These brilliant photos capture the day the late Ruth Madoc came to Liverpool for the opening of a now lost fashion store.
Hi-de-Hi! actress Ruth Madoc died just one day after she assured fans she was "well" following an accident that saw the star rushed into hospital. A statement posted to Ruth's Instagram page on December 9, read: "Following an accident earlier this week, and after medical assessment, regretfully Ruth Madoc is no longer able to appear in this year's pantomime of Aladdin at the Princess Theatre in Torquay.
"Everyone at the theatre wishes Ruth a speedy recovery. Further announcements regarding casting will take place in due course." Ruth added: "Hiya everyone please don’t worry! I’m well and I’ll soon be back to normal, but unfortunately @princesstheatretorquay won’t get to have The Empress Gladys in the Panto this Christmas."
