Sadly not.  He died earlier this year.

Is Mr. Browne still with us ? His interviews were always excellent. Actually
I liked his the best out of all the I nterviews I have seen. His humor is
wonderful

Greetings--

I'm wondering if any fellow Churchillians have seen the three-part
documentary Churchill, narrated by Sir Ian McKellen? It was shown on my
local PBS channel the past three Sundays. It featured interviews with family
members (Mary, Lady Soames, grandson Winston S. Churchill, and granddaughter
Celia Sandys), colleagues (Anthony Montague Browne, Evan Davies), and
descendants of colleagues (Lloyd George's great-grandson). I noticed it was
done back in 2003.

I thought it was very well done. The person who read Churchill's words was
marvelous. It was like the great man had come back to life!! 

I must confess that I was very sad at the end, watching Churchill's physical
decline. There was wonderful clear footage of the funeral procession from
Parliament up through Whitehall. And when St Paul's Cathedral choir was
singing The Battle Hymn of the Republic, I 'lost it'...and the tears really
flowed during the procession on the River Thames, as the dock cranes were
lowered in tribute.

I live not far from where Churchill's American grandfather, Leonard Jerome,
was born and raised. And that's a real honor to me.

What are your thoughts on this documentary? Thanks.
