Dimond Geezer Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 Rip. Last one out, please turn off the lights :-(
buctootim Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 Real shame. Not really my kind of humour but a really likeable figure. I saw a tv crew filming on Hungerford pedestrian bridge a couple of years ago and peered at the presenter to see if it was anyone I recognised. She saw me looking and gave me a big smile and a little wave. RIP
shurlock Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 An obituary on here for a female comic. The times they are a changin.
Ziggy Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 I saw here in Birmingham about 25 years ago. She was absolutely brilliant. What a terrible shame. RIP.
eurosaint Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 A real talent, taken far too young ! RIP Victoria
Lighthouse Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 Was never really my cup of tea but 'Let's do it' had me in stitches the first time I heard it.
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 (edited) Well slap me on the bottom with the Women's Weekly! What a genuinly talented lady and what a sad loss. At her best I can think of few funnier or more original comedians. Although not everyone's 'cup of tea' I suppose methinks that 'Dinnerladies' was a work of near genius and perhaps the best sit-com of its era. Victoria wrote and starred in it of course, but he way she made sure her co-stars in that wonderful ensemble cast got most of the best lines speaks of a generosity of spirit that is rare indeed. And if you didn't laugh at her iconic 'Acorn Antiques' then there's just no hope for you. Edited 20 April, 2016 by CHAPEL END CHARLIE
CB Fry Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 An obituary on here for a female comic. The times they are a changin. This made me actually laugh out loud. Have to say was one of those celebrity deaths which do feel like a mini shock. Clearly we weren't ready for her to leave us just yet. A supreme talent and very hard-worker. She's the kind of person I'd want my daughters to aspire to be.
Jonnyboy Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 An obituary on here for a female comic. The times they are a changin. When was the last time a female comic died? Cant have been many really.
Lighthouse Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 When was the last time a female comic died? Cant have been many really. Joan Rivers and Linda Smith spring to mind.
the colonel Posted 20 April, 2016 Posted 20 April, 2016 'hit me on the bottom with a Woman's Weekly' RIP. I still laugh at reruns of Dinner Ladies.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 21 April, 2016 Posted 21 April, 2016 Made me laugh when I first saw her perform it and still cracks me up.
CB Fry Posted 21 April, 2016 Posted 21 April, 2016 Joan Rivers and Linda Smith spring to mind. Linda Smith died ten years ago.
Lighthouse Posted 21 April, 2016 Posted 21 April, 2016 Linda Smith died ten years ago. I know. They're the only two I can think of.
hypochondriac Posted 21 April, 2016 Posted 21 April, 2016 I know. They're the only two I can think of. I suppose looking to the future you have the likes of French and Saunders and Ruby wax maybe?
