The broadcaster presented That's Life! for two decades and went on to establish two national helplines, including Childline.
Sir Nicholas Winton's story became national news after his appearance on the show in February 1988.

The Bafta-winning broadcaster, who announced a lung cancer diagnosis in 2023 and became a prominent assisted-dying campaigner, has died.
