It is with great sadness that I write the news tonight.
Leonard Nimoy has died today aged 83. He brought joy to millions with his portrayal of Mr Spock in the original Star Trek series.
He had been suffering from chronic lung disease caused by smoking. I reported earlier this week that he had been taken into hospital with chest pains.
Please use the forums to share your thoughts on this great man, on this deeply sad day.
