JANET BROWN - "THIS IS YOUR LIFE" 

She was an amazing talent for mannerisms, voices an personalities of famous people.

I'm amazed, she was 57 in this programme and she looks barely 40!

2023, and this has just come up on RU-vid, here in my home in Australia. Fifteen years ago, passing through London to Europe, one evening I was in the lounge of a small hotel in Bayswater Road. Present also was a lady who said she was Janet Brown, a name that meant nothing to me. Over supper, she explained that she impersonated Margaret Thatcher. Intrigued (and as she was so pleasant) I asked her to step into character to let me see. The result was astonishing. I was totally floored by her voice, manner and total conviction in the role. And I'd only seen Lady Thatcher on TV here in Australia. Ms Brown's talent, and her generosity to a total stranger, will be one of my lasting memories.

The late GREAT Janet Brown. So glad she was honoured.

I was on the QE2 cruise and Janet Brown was appearing on it - A great lady Bless you Janet xx

I remember being quite shocked at how old Janet was when she died she always seemed so much younger

Wonderful that the inspirational Jessie Matthews survived to meet Janet, Passing away a few short months later and for the amazing Carol Channing to be still with us at an incredible 97!

What a beautiful human being - Janet Brown.

Was sooo nice to watch this.

lovely woman. didn't even realize she had passed away. talent gone under the radar.

The Esther Rantzen impression is brilliant!

Very talented

Wonderful Janet is one of the greats , from my childhood that I had forgotten, I now remember her. I think I even did my own Maggie thatcher impersonation many years ago!

Amazing that her husband Peter Butterworth, who played the buffoon in many a Carry On film was a prisoner of war and held at Stalag Luft and was a key member of the Great Escape team. He was supposed to be the last man out but stayed to keep sending coded messages to British Intelligence. Another prisoner Talbot Rothwell was a scriptwriter for the Carry On films too. Butterworth was turned down to play himself in the 1949 movie The Great Escape.

Great artist, and so was Peter her husband ... well done George

My late grandparents are in the audience.

It's spooky that Janet died at the same age as her most famous impersonation Margaret Thatcher, both aged 87.

some souls here have gone RIP

She’s so lovely.

OMG - Jessie Mathews !!!!!!

Sad that her daughter died so young in 1996 aged 34.

The studio audience is God's waiting room

Of course, actor Tyler Butterworth is married to actress Janet Dibley.

Does anyone know how Miranda Butterworth died ? Scoured the internet and I can't find any information on her tragic passing.
