21 Apr 16 - 02:06 PM (#3786478) Subject: RE: Obit: Victoria Wood (1953-2016) dies at 62 - RIP From: GUEST,George Frampton Victoria was at Birmingham University during the years I was there. The university website says she graduated in 1974 with a BA in Drama, although I feel it was possibly slightly later. She turned up at the university folk club, introduced herself as Victoria and did an amazingly witty song on electric piano as one of the floor spots. If 1974, the MC would have been Andy Thompson (Mech Eng) who I last saw dancing with the Rumworth Morris at Sidmouth, or Dave Barker or Graham Clark if the following year. She did one appearance with us, was roundly applauded and never came back! Next I knew, she was on the telly! (Another alumnus from that time was Mick Frost (aka Major Mustard of Travelling Punch & Judy fame), although our paths only crossed at the Old Crown FC and never at the university club.) Victoria was a wonderful performer who will only entertain us with televisual re-runs of past performances. It was a great pity (to me) I never got to know her but for her one fleeting appearance one night in 1974/5. |

A most entertaining performer with a marvellous knack of audience rapport. She has died absurdly young, and will be much missed. ≈M≈ |
