RIP Derek Watts - Boss's tribute to Carte Blanche's authentic broadcasting superstar

After more than three decades as the face of the most potent investigative programme on South African television, Derek Watts (74) was one of the most recognisable of any face in his homeland. Watts passed away from cancer yesterday morning. Judging by the spontaneous public response, the nation truly appreciated this gentle giant.

RIP Derek Watts. - Alec Hogg
