I assumed she died a long time ago, because she looked pretty old looking in Dennis The Menace, which was 32 years ago.

Wow, I did not realise two people used the same exact profile image.

Context in case they change it, the two members above me (ranger_scout and ResidentEvil7) had the same exact screenshot of FW Leo as the profile pic at the time I wrote this.

I remember her from a number of things before she retired, the ex Mrs. Laurence Olivier, whom she as a teacher in Last Action Hero showed a video of. Quite a long life she had, rest well Joan Plowright.

It was, she kept it as her stage name even after marrying Laurence Olivier.
