  • This video is the finest Mary Millar tribute of all. It is a mixture of Geezworld's original video tribute and my tribute video together to make a really good video to remember a lovely,warm hearted woman by the name of Mary Millar who played Rose 2 in a BBC comedy show of the early 1990's called Keeping Up Appearances. And unlike any of the other tribute videos this one has Mary Millar singing a beautiful song by the name of Beauty And The Beast from the london cast recording of the musical version of Beauty And The Beast in 1996/1997. Mary Millar passed away on the 10th of november 1998 of ovarian cancer. Neither Geezworld234 or Adam060756 claim any true ownership of this video content. It is for entertainment viewing only and is not a money making thing. We both dedicate this video to Mary Millar. Feel free to rate and post comments enjoy!!

    I was lucky to work with Mary - I was Musical Director when she played 'Mrs Anna' in Rodgers and Hammerstein's The King and I, in a regional theatre production in the UK. She was fabulous to work with, beautiful and funny and utterly professional.

    As an American, I am so missing the stars of Keeping up Appearances and Are You Being Served. They were an important part of my life. The whole USA loved them. Gone but not forgotten.

    I didn't know she had died. I'm kind of sorry I read this. Oh well, she was so likeable. If some women played this part, you'd just say, "Oh, she was just the "town tramp", but she brought SO MUCH HUMOR AND HEART TO THE ROLE......................we really LOVED HER!!!! The lady that took her place was "OK", but she didn't have that same "softness and vulnerablity" that made Mary Millar SO LOVABLE!!!!!! My belated condolences to her family, both off-screen and on.

    Found out recently that she had a fantastic career in musical comedy. She was the original Madame Giry in Phantom of the Opera. But her Rose was the best, especially when you consider she was a replacement. My favorite was when she wanted to be a nun and was whacked out on tranquilizers.

    How sad, I was watching all the bloopers then there were videos saying how many of the cast had past away, this show used to make my family's nights feel warm and normal, like a fire in winter or a soft freshly washed blanket, the sound of the show gave our home a serene feel, in Tasmania English shows are really treasured for that reason, thank goodness for DVDs and reruns, then it feels like they are with always, they have left great comfort for the people who adored their characters, God bless our rose 🌹 🤗😔🌟.

This is such a beautiful song and her rendition is absolutely touching. Death always makes me uneasy even though it's a part of life. She strikes me as someone who was extremely brave throughout her precious life, even through the cancer that took her life. I am so grateful to have been exposed to her remarkable talent.

One I discovered lately is "Ann Veronica". it was release on CD in Late September 2015 by Stage Door Records. Long my she be remembered,

I hope her family take comfort in knowing how much Mary was loved by KUA fans
