While updating and checking information on my blog I came across the sad news of the death of Gabrielle Blunt on June 10, 2014. She had a small scene in the second episode of the first series of Inspector Morse as Mrs Evans, Nicholas Quinn’s cleaning lady.
She appeared in many of Britain’s favourite TV shows; Crossroads, Dr. Finlay’s Casebook, Within These Walls, Emmerdale (23 episodes as Nellie Ratcliffe 1978-79), Crown Court, Rumpole of the Bailey and the list goes on. Her last TV role was in the TV show Heartbeat in 2001.
This may seem an odd obituary to include on my blog as she appeared for only about two minutes. But, I write this blog not only for my love of the Morse universe but to keep the memory alive of all the actors who have graced the Morse universe as a thank you for being part of great show be it Morse, Lewis or Endeavour.
R.I.P.
I just watched the episode and she gave a very good performance, and her ‘butter’ knowledge helped solve the case.
Thank you for input.
