Oh what a shame. I loved Gladys Pugh. So funny. We took DD to see Ruth in panto once. I think she played Robin Hood. She used her own voice and the children were shouting 'Hi De Hi'. RIP Ruth.

Very sad. More so for me as I’ve met her several times as there is an extended family connection. She was lovely in real life too.

She’d suffered a fall apparently & posted ‘don’t worry about me I’ll be back soon’.
RIP dear lady. You brought sunshine to many.
