Tributes have come pouring in from the world of entertainment after the death of much loved Strictly Come Dancing judge Len Goodman at the age of 78.
Len had been battling bone cancer and, confirming his passing, a spokesperson for the entertainer, told MailOnline: "I can confirm he died peacefully over the weekend surrounded by his family."
Len is most famous for being one of the original judges on Strictly, when the smash hit programme launched in the summer of 2004. He stayed on the show for 12 years, becoming famous for his "SEVEN!" catchphrase, before bowing out and being replaced by current head judge Shirley Ballas in 2017.
