The 52-year-old was a comic genius and was loved by so many from her time as Denise in The Royal Family, Mrs. Merton on the chat show of the same name and of course, most recently, narrating Gogglebox. A number of celebrities took to Twitter to pay tribute but it's her co-star on The Royle Family, whose tribute really stands out.Terribly sad news this evening. https://t.co/Gt00GwUQdF

Sorry for silence - I just... don't know what to say. What a sad, sad day. We've lost another one of our best.

A character. A legend. A boss. A sister, real and (for me) fake. A boss. A writer. An actor. A genius. A friend. Big, big heart. Goodbye. X — Ralf Little (@RalfLittle) July 2, 2016
