Nah, it isn't his footage but from a stock one for Birmingham Skyline which was mislabeled. Coincidently it is actually Leeds.

Ahh, that's why so much of it didn't make sense, I spent ages trying to work out what the building with the crane could be, oh well.

Pat Murphy just did his last report for the Beeb today, think he’s retiring
51 years mainly midlands based

He used to buy the fanzine. Often the sign of a decent bloke.

Heard Pat Murphy's last comment on air to Mark Chapman on R5 earlier, can't for the life of me remember it exactly or even remotely, other than the gist of it was something along the lines of it's always best to leave before being asked to leave.

I hadn't realised it was his last one today. Heard him earlier in the day and thought he was sounding old. I've always enjoyed listening to his reporting though.
