Chamberlain earned the title "king of the mini-series" for his leading roles in Shogun and The Thorn Birds.


He died late on Saturday night local time (10:15 GMT Sunday) in Waimanalo, Hawaii, after suffering complications from a stroke, his publicist Harlan Boll confirmed - just hours before he would have turned 91.


Martin Rabbett, Chamberlain's longtime partner, called him an "amazing and loving soul" in a statement.
