Pain, or damage, don't end the world. Or despair, or fucking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man, and give some back. - Al Swearengen, Deadwood.

Oh no - she was just so talented, and far too young.

A terrible loss. Such a wonderful talent as writer and performer.

I think that she was one of the few modern comedians whowas funny without being obscene.

Heard on my way home from work.  Yet another genius has left us. :(

We all mourn for the famous who touch us because they are a part of the fabric of our lives. I've cried with laughter at Victiria Wood; so have millions of others. And I spent Sunday evenings in my pjs and dressing gown watching The Two Ronnies with my parents and my grandmother, and I've lain in the dark marvelling at the power of a Bowie song, and millions of others understand that too. When we lose those who touch us like this we need to share it, because the loss is a collective one.

I think what I liked about her most was the value and respect she gave to ordinary people in her writing, in her songs, in her acting. Her talents were immense, and I both treasure what she produced, and feel sad that there is to be no more. My thoughts are focused on her family and friends at this time.

She will be greatly missed. So many comic lights gone out here.
