Blackbriar 8,568 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Those of us of a certain age may remember the grand old lady of the Dales, and her memorable TV appearances. She was a true character - a tough and determined lady, who faced adversity that would have most of us crying for our mum's ! Sadly, the old girl has died, aged 91, and the world is a little worse off, for her passing. https://www.itv.com/news/calendar/2018-01-31/hannah-hauxwell-dies-aged-91/ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

steve66 3,112 Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Hannah was only 46 when the programme was made and only knew life on the farm living in a different era as time had stood still Heard her do a radio interview later saying she quite liked village life and having company plus mod cons Certainly a one off RIP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
