MADCAP comedy legend Freddie Starr has been found dead at his Spanish home.
A carer discovered him on the floor of his Costa Del Sol apartment.
The entertainer was one of the biggest stars of the 70s, 80s and 90s.
Fans loved his wacky, wild, and unpredictable behaviour.
He starred on I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here in 2011 just a year after recovering from quadruple bypass surgery following a heart attack.
But he left the jungle show due to ill health and became a recluse after a comeback bid flopped.
Neighbours in the resort of Mijas told how Freddie had been a shadow of his old self after being hammered with a £960,000 legal bill defending historical sex abuse charges.
