Luca Giurato has died . The journalist and TV host, 84 years old , was struck down today around lunchtime by a sudden heart attack while he was on holiday in Santa Marinella , a town on the Roman coast.
The doctors' intervention was useless and they could only certify the death.
The news was confirmed by his wife Daniela Vergara, also a Rai journalist.
Thus leaves us one of the most popular faces on the small screen, among the most likeable and most loved by the general public, also thanks to the gaffes often highlighted over the years by "Striscia la Notizia".
Born in Rome in 1939, he spent almost his entire career at Rai. He entered the world of journalism as a reporter for Paese Sera, then he was director of Gr1 and deputy director of Tg1 until 1990.
Then he was part of numerous television programs. From Domenica In to La vita in diretta, passing through Quelli che il calcio and numerous other programs. But his face is inextricably linked to Unomattina , a program that he hosted for more than 10 years.
In addition to his son and his wife, the journalist also leaves behind two brothers and a sister: Flavio, a singer-songwriter, Blasco, a director of photography, and Claudia, a geologist.
