"Comic actor Alan Sues, a star of US television series Rowan And Martin's Laugh-In, has died at the age of 85.
Known for his outrageous, camp persona, Sues had several recurring characters on the comedy series, including Big Al - an effeminate sport reporter and Uncle Al the Kiddie's Pal.
His close friend Michael Gregg Michaud told the Associated Press that Sues had died of cardiac arrest on Thursday at his home in West Hollywood.
His final role was a 2009 short film.
Artificially Speaking premiered at Dances with Films, an independent film festival in Santa Monica, California.
Born in 1926, Sues served in the army during World War II. After the war, he trained as an actor and made his debut on Broadway in the play Tea and Sympathy, directed by Oscar-winner Elia Kazan."
