Fred Dibnah

I first saw him in the 70's on a Panarama episode. It followed his steeplejcking business (including demolishing a 150' chimney with a fire!).

He was a fab character who loved old engineering and he drove a series 2a for donkeys years!

There were numerous TV programmes that he was involved in and his boundless enthusiasm for all things engineering was fantastic.

and he described things in plain black and white so even I understood how things worked.

He knew everything from bringing down chimneys to canal building to steam engine building to mines. he was a font of all things mechanical and was a brilliant person.

Top bloke. you tube him. I am sure there are some videos of him.
