Veteran musician Wilko Johnson, whose machine-gun guitar style and manic stage presence was a major influence on Punk, has died.

The English musician found fame with the 1970s pub-rock band Dr Feelgood and later played with Ian Dury before embarking on a four-decade solo career.

He also starred in two series of Game of Thrones as the mute executioner Ser Ilyn Payne.

Ten years ago he survived what was initially diagnosed as a terminal case of pancreatic cancer.

Johnson refused chemotherapy to embark on a farewell tour.
