Farewell to Una Stubbs

 She was Mrs Hudson in Sherlock, Aunt Sally in Worzel Gummidge, Alf Garnett's daughter in Till Death Us Do Part, and Cliff Richard's girlfriend in Summer Holiday.  She danced with Lionel Blair's ensemble in the 1960s, and I remember her appearing on Cliff Richard's TV show in the 1970s.  She was also the team captain opposite Lionel Blair in the game show Give Us a Clue.  I've even heard her in a Big Finish Doctor Who audio drama, The Horror of Glam Rock, alongside the 8th Doctor Paul McGann and his audio companion Lucie Miller!


Here she is in Summer Holiday.

That's a long and varied career, including several well loved characters, so I was sorry to hear today that Una Stubbs has died, aged 84.
