Retired insurance professional, 73, was en route to Australia with his wife for six-week holiday when plane hit by severe turbulence

Kitchen, a retired insurance professional turned amateur dramatics performer, had travelled to Singapore on Monday on the 10pm flight from Heathrow.

Jill Dimond, a close friend and neighbour, said: “He was a well-loved man. He was clever, funny, a fantastic performer, deeply caring about theatre. It was his passion.” Kitchen set up Thornbury Musical Theatre Group in retirement and performed in a Dick Whittington pantomime last Christmas. The theatre group has two forthcoming productions this year.
