(1/2) > >>

Simon:
Actress Ruth Madoc, who starred in the BBC sitcom Hi-de-Hi!, has died aged 79, her agent says.

Her agent said she died in hospital on Friday afternoon after surgery for a fall she had earlier in the week.

Phil Belfield of talent agency Belfield & Ward Ltd described her as a "unique talent loved by many".

Clive:
She was certainly the star of Hi-Di-Hi.  A fantastic actress.   :rip:

Simon:
Nothing against her, but I couldn't bear Hi-De-Hi, or 'Allo 'Allo, and LOTSW, which I never found as funny as a large majority of the population seemed to.

Clive:
I hated LOTSW because the BBC always managed to find a role for all those awful actors that were past their best.  Compo, George Roper, Thora Hurd, Nora Batty, Smiler, Pearl and dozens of others! 

Den:
I loved all three of them.   :laugh:
