01.07.2009 : Jane Brittain wrote Mollie always made me laugh so much whenever she appeared on television and film. She was so very funny and had a great knack for comedy. I will always love watching videos and repeats on television.
01.07.2009 : Lasting Tribute wrote David Croft, one of the writers of Are You Being Served?, remembered her as a "marvellous character" who would never turn down chances to make people laugh.

"She would never refuse any sort of comedy situation no matter how undignified it was she would always go along with it. She was marvellously funny," he said.
01.07.2009 : Lasting Tribute wrote Actor Frank Thornton, who played Captain Peacock in Are You Being Served?, told the BBC: "We all enjoyed each other's company, which, if you're doing comedy, is rather necessary.

"You can't play comedy with people you dislike. Mollie, of course, was an excellent comedian."
01.07.2009 : Gill Devgon wrote Another great actress now left us, what a shame. Mollie had me in stitches over the years in Are You Being Served. I am very sad to hear of her passing. God Bless & RIP Mollie.
My thoughts are with her family & friends at this sad time.

02.07.2009 : Bob Shrubb wrote My fondest memory of Mollie Sugden was her character Mrs Slocombe in Are You Being Served. Sadly, yet another great entertainer has slipped away. God bless Mollie.
02.07.2009 : NIk Hewitt wrote She gave us a lot of good laughs and will always be a massive part of those moments of classic British entertainment.

It says so much for Molly's legacy, that #MrsSlocombesPussy is top trending topic on Twitter today.

Thanks Molly :-)

Thanks for all the joy and laughter and the sunshine you brought into our lives. xx
06.10.2009 : Paul Dart wrote I treasure a handwritten letter from Mollie in reply to my fan mail. She took time to answer questions and seemed genuinely pleased that I was still so interested in her and her work. She was a star who in my opinion didn't gain the reputation she deserved. That wouldn't have worried her. All she wanted was to make poeple laugh. Greatly missed. I watched my favourite "Are you being served?" episodes in her memory.
