Television presenter and prankster Jeremy Beadle has died aged 59.

One of ITV's most popular hosts during the 1980s, Beadle had been suffering from pneumonia and was admitted to a London hospital last week.

 

He was best known for fronting variety show Game For a Laugh and the hidden camera programme Beadle's About.

 

In recent years he had battled poor health after being diagnosed with a mild form of leukaemia in 2005. He also had a cancerous kidney removed.

It's OK, he might be having us on. He'll turn up at the funeral with a fake beard and traffic warden outfit and clamp the herse.

I used to love You've been framed, although in hindsight it seems somewhat naff.

 

Still, RIP. :(

You're on a roll Bluestar.

 

RIP Jeremy, though tbh I thought he'd popped his clogs a long time ago, after falling into Lisa Riley's mouth and slowly being digested over a thousand years.

I'll always remember him for "Do you want a cup of tea?"

 

One of the funniest things that has ever happened.
