Terry was, reportedly, found dead in his flat in Walthamstow, East London on Friday. No cause has been given yet for his sudden death.
Actors including Erkkan Mustafa - who played Roland - and Robert Craig Morgan - who played Justin Bennett have been quick to express their sorrow.
Erkkan told the Mirror, "He'll be missed by so many people. He had the biggest heart. He was always fun to be around." And Robert wrote on a 'Grange Hill' blog: "I can not find the words to describe my shock and utter sadness on hearing my good friend and Grange Hill colleague, Terry Sue-Patt has passed away. Terry was a beautiful person, who I loved from the first time I met him.
