Trevor Baylis RIP

Oh he was a proper Englishman great but quite eccentric. Really likeable bloke, enjoyed his appearances on The Big Breakfast.

Is that a euphemism?

RIP Trevor.

I thought it was the England cricket coach then... RIP nonetheless

RIP

Didnt he live on one of the islands in the Thames, Richmond way? Rip Trevor

A man that invented and created, not famous for being famous.
A life worth celebrating.

R.I.P.

Met him when he came to our school to do a talk on encouraging young inventors etc and came into our DT class for the afternoon - was a really nice bloke.

Was when he was on The Big Breakfast, and he spent half the afternoon talking to us about what he was supposed to be there for, and half confirming to us that Kelly Brook was fit in the flesh too, and telling us about being a stuntman.

He also laughed (bless him) when he said he'd made a few quid and I asked him to lend me a tenner.

RIP Trevor.
