RIP to the magnificent Maggie Smith. She stole every scene in any film she inhabited. But on stage she was a force of nature. I saw her in Lettice and Lovage repeatedly- and later on the West End. She was a giant. Watch. x.com/MrStevieWebb/sโ€ฆ

Coronation Street - written by Brian Finch (3rd May 1978). After Albert takes to the stage there's not a dry eye left in the house.
