French sociologist and philosopher Jean Baudrillard has died aged 77 at his home in Paris following a long illness.
Baudrillard, a leading post-modernist thinker, is perhaps best known for his concept of hyper-reality.

Actor John Inman, most famous for the comedy Are You Being Served?, has died in London aged 71, his spokesman said.
Inman made his name in the 1970s show as Mr Humphries, whose catchphrase "I'm free!" entered popular culture.
In recent years he was a pantomime regular, most often taking the role of the dame. He also made appearances in BBC comedy show Revolver in 2004.
