Magnus Magnusson remains most famous for his work on Mastermind, including the iconic phrase, "I've started, so I'll finish."

Commenting on the news that Magnus Magnusson, an East Dunbartonshire resident, has passed away aged 77, Jo Swinson said:

"News of Magnus Magnusson's death is deeply saddening. It is a privilege to have had as one of my constituents such an eminent figure in the world of broadcasting, journalism and history.

"Though the show will go on, Mastermind will always be synonymous with Magnus Magnusson. For this and his other great contributions to his adopted homeland of Scotland, he will be both sadly missed and long remembered."

    If you are a resident of the East Dunbartonshire constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
