What is correct date of death?
Multiple online sources such as the IMDb say 26th July; this article says 24th July. Which is it? EDIT: Indisputable sources such as the BBC say 26 July so I will correct the article accordingly. 68.146.70.124talk to me 19:12, February 6, 2014 (UTC)
I'd imagine that you'd actually have to do some secondary research i.e. from the undertakers or wherever her funeral was, to get a definitive date. Silent Hunter UK ☎ 19:15, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

- Yeah, just about every obituary out there — such as this one, for example — is dated to the 26th and says she died then. Good catch, 68.
