Sad news :o(

I met her once when she was in a play at Birmingham Rep. A friend was part of the production team. Afterwards we went to a restaurant. June was full of stories of her life as an actress. A friendly, entertaining lady who enjoyed life.

She did well to get to 95 considering all the fags she puffed her way through.

Never watched Eastenders but knew who she was. A grand age and I know she brought pleasure to many. RIP

RIP June. I see she has 5 chn but don't know if any of them are in showbiz

[Buenchico]

A lovely Suffolk lady, who was born here in Needham Market, with a great personality too. RIP June:

I blame nasty Nick

I no longer watch any soaps but do remember her.

She was a lovely character. RIP June.

I've been searching for ages to find an interview June did with Paul O' Grady, where she mentioned that she was "discovered by Alec Guinness", but it doesn't seem to be available, unfortunately.

This interview is with Piers Morgan, who I cannot stand, but it's far more 'in-depth' and interesting. All her children look like her - the resemblance in 2 of her daughters is incredible!
I was only thinking of her the other day, as she was born in the same year as my Dad, 1927, so it's been quite a shock.
I would've loved to post June's Tibetan Yoga sequence on the show, "100 Years Younger", but there are only stills from the programme with one of those irritating computer-type voice-overs.
It was hilarious and the other competitors were boring in comparison.
I think she will be missed hugely by anyone who knew her.
A massive personality with vitality and more dignity than you'd have credited her with, looking at some of the films she's been in!
Fly free June - the world is a much smaller place without you...

[Ellipsis]

RIP June. Any character called Dot is ok with me ...

Only met her once but she was so nice and friendly to us working on the EE set...she had a great sense of humour....Legend

I'm devastated, after a lot of searching.
Lovely lady.
