Happy Heavenly 100th Birthday to the great man.

In 2012 we lost Sir Bernard Lovell, Dr Neil Armstrong, Sir Patrick Moore! Sir Patrick Moore R.I.P. among the stars...

I think Chris Lintott is taking over the job, but I agree; Brian would make a brilliant presenter of this fascinating programme. R.I.P Sir Patrick

[@simonbrooks607166]

Yes, Brian May is the perfect presenter with Chris Lintott as his co- presenter

[@ladystormannie]

I'm so sorry for your loss Brian! May he forever be remembered and Rest in Peace . Big hugs, Annie

[@billjones7932]

I wept when this man died

[@MoonVision_1]

was so warmed to hear today that Brian May had bought Farthings previously.. i know it will be in good hands. as for the Sky At Night post Patrick... well yes, count me in for Brian May as the new anchor.. with Chris & Jon & Pete & Paul as co creators of future episodes.

Sleep well Sir Pat.

Maybe Brian May should consider continuing the programme in Sir Patrick's absense? Brian is qualified to do it and possesses some of the same humble and modest traits. I'm sure the great Sir Patrick Moore would approve of Brian presenting the programme!

How about this as a tribute to Sir Patrick? Sir Patrick discovered the last major feature on the Earth visible side of the Moon - Mare Orientale. I know the I.A.U. will not go for it, but we in the amateur astonomy community might henceforth refer to Mare Orientale as Patrick's Sea in honor of the Great Man and all he did for Astonomy.

I often wonder why all these amazing characters have never been replaced.perhaps it is a dreadful reflection on our country now.
