This Morning star Gyles Brandreth says he 'blames himself' for TV entertainer Rod Hull's fatal accident as he says: 'I killed a man - the emu man'


The Morning's Gyles Brandreth has revealed he 'blames' himself for the fatal death of legendary entertainer Rod Hull.

ITV star and former MP Gyles, 76, has now revealed that days earlier Rod had been complaining to him about his awful TV connection and he 'encouraged' him to 'get a ladder' and climb on the roof. Gyles admitted he feels responsible for his friends death after he took his advice while watching a Champions League match between Manchester United and Inter Milan, at half-time.
