    2016 Needs to "insert suitable expletives" and stop killing the fun !!!

    Not always my cup of tea (Dinner-ladies) but some of her work with Julie Walters was comedy genius
    If Wisdom is the coordination of "knowledge and experience" and its deliberate use to improve well being then how come "Ignorance is bliss"

    I quite liked Victoria Wood, much prefer her over the likes of Jo Brand and the 2 that were in Absolutely Fabulous (Joanna Lumley & Jennifer Saunders), same can be said for Dawn French.

    Was watching Dinner Ladies a few weeks back on Gold and it always gives a chuckle, she was a fun actress, such a shame.

    2016 needs to wrap this crap in, so many people have died this year already it is unbelievable

    Probably the first comedian I really liked, and one of my top two overall. Great shame.

    Grew up around the time VW was at her TV peak and never really "got" her comedy, but recently randomly found some of her music/piano material and it's excellent.

    Real shame

    "Let's Do It" remains one of the most originally funny songs Ive ever heard.

    A real loss to the world.

    oh....

    that's very sad indeed

    "Beat me on the Bottom with a Woman's Weekly " was a classic moment

    But her role in the film about the women's Voluntary work in WW2 was genius too "Housewife,49"

    so so sad to see her die
