London: Legendary actor Peter O'Toole, best known for his role in "Lawrence Of Arabia", was laid to rest here Dec 21.

Peter passed away Dec 14 following a long illness. He was 81.

The service, which was attended by his ex-wife, Welsh actress Sian Phillips, was followed by a wake at the late actor's house.

During the funeral, his daughter Kate O'Toole addressed the congregation and said: "The world has lost a great actor, but I'm not concerned with that. I simply have lost a great dad and the best friend I ever had. Daddy made me laugh more than anyone else I have ever met in my life."
