Saddened to hear the news of Michèle Burke's passing, as her makeup effects on Quest for Fire and Dracula were top-notch, creating what many consider to be one of the character's iconic film looks.
This county was blessed to have someone like her in the industry.

Growing up, I watched a lot of Keeping Up Appearances because of my grandad, as he’d be on the couch with his pipe laughing away at Hyacinths’ antics.
Patricia Routledge’s physical comedy is simply unmatched, as she was just perfect casting for this part.
