That’s made me sad. A national treasure if ever there was one.

Absolutely. One of a kind.

That is sad news

Amazing actor and good woman. I’m ridiculously sad.

I just sort of imagined her going on forever. Sad there won’t be any new stuff. Might have to start a watch of her back catalogue.

This absolutely it’s imperative especially if he does win the election, really hope he doesn’t but stranger things have happened.
I fed up with the frothing & hypocrisy now, won’t deny I was disappointed by the clothes & glasses just hoping Labour get a hold of the comms another one aghast at Beth Rigby thought she was than cheap shots & lazy reporting.
thanks for that article Cassie makes really interesting reading.
very sad news about Dame Maggie Smith, her one liners in Downton made it worth watching.

It really does feel that way.

Yes very sad about Maggie Smith. She really was a national treasure.

What an extraordinary career Maggie Smith had.

I agree.

Just hoping Trump does not get elected.

Yes when i pointed out that all political leaders moved around during CV, i was told that Boris and Sunak had legitimate business reasons to move from Downing street to Yorkshire or Chequers and back again.... but apparently Starmer did not.

The double standards and hypocrisy is mind blowing and as for Rigby, jeez how much more bias could she be?

Starmer has made a well worded and heartfelt tribute to Dame Maggie Smith. Posters on Facebook are using it to have a go at him and even claiming that she died because he took her winter fuel allowance away.

I'm gutted by the news. She was one of the greatest actors ever in my lifetime.

claiming that she died because he took her winter fuel allowance away.

You don’t know whether to laugh or cry at that level of stupidity, do you?

I like his level of snippiness at the borrowed flat tbh.

Same. What a treasure.

Sadly it sums up a whole new level of stupidity we are facing.

And these people are allowed to vote (and drive and reproduce!)

Ok, we don't all agree with removal of WFA or even agree but not the threshold.

But to try and claim a really rich woman died because the WFA she didn't need and wouldn't have been paid in a few months time hadn't been paid is actually a whole new level of disrespect rather than idiocy. Maggie had family. It's horrid to use her dad and tragic death for political again.

In fact I find it abhorrent

And these people are allowed to vote (and drive and reproduce!)

We don't know in which country......

We can always hope it's not the UK 🤞😂

I'm so fed up of the clothes story. The BBC just said that Labour have done nothing wrong because everything was properly declared. So it's a non blooming story. But they are still going to witter on about it and there will still be people on here looking for anything at all to whine about labour for. I can't bear to look at any threads over there >>> anymore. You can't beat down all the stupid posts popping up.

I think I need a holiday.

It’s never ending, isn’t it? cardibach had it spot on.

It really is.

And cardibach usually does!

They were laughing about it on gogglebox.

Awwww thanks!

Johnson apparently planned a military raid in Holland to snatch back the astra zeneca vaccine according to his book

But he such a funny bloke....

Oh what a top bloke! Almost like superman. 🤔

I have the concept of a plan...

He's making stuff up for his book.
