British actor and comedian John Bird has died at the age of 86. 7NEWS
Rory Bremner led tributes to the beloved star, sharing some poignant words on“Deeply saddened to hear that the great John Bird has left us. One of the most modest of men and most brilliant of satirists. And one of the last surviving pillars of the anti-establishment,” he wrote.
“I used to watch from the wings and marvel at how the two friends made it look so effortless, so blissfully funny, their skill and enjoyment in the moment making light of the seriously detailed research that went into each piece.”Fans quickly responded to Bremner’s post with their own memories of the comedian, with one neighbour of his sharing a story.
