The image and memory of dear Marsail pinpoints now, in her passing, an especial focus on a hugely important, extended period in so many of the lives of those who were lucky enough to work with her in BBC radio. Marsail was always there for all, creating (invariably with twinkling humour) a unique sonic world for listeners that will never be forgotten. Her joyous spirit lives on.


Marsail was such a lovely person, so kind and thoughtful and loved by everyone. She will be greatly missed.
