Len Goodman was a treasured TV legend who warmed the nation's hearts each Saturday night as a judge on Strictly Come Dancing.
The 78-year-old star - who died following a battle with bone cancer - captured an adoring allegiance of fans when he signed up for the hit BBC show in 2004.
Famed for his witty one-liners and 'SevEN!' scoring catchphrase, the professional Ballroom dancer eventually quit the show after a 12-year stint, before appearing in the state-side spin-off - Dancing With The Stars.
