Tributes to ex-Tele executive Paul Jellett who coined Downtown Radio's name


Paul Jellett, who died recently, was a former senior executive with the Belfast Telegraph. He was 82.
The son of tobacconist Louis Jellett and his wife Hilda, he was educated at St Colman's College in Newry and worked for some time in England. Returning home, he joined the newspaper where he became classified advertising manager.
In the 1970s he won the prize for his entry of 'Downtown' in a competition to name a new commercial radio station. It is still going strong today.
Former colleague Terry McCaughey said: "Paul was a great boss. He was clever and eloquent, and a good salesman and manager. I learned a great deal from him."
