Gorden Kaye Sue HodgeBBC • EXPRESS NEWSPAPERS

Sue Hodge 'cared for Gorden Kaye in his final days'

Tributes have been pouring in for the much-loved actor – who played René Artois in the long-running BBC sitcom – since his family confirmed that he had died at the age of 75 following a heartbreaking two-year battle with dementia.

A source has now claimed that his co-star and former on-screen love interest Sue visited Gorden at the care home where he passed away in Ilkley, West Yorks, right up until the end.

The insider stated: “He had very bad dementia for the last few years. A lot of what he said didn’t make sense when you spoke to him and unfortunately you could tell he was gone.

"It was a sad end for such a lovely guy. Sue was apparently very good and would often come and visit him."

“Gorden hadn’t been capable of performing for a few years now but I think he’ll be remembered as one of our best comic actors," they added to the Daily Star.

The claims come after Vicki Michelle – who played Yvette Carte-Blanche – led tributes to Gorden on Monday.

She said: "So sad to hear news of Gorden Kaye. A brilliantly talented actor consummate professional, loved the world over. There'll never be another Rene."


Shane Allen, controller of BBC comedy commissioning, commented: “Gorden Kaye was a terrific comic actor whose signature tole, Rene Artois, earned his place in the comedy hall of fame."

“He was instrumental in making ‘Allo ‘Allo! such a long-running and well-loved series. His work lives on and thoughts are with friends and loved ones at this sad time," he continued.

'Allo! 'Allo! centred on the exploits of resistance fighters in World War Two German-occupied France.

He appeared in all 84 episodes, but his last role was in sketch show Revolver in 2004.
