"That was my point of reference": no doubt Pippo Baudo, dean of Italian television, recalling Mike Bongiorno, who died last night at the age of 85 years. "This year - said Baudo - celebrating 50 years of TV and I thought of an evening with Mike, it would not make any sense to celebrate my career without him." "I started this job - he says Baudo - always watching Mike. Indeed, I was a kid in the bar of the province to follow "Double or nothing": the fact he has become something of a rival honors me. And the rivalry between us was always a big game: we joked, it was convenient to both, as he often said. In fact we have also become great friends, which did not happen so often with colleagues. "Pippo," Bongiorno was the big star of Italian television, has created the myth of Italian TV, and I do not want the other players. How did time "Double or nothing", so did his passing era of field: when he went to Channel 5 gave the imprimatur, with his stamp of authority, the new TV commercial. And then the recent switch to Sky, at his age he had embraced as a third youth, had spent so much, he wanted to be on the battlefield. "" The idea of \u200b\u200bhanging up his boots was not in his nature: it is enough think of physical injury or who have never had and that mortified her vitality. The passion for this job, we do because we love him very much - he concludes Baudo - is an incurable disease. " (ANSA)
