Former Radio 4 presenter dies

A founding staff member of BBC Radio Sheffield, and former Radio 4 presenter Pamela Reed has died after a fall.

Pamela, who was 61, died after falling at her holiday home in the French Alps as she arranged flowers, the Telegraph reports.
She was one of the original team at BBC Radio Sheffield in 1967 and previously freelanced at Radio 4, working on programmes including You and Yours.
Pamela's husband Timothy told the newspaper: "She fell and hit her head very hard. It was a tragedy and a great shock. Her great attribute, which everyone has commented on, was her tremendous sense of fun. She could walk into a room and light the place up."
