Accolades
In 1999 more than 50 Members of Parliament signed a House of Commons motion, congratulating Hall on celebrating 40 years in broadcasting. The motion, by former Labour sports spokesman Tom Pendry, calls Hall an "icon with the youth of today" with his football reporting on BBC Radio 5 Live.
Hall was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2012 New Year Honours for services to broadcasting and charity.
