It was mainly due to him and to his television programme, 'The Sky at Night' that my interest in astronomy was enkindled. Like Sir Patrick, I am also an amateur when it comes to astronomy, but in Sir Patrick's case, his claiming to be such was an exercise in his usual modesty, whereas I really and truly am an amateur.

The childhood fascination I gained for the subject has never left me, and listening to that enthusiasm with which 'Mr. Astronomy' himself spoke upon the subject all throughout his life, ensured that the fires of my own enthusiasm never died out.view less
