Chris Somerville RIP

[Trevek]

I was sorry to hear about Chris Somerville's passing.

Although he and I often crossed swords on the site, I had the greatest respect for his work and dedication to Punch and puppetry in general.

The one occasion that I met him (about 4 years ago) at the Harlequin, he was very friendly. Unfortunately (and to my lasting regret) I had to leave quickly after the show and we never found time for what would have been a wonderful chat.
