Tony Slattery, who has died of a heart attack aged 65, showed his great talent for improvisational comedy on the Channel 4 show Whose Line Is It Anyway? He often appeared as one of the four performers creating characters, scenes and songs based on suggestions by its host, Clive Anderson, or the studio audience.
“Whose Line is just four people and a couple of stools,” Slattery enthused. “It’s just a brilliantly simple idea. The audience love to see you thinking on your feet.”
