[SaltireOShanter]

Of course only those of a certain age will remember him, and Take Hart, the show he did.

Such News.

They were my favourite programms as a child.

RIP Mr Hart

Oh

I can still remember how to draw the VisoinOn Frog though.

awwww

I loved Take Hart.

have only just dfound out about this. I read about his sadness at not being able to draw post stroke. So sad. He was a such a part of my childhood

only just saw this on the msn homepage. I loved him, i am of a certain age! He contributed as in inspired me getting on with me arty stuff when i was younger, and then on to art college.

RIP Tony Hart

Oh that is so sad - the show was excellent and Tony Hart aways seemed like a lovely man!

I bet Morph and Chas are devastated too!

SORRY!!

it's sad isn't it? I used to love him on the telly when I was little.

those of an even more certain age will remember vision on too

He was inspirational (he and Johnny Morris both stick in my memory).

Does this mean Morph is now an orphan? A Morphan?

Did you know he designed the ship on the Blue Peter Badge - originally asked for 1p for every badge made but was advised to take a paltry £100 instead!

I still remember Vision On very clearly - and Morph (although I was probably too old to be watching that!) Tony Hart was brilliant - I always felt close to him as my Dad was an artist too. He will be missed.

Was the first person to produce a programme for deaf children with signing 'Vision On' - he also designed the Blue Peter Badge .... a real institution and was my inspiration (much to my mums annoyance) to paint. May you be happy in that big gallery in the sky Tony

The nice thing about Vision On was that anyone could watch it and enjoy it.

It just happened to include signing and anyone who was interested rather than making a big deal out of being a 'special' programme. I liked that.

Was very saddened to learn of Tony Hart's death today. The above link shows the Gallery.

Rest in Peace Mr Hart. You leave a fine legacy.
