The headlines are changing by the moment, but the current word from Gawker/Jezebel and the NY Post is that Natasha Richardson was in critical condition, was briefly reported as having passed away, and is now said to be "brain dead and not expected to survive" after a skiing accident.

ETA: TMZ gives hope, says only sedated? As tacky and intrusive as the TMZ informants tend to be, that's why they also tend to be right. More later, I guess.

I'm pretty sure she was in "The Copper Beeches," the one about the governess who was made to cut off her hair and wear the electric blue dress.

Yeah, that's the one. IMDB says she played Violet.

Violet Hunter the governess, that's the one.

you are precisely correct!

Well, I'm a huge Sherlock Holmes fan, and someday I will own the Granada boxset. Oh yes. Someday I will. (He was my favorite Holmes!)

[maudelynn.livejournal.com]

mine, too. I am a huge Holmes girl as well, but Poirot is my main man, I must say. I also love Cadfael.

Is that the one where (in the story version) she says that she stayed up half the night thinking of Holmes? I remember my annotations sniggering over that line.
