Drag queen Danny La Rue died last night aged 81.
The entertainer was best known for his impersonations of female celebrities such as Elizabeth Taylor, Zsa Zsa Gabor and Margaret Thatcher.
He had lived for many years with his partner and manager, Jack Hanson, until Hanson died from a stroke in 1974.
The star had been suffering from cancer and died at his home after a short illness.
His spokeswoman said: "Danny died peacefully in his sleep just before midnight last night after a short illness.
"His beloved companion Annie Galbraith was with him at their home in Kent."
