Comedian and writer Barry Cryer has died at the age of 86, his representatives have confirmed.
Cryer wrote for several comedy giants, including The Two Ronnies, Bob Hope, Tommy Cooper and Morecambe and Wise.
He regularly appeared as a panellist himself on shows such as Just A Minute and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue.
Leading the tributes on Twitter, broadcaster Gyles Brandreth said Cryer was "just the loveliest guy; funny and generous".

I think he was preparing to go out on a short tour. Not sure if it happened. He was on our local BBC radio station a few weeks back, and I have to say, he sounded quite rough, with an awful cough.
