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.
