Radio 4 devotee that I am, I was very saddened to hear (via Seb) that Linda Smith has died. I’ve always been rather fond of her comedy, ever since I heard her on Just a Minute, describing colonic irrigation as being “like CenterParcs for sweetcorn”.
Apparently she’d been battling cancer for 3 and a half years but never discussed it publicly. Now that takes true courage and determination, to just get on with it and not complain or whinge about it.
