Harry Savage, who appeared in the reality TV show Hunted, on Channel 4, has been found dead in his Putney home.

The 26-year-old was discovered unresponsive at around 9.15am last Friday (19 July) and pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.

The police arrested a man in his thirties at the house on Lower Common South and he has since been bailed pending further enquiries.

Officers are describing it as an ‘unexpected death’ and a postmortem was carried out over the weekend with the results of toxicology tests awaited.

Since the death was announced, tributes have poured in for Mr Savage with one describing him as a ‘beautiful soul’.

He appeared in the fourth series of Hunted in 2019 when he was a drama student alongside his brother Frank as one of 14 people attempting to elude a team of detectives. The episodes were recorded shortly after their mother’s death.
