. It's crazy she lived to be 93, that's like a million years old for an actress. I remember my mum used to love that show and would always laugh at the same parts. She's definitely going to be missed but her legacy will live on through all the funny moments we've got stored in our memories 
she was literally the queen of british comedy! I used 2 watch fawlty towers all the time wen I was a kid & Sybil Fawlty wus always my fave 
her wit nd charm are still unbeatable 2 this day. I remember laughin' so hard wen she would always say those epic comebacks 
. shes truly left a legacy of laughter & I'm so grateful 2 have grown up wit her character in me life 
93 is ages ago for an actress, seems like just yesterday she was popping up on screen making people laugh, but I guess that's the power of comedy 
. Can't help but think about how different TV would be without Fawlty Towers, it might not have been as influential or iconic if Prunella hadn't brought Sybil to life 
. But anyway, she leaves behind a legacy for sure, and I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who'll keep her memory alive by watching old episodes and laughing at all the funny moments 
. Has anyone seen her more recent work? I know she was in a few other shows and movies, but I've been meaning to check them out
