Wow most people cannot help but notice Peggy Mitchell back in the days when I use to watch the British soap opera East enders Barbara Windsor was the mother to the notorious Mitchell brothers, so sad. May her soul rest in peace. Actress Dame Barbara Windsor, best known for her roles in EastEnders and the Carry On films, has died aged 83.
Her husband
Scott Mitchell said she had died peacefully from Alzheimer's at a London care
home on Thursday evening.
He said she
would be remembered for the "love, fun, friendship and brightness she
brought to all our lives".
The Prince of
Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, who both met Dame Barbara, paid tribute to
her acting and charity work.

Prime
Minister Boris Johnson added: "So sad about Barbara Windsor, so much more
than a great pub landlady and Carry On star.
He added that
she was "one of those people that just cheered you up, and cheered
everybody up because she had a kind of irrepressible naughtiness that was
totally innocent.
"She did
a lot of good work for charity and looking after lonely and vulnerable people,
she lit up people's faces."
Sir Elton
John added: "The world has lost the biggest ray of light. And heaven has
the sweetest and funniest angel."
The BBC's
EastEnders programme also paid tribute, saying they were "all deeply
saddened".

We are all deeply saddened that we’ve lost our Dame. Barbara created an icon in Peggy Mitchell, our formidable Landlady. To all of us at EastEnders, she was our dearest friend, truly loved and adored by everyone. Our thoughts go out to Scott and Barbara’s family. pic.twitter.com/tXgyJTci6V
