Oh no! I was only thinking of her today - yes, really. It was because I saw her in "All Creatures Great and Small" (great new series), the other night & was remembering her in other things.
I particularly remember her in a TV drama in the late eighties in which Diana Rigg played a murderous mother and grandmother. At the time she thanked the television coming for giving her the part of a lifetime. I now cannot remember what it was called but was based on a book which I had read - Mother Love? Maybe. It was brilliant as was she. I hope it is shown again in tribute to her.
She died of cancer but it sounds as though her last months were comfortable:-
"She spent her last months joyfully reflecting on her extraordinary life, full of love, laughter and a deep pride in her profession," from her daughter.
