Amazing talent. Sadly his dalliance with drink/drugs took its toll.
Always enjoyed his quick and dry wit back in the day. Only 65, no age at all......RIP

RIP Tony. He used to be on all the time in the 90s.
Very sorry to hear that, I well remember his contributions to Whose Line Is It Anyway? and OTT. I remember an interview with him from about twenty years ago in which he talks about being so depressed that he couldn't find the motivation to get out of bed or shower, at the peak of his depression.

Yes very sad. The documentary on his life and troubles was a real eye opener. His various addictions heavily influenced by the serial abuse he endured when he was young.
A real shame - he had recently started to work again, commenced a small tour where he did a Q&A and some improv with others and had only very recently launched a podcast
RIP
