Wayne Lovell and Ann Turner, who have died within a couple of weeks of each other, aged 65 and 67 respectively, were normally referred to by their friends as “WayneandAnn”. Wayne, an intrepid television cameraman and news producer, and Ann, an entertainment news reporter and producer, met while working for the broadcaster NBC in London in the late 1980s, and thereafter were inseparable, marrying in 2000.
Wayne was born in Camberwell, south-east London, the elder son of Doreen Lovell Miles, a secretary. On leaving school he took a temporary job at NBC as a telex operator, got the news bug and worked his way up to become one of a handful of go-to guys in international television news.
