Gyles Brandreth blames himself for Rod Hull's death

Gyles Brandreth says he blames himself for the death of Rod Hull, who died in 1999 when he fell from the roof of his home while attempting to adjust his television aerial.

-----

[Brandreth explained that] he had been at the theatre with Hull on the day of his death, a day he said was blighted by "terrible, terrible weather".

Brandreth went on: "He was sitting next to me, and he was complaining all through the show - he was interrupting the show almost - going on about how he wanted to get home because he wanted to watch the football, but his Sky aerial wasn't transmitting properly.

"And I said, 'Don't moan about it, if you want to watch the television get a ladder out, climb on to the roof, and fix it Rod'."

He went on to describe Hull's accident, saying: "And after the show, in this stormy weather, he went home, he got out a ladder, he climbed the ladder, and he tried to fix the aerial.

"Unfortunately, the wind was very great, and he fell backwards off the ladder and killed himself." [and I believe fell through a greenhouse]

Brandreth said that while he wasn't present at the time of the accident, he felt he'd "encouraged" him to climb on the roof.

Brandreth....also said he "killed Harry Secombe", describing how he had just completed a phone interview with the Welsh actor when he "fell and slipped backwards down the stairs, and a few days later he died".

Didn't know that.

He slipped and crashed through a greenhouse roof on to a concrete floor.

He lay covered in glass between the bungalow and the greenhouse.
