The pioneering TV and Radio host died today after a long battle with cancer.
Whale was first beat kidney cancer after being diagnosed in 2000 and given a 50% survival rate.
He revealed five years ago that his cancer had returned, spreading to his brain, lungs and spine.
Despite this, Whale continued broadcasting, with his good humour and stoicism being hallmarks of his popularity with audiences.
Even while ill, he continued to appear on his Talk Radio show and deliver his weekly columns.
Whale is survived by his wife Nadine Lamont-Brown with whom he had a podcast called Tales of the Whales.
