Paul Sapsford obituary

msn.com:

My partner, Paul Sapsford, who has died suddenly aged 58 of a heart attack, was a respected manager in television continuity.

He worked successively at the BBC, Channel 4 and latterly UKTV, involved with scheduling and presentation, and in communicating the channels’ identity through the voice links and branding used between programmes.

He got his break in television in 1989 when he joined the expanding BBC subtitling unit. There he nurtured a commitment to access and inclusion that he retained throughout his career.

Paul was based in White City in west London but he also worked for a time in BBC Glasgow, where his professionalism and friendly work style won him many new friends.
