I've never forgotten an immediately post-win interview he gave, I'm pretty sure in 1999 before he developed a slightly more refined 'I want to thank the team, etc' mindset. I can't remember the interviewer's exact words, but it went something like this:

Interviewer (probably Mr Cannell): 'When you saw the size of your lead, did you back off a bit?'

DJ: 'Did I bollox'.

On Manx Radio, that sounded positively marvellous.

RIP.
