Yes, I think Ellen was a lovely person - but I think Drink was a problem for her, as it has been for many people. Very sad.

Last Thursday, 15 January, Ellen would have been 71, a sad loss on 1 October 1992 at the age of 37. Her son Luke was only one year old!
In answering a letter on air from a lonely listener she said "you are not alone, you've got me". Genuine one-to-one broadcasting.
Although knowing her only briefly in 1973 and meeting her again in 1977, I got a feeling that she, too, knew loneliness on occasion.
