Ember Leigh Biografía y Hechos
Betty Gleadle (Scunthorpe, Inglaterra; 11 de diciembre de 1921 - Worthing, Inglaterra; 24 de diciembre de 2016), conocida como Liz Smith,[1] fue una actriz inglesa conocida por sus papeles de Annie Brandon en I Didn't Know You Cared, Bette, la tía Belle en 2point4 Children, Norma Speakman en The Royle Family, y Letita Cropley en The Vicar of Dibley. Biografía Su madre murió cuando Betty Gleadle tenía 2 años. Posteriormente, su padre se casó con otra mujer que le solicitó cortar todo contacto con su vida anterior, por lo que fue criada por su abuela viuda. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial sirvió en el Servicio de la Mujer de la Marina Real británica. En 1945, antes de comenzar su carrera, se casó con Jack Thomas a quien conoció en la India. Tuvieron dos hijos pero se divorciaron en 1959. Describió este período como muy difícil en su vida, primero por la muerte de su madre, después por el rechazo de su padre, su divorcio (por el cual sufrió dificultades financieras) y la desaprobación social por estar divorciada.

Murió el 24 de diciembre de 2016 en su casa de Worthing, Sussex occidental, poco después de cumplir 95 años. Shannen Allen, controller comisionada de comedia de la BBC dijo que Smith había "representado de forma brillante a la abuela que había en la familia de todo el mundo" en su papel de Nana para The Royle Family. Mike Leigh dijo que "era un soplido de aire fresco... no era la típica actriz de mediana edad"[2]. El último episodio de la edición de confinamiento de "The Vicar of Dibley" terminó con un tributo a su figura justo antes de los títulos de crédito, donde se podía leer "con cariñoso recuerdo a Liz, John, Emma y Roger" dando tributo a ella y también a otros tres miembros fallecidos de Dibley (John Bluthal, Emma Chambers y Roger Lloyd-Pack).
