  • Guardian WWW site, viewed Dec. 21, 2016 (Lionel Blue, rabbi and broadcaster, born 6 February 1930; died 19 December 2016; one of the most respected religious figures in the UK, largely on the strength of the regular three-minute homilies he gave on the Today programme's religious slot, Thought for the Day, on BBC Radio 4; his popularity as a radio broadcaster--on Radio 2 as well as Radio 4--led to occasional television appearances, including a documentary, In Search of Holy England (1989), and to a string of lightly religious books with titles such as A Backdoor to Heaven, How to Get Up When Life Gets You Down, The Little Blue Book of Prayer and The Godseeker's Guide; there were one-man shows in theatres around the country and two autobiographies: My Affair With Christianity (1998) and Hitchhiking to Heaven (2004))
