Terry Jones' agent confirms the comedian and director passed away after living with a rare form of dementia since 2016.

Along with his roles in Monty Python's Flying Circus, Jones directed some of the groups biggest and most quotable films including The Holy Grail, The Meaning of Life, and Life of Brian.

He died last night after what his family calls, "a long, extremely brave but always good humoured battle."
