British actor and comedian Tony Slattery has died aged 65 following a heart attack, his partner has confirmed.
Slattery was known for his quick-witted improvisations on the popular Channel 4 show Whose Line Is It Anyway?, from 1988 onwards.
The Londoner also played comedic and serious roles in films such as The Crying Game, Peter's Friends and How to Get Ahead in Advertising.
He earned an Olivier Award nomination for best comedy performance for his role as Gordon in Tim Firth's play Neville's Island.

I remember him being funny on the British Whose Line? My favorite - besides the ones who carried over to the American version - was Josie Lawrence, who did in fact appear in two Drew Carey episodes.
Comedy Central used to air the UK version when the Drew Carey version became popular.
