96 just like the Queen. A life well lived.

Rest in peace Mrs. Potts.

The first time I didn't notice the word "here" and was thinking that the vast majority of people know her from "Murder, She Wrote." In the general population I'd guess 90% or more couldn't tell you who the voice of Mrs. Potts was for a $1 million prize without looking it up.

Anyway, RIP.

I am a huge "Beauty and the Beast" fan. And grew up with "Bedknobs and Broomsticks." But, still, when I hear the name Angela Lansbury, my first thought is "Murder, She Wrote." I think that's probably true for 99% of the population.

Either way, very sad news. RIP.
