The British actress will be remembered for her character Blunder Woman, the comic sidekick of hapless superhero Cooperman in the 1980s television programme The Russ Abbot Show.

That's the game I remember the most also; it also gave me a soft spot for WBA beating Man Ure.

Jerry Van Dyke - Dicks brother - most recently seen in the Middle died aged 86.
Peter Wyngarde has died sged 90.
Famous for playing the sauve sleuth Jason King
