I loved The Fast Show growing up, and The Royle Family is easily my favourite British sitcom. Sad loss

The original Royle Family series were an absolute masterpiece, Mrs Merton (and Malcolm) also. Another resident of Timperley too. Gutting news.

A guid dram
Indeed. A sad loss. I knew she'd battled cancer on and off over the years but unfortunately this time lost the battle.

She was brilliant in most of the stuff she either starred in from the Fast Show, Mrs Merton and writing alongside Craig Cash in The Royce Family with the only irritating thing was that infantile voice she and Cash adopted over the years. That's nitpicking I know but she will be remembered as one of the great female comedienne's we've had.

RIP

RIP. I too was a fan of The Royce Family and its unflinchingly realistic portrayal of northern family life.

So sorry to hear that she has lost her cancer battle. Genius comedy writing talent and even when ill the essential voice of Gogglebox.

Another who went too soon and who will be missed. I loved The Fast Show with all her different characters and The Royle Family was a classic. RIP.

Oi! You can't claim good British people as your own when you don't WANT to be British! 'One of the great female comedienne's YOU'VE had' please!

Is there such a thing as a male comedienne by the way? :hesk:

Quite sad to read in the papers that she died at home alone as her family didn't realize just how poorly she was.
