Caroline Aherne R.I.P

And 2016 continues to be a shitter of a year by claiming another one.

:( RIP.

:(

Another legend gone, RIP Caroline Aherne. I loved Caroline Aherne in The Royle Family and as Mrs Merton. RIP Caroline, gone but not forgotten. x

Really sad to hear this, RIP.

Tortuio?

RIP.

Same age as my cousin who died 2 weeks ago - also cancer, and she was a doctor.

It's a chuffing epidemic now, and feel myself that's it's no longer "if" but "when".

:(

Denise "Yes, I had roast chicken"

Barbara "Oooh....."

Dave "And I had salt and vinegar"

One of the best from the Royles - Yes, rest in peace Caroline.

So sorry to hear this news.

That's Victoria Wood, Carla Lane, Caroline Ahere - all in 2016. :(

RIP.

Another enormous loss for Comedy.
You shall live on in the your work that I will be forever watching.

Watching The Mrs Merton Show on BBC1.
Would be great if they repeated the whole series at some point.

yes I hope they show the whole series I loved that show.

Very sad news. Loved Mrs Merton, in particular, and enjoyed The Royle Family. She was also great in The Fast Show.

RIP too, coincidentally, she was namechecked in Jon Ronson's book 'Frank', which I was listening to on Friday night. She formed part of Mr Sidebottom's comedy collective.

I was never a fan of The Royle Family, but loved 'Mrs Merton and Malcolm' and 'The Fast Show', with special reference to her teenage 'Janine' character.
