“In a special episode recorded before his death, David Knowles attends a football match in Ukraine, exploring how 'the beautiful game' has served as an anchor in a country at war”. I was very lucky to produce this with David as one of his last projects. https://t.co/7qmd7bIi9w

A candle is burning for David at the Journalists’ Altar in St Bride's church on Fleet Street, London. Due to its location, @stbrideschurch has long been associated with journalists and the media profession. It's a beautiful place and open to the public from 8am-5pm.
A candle burns for David Knowles who has died aged 32 – a brilliant @Telegraph journalist & much-loved friend. His award-winning podcast #UkraineTheLatest brought stories of ordinary Ukrainians to countless listeners. We pray for him, his family & friends. May he rest in peace

I had the pleasure of sitting next to David and still do. I miss him dearly, it really hurts. Please take 2 minutes to read this lovely obit. He was one of a kind, without ego or cliche, just unapologetically himself every day. https://t.co/EGrASFTLWy

He ‘asked relevant and sensible questions, never seeking a performative edge to his journalism. The story and the guest took centre stage’
"A naturally gifted broadcaster, he was a reassuringly authoritative presence who never pushed his own personality into the foreground, even though he felt deeply about the fate of the Ukrainian people." You can read @Telegraph's beautiful obituary here: https://t.co/uxYLvAo7DW

Something quite extraordinary - the online book of condolences for David has so many messages it would take literally hours to scroll down and read all of them. Never seen anything like it, will probably never see the likes of it again: https://t.co/qS7kmDTmdc

Occasionally in life, if you are lucky, you meet a beautiful person. David was very beautiful. He also was a supremely talented journalist and through his Ukraine war podcast leaves a major legacy. On a personal note, I've lost a friend. https://t.co/Bx0B8kg99h

There are not enough words to do justice to the great friend and colleague we have lost. Curious, imaginative, kind, a personification of journalistic rigour and integrity. Massive 40k fan. Many of us have achieved things we would not have even tried without him. RIP
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our colleague, David Knowles. David was a talented journalist and a much-loved friend and a colleague. He will be greatly missed.

BBC tribute to David Knowles who led one of the most impactful podcasts ever. Ukraine: The Latest covered events in Ukraine daily with thoughtful, comprehensive analysis and concern. 100 million downloads. Brilliant work. Generous man.
What a tremendous loss. David led one of the best podcasts going and delivered some of the most thoughtful and comprehensive coverage of Ukraine on a daily basis since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion. A very talented guy with total dedication to journalism.

David was curious, kind and funny. Someone who radiated so much good it reflected onto all those around him. My newsroom little brother I will miss you so much. I’m a better human being having known you.

Today we mourn the loss of a brilliant journalist, but - more importantly - a magnificent human being. His listeners included ambassadors and the heads of US departments, but he never changed. He was utterly authentic and empathetic. Thank you, David. https://t.co/PossIfFdFt
