— BAFTA (@BAFTA) April 28, 2021
Friday Night Dinner‘s forthcoming 10th anniversary celebration is set to be dedicated to the late star.
A 90-minute documentary reflecting on 10 years of the show is set to air this spring, featuring reruns of several episodes as well as interviews with cast and crew members.
