Actor Derek Fowlds, known to millions for playing Bernard Woolley in Yes Minister, has died at the age of 82. He also played sergeant-turned-publican Oscar Blaketon in ITV police drama Heartbeat for 18 years, and was "Mr Derek" on the Basil Brush show in the 70s. The actor died at Royal United Hospital in Bath on Friday morning, after having suffered with pneumonia. "You couldn't have met a nicer person ever" said his assistant Helen Bennett.
