Things We Saw Today: Rest in Peace to Sherlock’s Mrs. Hudson, Una Stubbs
Una Stubbs was an accomplished actress who graced us all with a wonderfully brilliant career. She has passed away at the age of 84 following a brief illness, according to TVLine. While she starred in Till Death Do Us Part, many of us stateside knew her as the affectionate Mrs. Hudson on the BBC series Sherlock.
She brought joy to our lives as Mrs. Hudon and was an incredible actress throughout her sixty-plus years in show business, and she will be greatly missed.
Twitter was filled with wonderful messages from fans and costars sharing their love for Stubbs.
It was one of the great joys of my life to work so closely with and to adore Una Stubbs. She was a wonderful, wonderful woman and a great and serenely graceful actor. Mischief was in her blood. We were so blessed that she became our imperishable Mrs Hudson. Goodbye, darling. ❤️

Oh goodness that is awfully sad news about lovely, lovely Una Stubbs. I was lucky enough to interview her and we had dinner a couple of times after that. She was so sweet, gentle and lovable. Here I am all huge next to her delicate little charming self. pic.twitter.com/SFfsPzokvH
