Times obituary of Andy Kershaw-‘northerner’

In Uncategorized on April 18, 2026 by kmflett

In the Rupert Murdoch ownership era The Times mostly does stories that have appeared in the S*n with more sentences.

However some parts of the traditional paper have survived.

The cricket coverage remains excellent and the coverage of French cuisine and what the Royal Family are up to continues.

Its Obituaries are also untouched by Murdoch

The obituary for Andy Kershaw is focused on his professional career rather than personal details and while it hints at his left politics its not snippy about them as Times obits often are.

I doubt Kershaw would have been delighted by a Times Obit but at least it tries to understand where he was coming from
