When I went to IMDB just now to make sure her surname did not end with an s (my memory is in tatters these days, alas), I was startled to see that Cavada passed away on July 11, 2007. Was there an obit posted here?
One of my all time favorite moments on all of DS is Madam Findlay's arrival at Collinwood, when she strides imperiously around the drawing room and waves her arms and sways and speaks cryptically of the battle waging within these walls--truly classic stuff.I was, thinking, when I watched those episodes for the Watching Project recently, that her costume was carefully chosen so that she would have maximum mobility.
