Actor Richard Briers, best known for his role in TV's The Good Life, has died at the age of 79, his agent has said.

The star, who was also an accomplished stage actor, had been battling a serious lung condition for several years.

Briers died "peacefully" at his London home on Sunday, his agent added.

Briers recently blamed years of smoking for his emphysema.

Such a sad loss, I loved The Good Life.

Very sad news, good actor and such a recognisable voice. I loved him in both the Good Life and Ever Decreasing Circles. If I'm not mistaken was he a narrator on Roobarb & Custard too?

He was one of the nice guys. Very talented and genuine man. RIP
