Starring: Fred Dibnah The late Fred Dibnah's life changed forever the day he popped up on local television news in 1978, blithely repairing Bolton's town hall clock at the dizzying height of some 250 feet. And so did ours. With his specs, cloth cap and infectious toothy grin, he quickly found a place in the nation's heart and became a familiar sight on our screens, demolishing giant factory chimneys with ease and casually hopping across the chimney tops with death-defying agility. With the world literally at his feet, Fred was much in demand as a TV pundit and after- dinner speaker on industrial history and all things mechanical – and especially anything related to his overriding passion: steamrollers. Awarded an MBE for services to heritageand broadcasting, he was already losing his battle with kidney cancer when he arrivedat Buckingham Palace to collect it – in his green, black and gold eight-ton steam traction engine! Rejecting chemotherapy in favour of Guinness and oranges, the nation's favourite steeplejack left us for good in November 2004.
