Iconic children's entertainer Barry Chuckle has died at the age of 73, according to his manager.

Chuckle spent much of his life as one half of the comedy duo The Chuckle Brothers — alongside his brother Paul. Together, they were the stars of the BBC's show ChuckleVision, which ran for 21 seasons between 1987 and 2009. In recent years, the Chuckle Brothers remained in the headlines for a variety of reasons — including releasing a grime remix of their classic To Me To You song, featuring rapper Tinchy Stryder. No cause of death has been reported as of yet. Tributes have poured in for the beloved entertainer. https://twitter.com/chrismorrisbits/status/1026012583151710208 https://twitter.com/gradowrestling/status/1026013283013287938 https://twitter.com/AngelaRayner/status/1026014480315105280 https://twitter.com/ourrachblogs/status/1026012942150643712 https://twitter.com/SmithySoccerAM/status/1026014397624287232 https://twitter.com/MikillPane/status/1026013855363883008
