    June Whitfield UK Comedy Actress Dead at 93

    The BBC website has just announced that the UK actress June Whitfield has died. In the statement, her agent said she died peacefully in her sleep Friday night (28/12).

    She had a long career appearing on stage and screen here in the UK with shows such as Terry & June, Hancock, the Carry On film series and she even popped up in an episode of Eastenders but is best known internationally as Edina's mum in Absolutely Fabulous.

    This is shitty news to hear. I grew up watching her on TV and she will be missed. R.I.P. and thanks for all the laughs June.

    Sad news, RIP June.
    I didn't realize who she was until you mentioned Ab Fab, one of my favorites.

    Definitely no new Ab Fabs, now that she's gone. Thank God they made the movie a few years ago.

    One of the best comedic talents Britain has ever had. Everything she did was perfection, a true legend. RIP June.
    Today you could be standing next to someone who is trying their best not to fall apart. So whatever you do today, do it with kindness.
