TMS gave dad 'standing ovation he richly deserved'

Pat Taylor sent an emotional letter to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 5 Live's Test Match Special about how much they had helped whilst his father was dying.

The letter was read aloud by presenter Jonathan Agnew and received a huge response from listeners and on social media.

John Taylor, who died aged 83, was an avid listener to the programme and keen sportsman.

Pat said playing the programme to his father whilst in hospital he "completely came back" and gave him the opportunity to say goodbye.
