I understand that he died on Thursday. He was well know to those who didn't watch his programmes. He was a bit of a celebrity.

It says "heart attack" in this very short article. Didn't his Dad just die about only 3 or 4 years ago?

This is very sad and I am sorry to hear it, he had a wife and I think two children so my thoughts are with them.
