" in an Italian way when referring to the Alfa Romeo team boss. The uproar that would cause today .
