Stars of stage and screen have paid tribute to another film and TV actor who died just before Christmas at the age of 58.

Ronan Vibert was in films such as Saving Mr Banks, the Lara Croft film The Cradle of Life with Angelina Jolie and the television series The Borgias.

Richard E Grant described the death of "my friend" as shocking, and Kathy Burke called it "charming".

Vibert, who was born in Cambridgeshire and raised in the Vale of Glamorgan, died last Thursday in Florida.

His other films include Tristan and Isolde, and The Snowman, which was based on the mystery novel by Jo Nesbo.

On television, his many credits include Poirot, Lewis and The Bill.

He also appeared in the BBC comedy series Gimme Gimme Gimme, of which star Kathy Burke tweeted: "Just heard of the death of the lovely Ronan Vibert. We first worked together at the Manchester Royal Exchange in the 80s. We had a great time together.

"Our favorite was seeing The Pogues, Glasgow Barrowlands on Paddy's night. Oh how we jumped."
