When he was on Desert island Discs, he chose several pieces of choral music and Sue Lawley said, 'Do you sing yourself?' 
'Sing?' he replied, 'with this accent I can barely speak.'

And some years ago I wrote him a letter supporting his stance on the 'rationalization' of English spelling (anti), to which he sent me a very charming reply. I liked him vey much.
RIP, Mr Sewell.
