FILM and TV funnyman Hugh Dane, well-known for his role as Hank Tate the straight-shooting security guard on The Office, has died aged 75.

It’s understood Dane passed away on May 16, but attention to his death was only recently drawn publicly in a Facebook post by the Los Angeles Inner City Cultural Centre.

The post remembered him as a “loving husband, father, grandfather and friend.”
