RIP Babs and respect to her husband. She is an icon of bygone times and should be remembered as such. I never realised she was only 4ft 10.
“ let that one rest ick, perhaps for another thread, another time”

You mentioned the gay thing ;-)
And the connection with criminals was brought up by someone else
and i have apologised for doing so to barsel for posting
Barabara has had Alzheimer's for 14 years and I believe the past few years has been particularly difficult and distressing. It is always sad to lose a loved one but sometimes the passing is a blessed relief.
perhaps you are right Barry, but a loss is a loss and her husband must be devastated.
Both Barbara and the late Mike Reid were at the funeral of Reggie Kray , it was a big affair in London's East end
i know, but the thread been derailed somewhat.
I think everyone is singing from the same hymn sheet re BWs deaths Emmie , it's an almost natural occurrence for people to add what the memories of her evoke
i don't understand why discussing her life is derailing a thread?
right from the start Bobbi, but Barsel may not appreciate the thread going so off course.
Perhaps not Emmie x
emmie - // right from the start Bobbi, but Barsel may not appreciate the thread going so off course. //

That may be, but instigating a thread gives neither ownership of it, or control of its path - that's just how the site works.
i think someone said that she liked the Krays, then its gone off in that direction
its a sad day for her family, and those that loved her.
I
But I don't think, or it should not, make any difference to anyone saying how sad they are at her passing, she was a British icon , I couldn't stand any of the Carry on films but she made her name in them, later to become the interminable Peggy " Gerrouta Ma Pab' Mitchell
i didn;t like any carry on films, nor EE, but as Chris pointed out she was noted for her charity work.
emmie - // i think someone said that she liked the Krays, then its gone off in that direction //

As advised, one of the memories evoked by Ms Windsor's sad passing is her known links with London gangland, specifically associations with the Krays.

I for one would never want that small aspect of her past to colour anyone's feelings about the sadness of her long difficult illness, and sad by blessed release from it, or indeed her varied and respcted acting career that was far more than her Carry On appearences.
RIP Barbara.
I don't watch soaps but do remember the Carry on films...
R.I.P Babs
RIP Barbara x
