RIP Caroline Aherne aka Mrs Merton

[loyalmiller]

A lot of famous people from have died this year and with the exception of Ronnie Corbett my usual reaction to the news was 'oh have they'
When my wife came in and said 'she's died from Royle family' I assumed she meant Liz Smith or Sue Johnston. When she said Caroline Aherne I simply refused to believe it and scoured the net for confirmation.

Brilliant comedy writer and must've been a good seller, because as brilliant as the Royle family was it must have taken some selling to sell a sitcom about an idle scouse family all set in one room to the corporates.

RIP Caroline.....

Massive shock for me us well.

The other one that was similar for me was Victoria Wood, like you, my wife said 'her from dinnerladies' and I immediately assumed Anne Reid or maybe Thelma Barlow.

Losing some people this year and many way before their time.

Puts into perspective all the stupid bickering on here.

A young age to have passed away, sad to hear of the Ladies passing.
