QuoteActress Liz Fraser, best known for her roles in the Carry On films, has died at the age of 88.

Fraser died on Thursday at London's Brompton hospital as a result of complications following an operation, her agent told BBC News.

Not just Carry On films, she turned up in a fair few classic comedies; I'm All Right Jack, The Rebel, Two-Way Stretch

Like all the Carry On stars, will be missed.

Scary thing to read as a Cocteau Twins fan.

Wonderful as Hancock's reluctant date (or "peroxided Jezebel") at the beginning of The Ladies' Man: http://www.pdcomedy.com/ClassicTV/HancocksHalfHour/TheLadiesMan/Part1.htm

Love the way she dodges his kisses.

Astonishingly, the fictional Scottish funeral director is still alive though.

Incredible isn't it? Nearly 60 years ago but the gloomy colloquial dialogue is still completely relatable today.
