SHOWBIZ: Mastermind host Magnus Magnusson dies aged 77

There have been fond memories and warm words for one of Britain's best-loved TV quizmasters Magnus Magnusson, who has died aged 77. One of the most famous of his Mastermind contestants was Fred Housego. He was the London cabbie who won the title almost thirty years ago. He gives his personal tribute to Magnus, the man behind perhaps television's most famous catchphrase.
