Former Top Gear presenter Sue Baker dies after battle with motor neurone disease

The Top Gear team has remembered "much-loved" former presenter Sue Baker as an "exceptional motoring journalist" after her death at the age of 75. The writer and TV presenter had been suffering from motor neurone disease (MND) and died at home on Monday with her family around her, a statement on her Twitter confirmed.

It continued: "It is with great sadness, that we share the news of Sue's passing. A doting mother to Ian and Hannah, a loving grandmother to Tom and George, and a wonderful mother-in-law to Lucy.

"She was a talented and prolific writer, a charismatic TV presenter, and a passionate animal lover. She had a life and career that many would envy, but did it all with such grace that she was admired and respected by all who knew her. We know she meant so much to so many. Thank you to everyone who has supported her over the last few years as she battled with MND."
