The Vicar Of Dibley actor Trevor Peacock has died aged 89, his agent has confirmed.
The actor played the lovable but dim-witted Jim Trott in the comedy series alongside its main star Dawn French.
His family said in statement: “Trevor Peacock, actor, writer and song-writer, died aged 89 on the morning of March 8th from a dementia-related illness.”
Parish council member Jim won viewers’ hearts with his catchphrase of “no no no no…” and his cheeky innuendo.
Although most famous for the long-running Vicar of Dibley, Peacock was also an accomplished Shakespearean actor, starring in a number off BBC productions including Titus Andronicus, Twelfth Night and Henry V.
The actor also appeared in the 1990 movie version of Hamlet and a 2000 production of Don Quixote.
And he was a successful musician and songwriter. He appeared with the Beatles in a 1964 television special Around the Beatles, and wrote a number of pop hits.
