Topic of some debate on this forum somewhere not so long ago, as I recall!

Another classic leaf falls from the tree.

Tis a shame to think we can only look forward to recording the loss of many of the original characters, but inevitable.

RIP.

I thought she was only 84. The imdb has her year of birth as 1920...

There was some debate about her age. Several sites lister her as 84, but her family confirmed she was actually 94.

Probably not the first person working in showbiz to shave a few years off her age :wink:

Well, Heather Suttie off of Beat 106 and who used to be on Live and Kicking DEFINITELY takes a year off her age.

She was in the same year at school as my brother. Not according to her Friends Reunited profile.....

I, on the other hand, am not a day over 98....

Indeed.

And was a pain in the arse at school as well, if I remember.

My brother probably has some stories about her which could be funny.

Wait a moment, wasn't she in the school production of Guys and Dolls? As a dancer? Removing her clothing?

Or was that someone else? My memory is fading, and I've drifted totally off-topic. Better delete me and lock the thread.
