GEORGINA COOKSON DIES

Yet more sad news here at TUW with the announcement from her daughter than Georgina Cookson, AKA Mrs Butterworth from "Many Happy Returns", passed away earlier this month at the age of 92.

Also appearing in the episode "A, B, and C" she had a long and distinguished stage and screen career appearing alongside such greats as Terry Thomas, Tony Hancock, and stole the show in "Loathe Story", a 1970s episode of "Steptoe and Son".

Speaking on an online forum, her daughter stated "She had a wonderful, long life, ending up in Sydney, where her son lived, as opposed to San Francisco, where her daughter lived, because the swimming was better in Sydney! She (and all of her wonderful stories) will be sorely missed by her family. We love you George!"

The Unmutual Website would like to extend its sincerest sympathies to Georgina's family and friends.
