Knowle Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 According to a Daily Telegraph obituary this week Rex Garrod has died at the age of 75. It stated that Rex rode for Ipswich and Scunthorpe in the early 1970s. He was also an ex co-presenter of Channel 4s "The secret life of machines" and leader of team cassius in Robot Wars in the late 1990s and also involved with the children's television remote control car Brum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunky Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) You beat me to it, Knowle... I always check the Telegraph obituaries, but it seems that Rex passed away in April. Not sure why it took that long to get on the Telegraph site, but I did notice that there were several obituaries that were posted at the time. What's really sad is that he had been suffering from Alzheimer's for several years. Steve Edited June 13, 2019 by chunky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
