She seems like such a lovely lady
And she's done a lot professionally, during a period that not many women worked outside the home.

Bet she is/would be a great Nan

And she really does have good recipes - her Victoria sponge has never failed me!

Oh I had no idea she lost her son

This is very, very sad. Poor Mary.

I'd never heard of her before this last year, and never watched her shows but she seems like a lovely lady. What a life, and how sad re her son.

I knew about her son as she talked about it on Desert Island Disks. Still made me cry though

evertime I watch it I want to stuff my face with food, its pretty hard on a diet.

I do love her though, she has been through so much.

Oh Gosh, it was so sad last night when she talked about her son - I had no idea!

I was struck by her need to please Daddy and gain his approval.
