The Oscar-winning Irish actor Brenda Fricker, who starred in the Daniel Day-Lewis drama My Left Foot and stole scenes in the Christmas classic Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, has died at the age of 81.
In a statement, Fricker’s agent said: “We will never see her like again and the world is lesser for the lack of her,” adding: “I was honoured to know, love and work with her and she will always have a place in my heart and in the heart of so many film and TV fans the world over.”
