Comedian Tim Brooke-Taylor has died at the age of 79 with coronavirus, his agent has confirmed to the BBC.

The entertainer, best known as one third of the popular 1970s show The Goodies, and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue, died on Sunday.

Fellow Goodies star Graeme Garden said he was "terribly saddened by the loss of a dear colleague and close friend of over 50 years".

"He was a funny, sociable, generous man who was a delight to work with."

Heard it on the car radio just now, dropping off supplies to aged mother-in-law (bear traps, cyanide etc) but this really knocked me for six... my favourite radio show has always been "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue"

I never knew Tim's name but caught some of his routine's. There is no better gift than to make others laugh.

Rest in Peace.
