BBC Radio host dies 'suddenly but peacefully' after 40 years presenting

A BBC Radio host has sadly died.

Tim Jibson died aged 76 earlier this month [February]. An obituary for the presenter says: "Passed away suddenly but peacefully on Sunday 9th February 2025, aged 76 years, surrounded by his loving family, after the most wonderful day on holiday."

"Devoted Husband to Ann Marie, Dad to Michael, Paul and Lexi. Grandad to Flora, Rowan and Kaia. Amazing Uncle to Charlotte, Lauren, Lee, Mike, Amber and Harmony."

"In law to Paul, Sue, Caroline and Leanne. A good friend to many. Reunited with missed family members, but most importantly Brenda and Rose, who he missed ever so dearly."

The obituary stated that "a private service and cremation is to be held by family request". The message signed off with: "Special memories and donations may be left online, if you wish to pay your respects."

Tim's fans flocked to leave comments and respects for the BBC star and one person said that his "annual concerts have been a highlight of the Hull City Hall festive season for many years".

The presenter was known for working at BBC Radio Humberside and also previously at Beverly FM and Viking FM. Throughout his career, the respected radio host interviewed celebrities such as Marc Bolan, T. Rex frontman, and Tammy Wynette, singer-songwriter.
