Default Farewell Ms Brahms

Wasn't a fan in Eastenders but loved Are You Being Served?

That's a real shame. I've known people who have dealt with her regularly in the pas with various charity projects and the like and they've said she was one of the nicest lady you could hope to meet.

"Are you free, Mr Humphries?"
"Oh, I'm VERY free!!"

Sad to see her go.

I'll always remember her as the bubbly Miss Brahms. To have to battle cancer once is hard enough to imagine, but three times..... a brave lady.

Canonballing through Post Office windows and it's the cancer that gets her. Shame .

I remember reading last year that she has terminal cancer and I've not heard anything since until yesterday. What a difference to another 'celebrity' cancer sufferer, much more dignified.

Such a shame, I remember her from her early days in Are You Being Served being chased by Mr. Lucas and although I watched EastEnders for a bit when it started, I can't say I've seen her in anything for a lot of years.

Big age difference for a start, she's also a massive smoker and wasn't in a position to help other people.
If you think Jade cashing in on stuff to get her kids money for their future is wrong then I would strongly disagree with you. Jade has done the right thing by bringing cancer to the front of the minds of young people.

I feel sorry for Jade Goody, I don't feel sorry for Wendy Richards.

Apparently she's going to start a new show called "Are you being preserved"
