The finance and property director of the BBC, John Smith, paid tribute to Evans. He said: "Six feet 11 inches in his stockinged feet, Chris was never an easy man to overlook. Few who met him forgot him – and not only for his height but also his engagement, his common touch, his infectious enthusiasm, drive and good humour.
"Chris gave the Broadcasting House building its blueprint, its management vision and charted it through its obstacle-ridden inception process, achieving approval from Westminster city council in record time."
