Tim was indeed son of Bill who interviewed the Sex Pistols in 1976 when they uttered THAT word live on TV.
Bill died in the 90's of a heart attack.
Tim started his career as a teaboy at Picadilly Radio a year after it started in 1975.
He worked his way up to become Drivetime presenter & programme controller.
In 2002, he started Reading 107 fm as breakfast presenter.
Tim had heart trouble a few years ago when his heart stopped on his way home from holiday.
He was clinically dead for 4 mins & in a coma. His heart was later fitted with a special defibrillator, designed to restart his heart with an electric pulse should it fail again.
Bizarrely, he fell ill again shortly after returning from another holiday.
His cause of death has not been confirmed, but I would guess it was his heart.
