As you say CD some of the characters have sadly gone and that has taken a lot of the heart of RT. I suppose people will say the reason for the demise is real life and maybe so but I feel a lot of the demise of certain things is down to the attitude of people, a lot of them in my opinion seem to think the world revolves around them and there is no one more important than them and I have noticed as I get older, less attention is paid to you, as if you mean less and less with each passing day, also I have noticed the demise of certain parts of our language such as PLEASE and THANK YOU or even the politeness of holding a door open for someone amongst other small signs that showed people you saw them and cared and they meant something.

So maybe even all these little things have helped with the demise of RT along the way.
