Ken MacGregor
21 January 2012
It is with great sadness that we report the death of Ken MacGregor.
His long career in television lighting, spanning over thirty years from Benny Hill and Doctor Who to the Black & White Minstrel Show, Van Doonican and Victoria Wood consisted of mainly light entertainment shows interspersed with BBC adaptations of classic literature - Moll Flanders and Jane Eyre - along with popular drama such as The Onedin Line.
Ken's use of colour in such shows as Rock Masters (Neil Young, Cat Stevens) in the 1970s are still a source of inspiration.
The funeral is at the East Chapel of Breakspear Crematorium, Ruislip, at 2pm on February 2nd - afterwards at the The Woodlands opposite.
His family suggest no flowers but donations to the British Heart Foundation - a collection for the BHF will be taken on the day.
