Preferred Butterflies to The Liverbirds or Bread but she wrote some fantastic stuff over many years and brought a huge amount of enjoyment to millions. Rip.

I'm wondering where the years have gone. Grew up watching Butterflies (with a very young Nicholas Lyndhurst) and then Bread. Some great laughs in both shows.

Sad to hear, great writer - The Mistress and Solo were not bad either, but agree on Butterflies as her masterpiece. Maybe that's because it wasn't set in Liverpool like her most famous stuff, and us southerners can relate to it more?

Butterflies was a great show. Liver birds is one of the first shows I remember As a kid
