Gutted at the loss of another great actress from the history of Doctor Who. Mary was a lovely actress, and was wonderful with Doctor Who's fans.

The husband of Doctor Who actress Mary Tamm died just hours after giving a eulogy at her funeral, her agent has said.

Marcus Ringrose is believed to have had a heart attack at home in Battersea, south London, after Tuesday's funeral.

Barry Langford said Mr Ringrose had been at his computer replying to well-wishers who wrote to him after his wife's death when he collapsed.

Tamm, 62, who was best known for playing the first incarnation of the Doctor's companion Romana alongside Tom Baker, had been suffering from cancer for 18 months when she died last month.

She had a long career on stage and screen, with roles in films including The Odessa File and The Likely Lads, and a recurring role in soap Brookside as Penny Crosbie.
