I never saw her be bad in anything and she had such a distinctive voice that just made you feel like you were at home with a friend when she spoke, such a wonderful actress. I also loved Christopher Beeny and it was wonderful to see him here again . R.I.P two wonderful acting legends.
I met and served Dame Thora hird and her husband in 1990 when i worked at the Strand Palace Hotel London ,she was a lovely polite lady and had a lasagne as i remember she signed a serviette for me too...what a star..
There's few great actors that everyday people, like myself can identify with. Thora was exceptionally talented and kept her feet firmly on the ground. XXX
Another brilliant TV play was 'Lost for Words' (1999) with Peter Postlethwaite about a lady who suffers a stroke and needs dedicated care in a nursing home. Beautifully and sympathetically played by both
I remember watching Thora with Freddie Frinton in Meet The Wife in 1963, as I couldn’t get over her strong accent, she had stuck in my mind ever since, sadly both Freddie and Thora were no longer with us.
@@johntomlinson6849 ok I didnt hear that but surely not the entire cast Anyway she was everyone's idea of the perfect granny or mother A national treasure definitely
Obviously a great actress. (See the comments below mine.) The only question, I would have loved to see/hear an answer to, is: Was she actually such a bad driver as she portrayed to be in Last of the Summer Wine. I'd think that bit of acting would be extremely difficult, but a lot of fun. (Remember the episode of her Driving Lesson. Gordon Wharmby and Mike Grady did a nice job there. As did Peter Sallis. "I'll walk home" :D) She still brings many smiles, to those who keep watching repeats of any of the many shows/films she acted in.
Dame Thora Hird OBE (as far as I am concerned) was hilarious and excellent entertainment. For me, mostly just with her facial expressions in Last of the Summer Wine. Response to video only.
I wish TV was like this again.
A real lady and a wonderful human being R.I.P.
Blimey, she’s been dead now for 20 years in 2003.
That is hard to believe - just shows you how time flies - the older you get the faster to goes @@jacksugden8190
I live 7 miles away from here
At a time when almost anyone is called a National Treasure, Dame Thora was the genuine article. A lovely lady and brilliant actress.
This was so lovely to watch, she was wonderful part of a generation the likes of which we will never see again. 😢
She was just amazing. A real national treasure, greatly missed,
Dame Thora Hird always reminded Me of My Grandmother, She was a lovely down to earth lady too. We lost a national treasure when Thora passed away.

I loved her stairlift ads, easily her best work
I was waiting for the 3 guys from Last of the Summer Wine to appear all the way through but they never did I wonder why ??
I think they mentioned just before Kathy Staff came on that everyone else had to stay in Holmfirth filming.
