TV Astronomer Heather Couper dies aged 70. This wonderful lady, if I remember correctly was always on Newsround, Blue Peter, Swap Shop etc in the 70's/80's talking about the stars, planets etc to kids of my era in a way as not to confuse them but bring that subject to life and was also a presenter of The Sky At Night. RIP
