Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 66347, member: 636"] Prunella Scales, who portrayed Sybil Fawlty on the beloved British sitcom Fawlty Towers, died at age 93 at her London home. Her sons, Samuel and Joseph, confirmed her peaceful passing. Scales had battled vascular dementia since 2013, but remained living at home throughout her illness. She was watching the classic comedy the day before her death. The accomplished performer earned recognition for her nearly 70-year acting career, including a Bafta nomination for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in a 1991 television production. John Cleese, her Fawlty Towers co-star, remembered her as a truly wonderful comic actress whose performances were absolutely perfect. Her husband, fellow actor Timothy West, passed away last November. Scales is survived by two sons, one stepdaughter, seven grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. [/QUOTE]
