Tommy Walsh, a television presenter and builder known for appearing on Ground Force, has died aged 69.
The Hackney, London native passed away peacefully following a prolonged illness, with his family beside him.
Walsh co-hosted the BBC gardening and home makeover programme from 1997 until 2005, working alongside Alan Titchmarsh and Charlie Dimmock.
At its height, the show was watched by 12 million people.
A builder by profession, Walsh later featured on other home improvement programmes, including Homes Under The Hammer and Clean It, Fix It.
He also appeared on Celebrity Fit Club and made guest appearances on programmes including Blankety Blank and Pointless.
During a talk for The Swallows Head & Neck Cancer charity in early 2024, Walsh disclosed that doctors had identified a three-centimetre tumour in his lung.
He had been diagnosed with throat cancer in 2022 but made a complete recovery.
Walsh is survived by his wife Marie and their three children, Charlotte, Natalie and Jonjo.
