The name sounded very familiar but I had to look her up. She also played the next door neighbour, Mary, in the Royle Family. Wife of Joe and mother of Cheryl. I thought she was super in that. Actually, there is another fictional Concepta - a Sister Concepta in an episode of Father Ted. She also appeared in an episode of Ted when her character and Mrs Doyle fought over who was to pay the bill at the teashop).
Sad loss. RIP.

Dervla Kirwen was pretty fanciable in Goodnight Sweetheart as well.😋

Only know her from The Royle Family but she was great in it, and memorable to say the least. Always loved it when she’d say something not at all humorous... then break into hysterics.
Shocked to find out she was 91 meaning she would’ve been late 60s early 70s when the main series of TRF was filmed. I’m pretty sure her character wasn’t quite that old, so you have to hand it to the casting team for overlooking her age and giving her the part anyway.
