Very sad news, he wasn't quite the great stoneface that Buster Keaton was but he ran him close. You can see a line in understated facial denouement running here that goes on to Martin Freeman. And neither Keaton or Freeman had to put up with Basil Brush.

His character in Yes Minister, Bernard Woolley, was a master of eloquent and indeed elegant pedantry. A real hero to his humble admirers like myself.

A fine actor, a sad day.

He was in our party on a golfing trip to the Costa Del Sol in 2001. Thoroughly nice bloke, no airs and graces, lovely to talk to.

I will never forget standing on the tee of a par three when, in the group up ahead, he chipped in from off the green....immediately the Spanish air resounded with a cry from one of his playing partners of "Boom Boom Mr Derek!!!"

PM on R4 yesterday gave him a wonderful send-off.

His lines from Yes Minister are just amazing.....Deserved that send off last evening

Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me. Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing. Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial. Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid. Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.
