Too early to be included in my view but she has deteriated rather rapidly.

I can't see her lasting much longer, sadly. :(

Possibly but it would be remiss of us to omit such a towering figure in British acting when we know she is ill.Apparently she has had dementia for 15 years which I didn`t realise until recently.

Notice no statement has been released on behalf of Prunella Scales in relation to Andrew Sachs death not even one issued by Tim on behalf of the pair.

Maybe they are on their narrowboat and not keeping up with news. A friend of mine has one and is often out of contact.

Their son has paid tribute to him but doesnt mention his mother which is perhaps telling.

It's a risk to drop her next year, but I reckon there is plenty of better picks around.

She is a tough one to judge.In canal journeys she seems ok but Tim is clearly prompting and covering for her very poor short term memory.Last year he said she had been slowly deteriating since around 2000 and was diagnosed around that time.That is a long time to have dementia and she is of course getting older now and could easily deteriate rapidly next year and would be an embarassing miss.I would say put her on next years list but far lower than 22.

I was under the impression Canal Journeys was all taped a while ago?

Just saw her and Tim'Great Canal Journeys through India.Prunella has not deteriorated at all since the last series.She can still talk clearly walk unaided and even had a go at traditional Indian dancing.Good move dropping her this year.
