Final Curtain

Final Curtain

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of dear Martin, the Co-host of "Who's Tom and Dick"

Martin sadly lost his battle with Stage 4 lung cancer earlier this week, surrounded by his family, listening to his famous tunes — and yes, it did include the Bay City Rollers. 

Martin and I knew each other for well over 30 years and formed a partnership filled with incredible chemistry and laughter. Together on the podcast, we shared not only stories and insights into health, illness, and resilience, but also the joy of everyday life — news, music, hobbies, and the kind of banter only old friends can deliver. 

Martin brought his unique voice, humour, and spirit to every episode, bravely speaking about his own journey with Stage 4 lung cancer as he fought with courage, honesty, and that unmistakable glint in his eye. 

His passion for good music — especially the classics — endeared him to listeners, and his ability to find laughter even in hard times defined the very soul of our show. 

Today we honour not just a brilliant co-host, but a true friend who made every moment richer for those who knew him.

A special tribute Podcast will be released Friday 9th January 2026 as we come together to celebrate the life and times of my old mate, dear friend, and colleague Martin Weavers — the much-loved co-host of Who’s Tom & Dick.

As Martin always said "Turn that Frown upside down"
