"After a long and extraordinary life on and off the stage, our darling father Timothy West died peacefully in his sleep yesterday evening," his children said.
"His versatility allowing him to play a broad range of characters. He excelled as a leading actor in numerous Shakespeare productions while recurring roles in British television's two most popular soap operas... kept him in the public eye in later life."
"West was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in recognition of his contribution to drama and acting."
