Just breaking now.

RIP Sir Bruce, one of the last old school variety acts that could dance, entertain, present.

A career that spanned decades - performed since the age of 14 until two years ago. Remarkable.

Aw no, that's so sad RIP.

[Samantha]

Can't believe it, rest in peace .

[Conor]

RIP Brucey, gunna miss you

This has actually made me really sad, one of my favourite celebrities - watched a documentary a few years ago on him and it was amazing his work ethic, a really nice man too. Anyone like him who comes back against all odds and survives that many career ups and downs like has to be admired. Joan Rivers, Sir Bruce Forsyth... don't take Dame Angela Lansbury anytime soon.

So sad, such a genuinely lovely man who did so much for TV & entertainment as a whole. Will be hugely missed. RIP

[Joe]

Never liked him unfortunately, no justification as to why just never did. Still such a shame, massive loss to entertainment and to many hearts. RIP Bruce!

[lemons]

[scottish]

[despect]

A real shame, he did so much for TV & Entertainment although pretty sure he was quite ill or at least had a lot of health issues. Even so, he'll be missed!
