Paul Merton’s fabulous story about Nicholas Parsons will make your day better

Love this Paul Merton story about the late, great Nicholas Parsons, who died this week aged 96.

Merton, of course, worked with Parsons on countless episodes of Radio 4’s Just A Minute.

‘A favourite Nicholas Parsons story,’ said @mrneilforsyth on Twitter.

And there was also this, a letter by Kenneth Williams about Parsons shared by @LettersofNote on Twitter which also made us smile.

‘Kenneth Williams on Nicholas Parsons, in a letter to a fan,’ said @LettersofNote. ‘(I highly recommend imagining this in Williams’ voice.)’
