Very 80s related, as it was during the 80s that her star rose so highly...
The passing of comedienne, singer, writer and actress Victoria Wood is one that - in a year already marked with so many celebrity deaths - hit me more than any other. I loved Victoria's shows, whether 'As Seen On TV', 'An Audience With...', 'Acorn Antiques', 'Dinnerladies', or her more serious roles in 'Housewife, 49', or 'Pat and Margaret'.
She really was a down-to-earth, humble, and lovely lady for whom the word 'genius' is not an overstatement.

Haven´t read the novel but The Entity film is amazing! I need to see Audrey Rose someday. I like Dark Night of the Scarecrow and another one i own is Scissors (1991) with Sharon Stone.

Wow kevdug, what a treasure to own! I couldn't believe it when I saw it online. I know Prince had a hip replacement about 10 years ago, and he was due to have the other hip done. He must have been in serious pain. RIP Prince! He was truly one of a kind. He brought everyone together.
