Same here. Had no idea she was as old as 83! I was only a young kid but watched that detective series she was in around the mid 80's ? Can't remember what that was called either. Was it the Gentle Touch? That rings a bell but sure she was in something else?

Or C.A.T.S Eyes, A sort of spin off, For us a bit older she did appear in a couple of the "Confession Films"

I read that Olds yes. Thanks. Weird. Picture doesn't even jog my memory either. Can't say I recognise him nor his name.

I'm in good company then. Mind you, in the 80s I saw little football as I worked most Saturdays in the Austin-Rover plant here in Swindon. Had a stiff mortgage to meet.

Was thinking about her just last week.

I was reminded of the time I was on a lunchtime walk in Green Park some 6 years ago and I immediately recognised Alfred Molina walking arm in arm with an older lady I thought could have been his mum. A quick google search on my mobile and I realised that that was actually his wife, Jill Gascoigne.

When she sprang to mind last week I did a bit more research and found out that by the time I saw her, she'd already had the first onset of Alzheimer's, which is sad. What was even sadder is that I read that Alfred Molina had all but abandoned her recently and was already shacked up with the director of the Frozen films. Hey ho.

Always seemed to have a right dirty look on her face , One that could empty yer wallet and you wouldn't really give a $hit about her doing it.
