Claude Wilton

"Say nothing 'til you see Claude"

There have been many tributes to Claude Wilton, who died aged 89 after a short illness. He was a civil rights leader, footballer, solicitor - and Derry legend. Teresa Craig from the news team spoke to Claude Wilton's friends and wife, Monica. Right to the end he was generous to a fault, according to his fellow civil rights campaigner, and charity worker, Eamon Melaugh. Claude's friend and fellow civil rights campaigner, Ivan Cooper, said he was a friend to those in need. In 1993, Claude spoke to journalist, Frank Curran about football. Mark Patterson spoke to Claude earlier in 2008 about his life in retirement.
