My husband, Peter O’Kill, who has died aged 79, was a press and television journalist. He went from Fleet Street to a successful career at the BBC, culminating as associate editor of Breakfast News.
Starting at the BBC in the early 1980s, Peter worked as a producer on the first airing of Breakfast Time, on 17 January 1983. It was a live programme with Frank Bough, Selina Scott, the astrologer Russell Grant, and “Green Goddess” Diana Moran among its familiar faces.
