Successor TO WHAT OR WHOM?

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

"Cox has been described as the natural successor for the BBC's scientific programming by both David Attenborough and Patrick Moore."

One is not a successor *for* something. I suspect this is intended to denote or suggest that Attenborough and Moore, (though the latter is tagged as unattested) have described Cox as "natural successors" to themselves, but that's not what the text says. I am inclined to delete the paragraph in its entirety: it's nothing more than celebrity gossip in any case. Sebum-n-soda (talk) 17:20, 12 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
