Victoria Wood  

19/05/1953 - 20/04/2016

A truly iconic comedian

[support-thefunnyladies-blog]

It's been a while now and we haven't posted anything about Victoria Wood yet, so I apologise for that... This was such horrible news- there was no one like Victoria. She meant a lot to a lot of people and put female comedians on the map for good (certainly in the uk)! I've never heard a bad word about her, and it's so sad that we've lost such a beautiful person.

I have stayed true to that first idea that people can have a day in their lives that is very important and if they can reconnect with that day, reconnect with the people they were then, they can suddenly revive their emotions.

We’ll never see the likes of her again. A truly unique comic genius.

Victoria Wood (19 May 1953 - 20 April 2016)

This is what it means to age gracefully…

God save the queen

[mandopony]

I’m sick of the media telling us women can only be beautiful during a very tiny portion of their lives. Look at this amazing person, and tell me she hasn’t always been and remains to this day drop dead gorgeous.

Ladies, you’re always and forever beautiful. Remember that.

I’m not saying that beauty is the most important thing, I’m only saying your age will never steal it from you. So just keep rockin’ it.

‘I really wanted to play the character Sarah in South Riding. But when I read for it I just wasn’t very good. I just don’t think I got it [the character]. It wasn’t right for me, so I wasn’t very good. When I saw Anna [Anna Maxwell Martin who got the part] in it, I knew I just couldn’t have played it better than her. She was brilliant.’- Olivia Colman
