Co-star in Fawlty Tower, Cleese, 77, payed tribute to Sanchs while he was interviewed by BBC as saying "a very nice, sweet man and just a brilliant farceur".

Cleese added: "He was just a delight, and if you met him, you'd never for a moment think he was a comedian.

"You'd think he was a bank manager, possibly retired. But then you stuck that moustache on him and he turned into a completely different human being."

Fawlty Towers co-writer Connie Booth, who played hotel maid Polly Sherman in the series, said Sachs "spoke to the world with his body as well as his mangled English."

She added: "It made him a universally beloved figure. It was a privilege and an education to work with him."
