Returning today from a memorial service for my old colleague Peter Wilsher, I read in the order of service this tribute to him from Peter Pringle, who was one of his correspondents:

“For me, Peter was one of the last great foreign editors of Fleet Street, always fascinated by stories not being told by others, and stories, therefore, that would tell you something you didn’t know.”

When, in our multimedia world of recycled content, was the last time you read one of those?
