1. Loved her on AbFab.

She sings, too!

2. She really can deliver a line and get the most out of it...

She's still going strong, too!

3. I don't know if you can listen to this outside the UK, but here's a radio doc about her

with extended excerpts from what she's done (she's been in notable British stuff since just after the war)

4. Amazing longevity

Absolutely Fabulous and Terry and June were both enormous hits in their day, and June Whitfield even appeared with Tony Hancock in the legendary 'The Blood Donor' episode ("A pint?! That's very nearly an armful! I'm not walking around with an empty arm for anyone!&quot - when you throw in several Carry On films, appearances in The Benny Hill Show, Steptoe and Son, Frankie Howerd, The Pallisers, Minder, Marple, Midsomer Murders, Last of the Summer Wine and so on, June has really always been there.
