(My first thought: damn. My second thought: guess she won't be starring in Not So Soft: The Movie then.)
It's a funny thing. I haven't seen many things with her in them, and yet the certainty that there will never be any more, that there is absolutely no chance of being surprised by seeing her name on a quirky character in a new film, seems rather sad. It's all so ... final.
Yes indeed. Judging by all accounts, she was a very cool, and rather eccentric, person too. The kind of person who leaves a particularly unfillable void when they go.
It's a funny thing; I was only vaguely aware that she was still around until I heard that she wasn't any longer, and the news of her passing has been profoundly saddening to me.
Btw, the BBC has a tribute page to Charlotte. It's at

Nice site: Thanks for mentioning Charlotte Colemans sad passing. You're right, she was one of those actresses who for some reason you always remembered. Guess she was just good. Rest in peace lovely Charlotte
