The authoritative voice of veteran broadcaster David Ellis took to Down To Brass Tacks yesterday for one last official time.

During the special four-hour edition of the radio call-in programme, praise was heaped upon Ellis as a fitting end to his long, distinguished career as a journalist, broadcaster and radio producer.

Ellis, who spent more than 40 years in the field, is retiring from Starcom Network, but has set his sights on a new project.
