What happened to the character John Tregorran on the BBC radio soap 'The Archers'?

Over the years some of the original cast members have died, left the show or retired and their characters have had to be replaced or killed off by the scriptwriters. 'John Tregorran' (Roger Hume, Basil Jones, Simon Lack, Philip Morant and Basil Jones) originally arrived in Ambridge in a gypsy caravan. Thoughtful and provocative, Tregorran was such a popular and charismatic character that listeners at Archers public events still ask about him - and about Carol Grey, whom he eventually married.
