Rolf Harris and Speight's SMart co-host Kirsten O’Brien were among well-wishers who turned out to pay tribute to the late children's TV presenter at the Parish Church of Saint Paul in Covent Garden.
His father Oliver, who described Speight as a "shining beacon", launched a foundation for artistic youngsters in honour of his son.
An emotional Rolf Harris performed a collection of his songs at the service, while well-wishers shared amusing anecdotes about the 42-year-old's life.
Speight hanged himself at London’s Paddington station in April, three months after fiancée Natasha Collins died from a drug overdose at the flat they shared in St. John's Wood.
