    Mary Anne ButlerBy 1 Min Read

    We are so very sorry to report the passing of a 50-year veteran of television, Una Stubbs, has passed away. Perhaps best known in recent years for her portrayal of Mrs. Hudson alongside Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch on BBC’s “Sherlock,” Stubbs was no stranger to British television.

    With notable credits including “Call The Midwife,” “Worzel Gummidge,” and “The Worst Witch,” Stubbs was well-known and respected in her field.  

    According to BBC, Stubbs’ agent said she had been ill for a few months, and died at her home in Edinburgh surrounded by her family.

    She was 84.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
