Sheila Hancock took her family to Buckingham Palace yesterday where Prince Charles awarded her a “richly deserved” CBE.

A self-confessed fan and Palace aide also congratulated the actress. “It was lovely,” she said. Sheila, 78, was married to John Thaw, star of The Sweeney and Inspector Morse for 29 years until his death in 2002. She found fame in the sitcom The Rag Trade in the 1960s. Recently she has written bestselling memoirs and was a judge on TV’s Over The Rainbow.



Also at the Palace were Joanna, 36, her daughter with Thaw, left, and granddaughters Lola, 12, and Molly-Mae, 13.

I pray that the winter will end soon and with it will be your ailments, all those who thank you for this site we know and we are sad becuase the winter is difficult for you, especially us who live in countries to the South but not so cold as England
I am happy by the CBE I did not know her well, for me everything was John Thaw, but then when he died, many of his fans have interested in her as an artist, as a way to perhaps follow beside to him in material life, because in her soul he is with us
I been impressed by her books, her answers in interviews
From the South of the world, us pleased by it
If you are with Sheila Hancock can you communicate please our greeting
I hope spring comes soon to your life
