NFT: Aunt Polly has died

LG in NYC : 4/16/2021 2:30 pm

Peaky Blinders fans know who I am referring to.

kind of surprising - apparently it wasn't well known she was sick with cancer.

also a Harry Potter actress, apparently, as well as a start of many other screen and stage performances.

also, wife of Damien Lewis.

I must admit I only knew her as Aunt Polly and she was incredibly good in that role.

RIP. 52 years young.

Same here.....
