Today the world lost one of the kindest, warmest and most talented people I have ever known. Marilyn Imrie, who I had the joy of working alongside on many hours of radio plays, passed away this morning surrounded by her family. I still can’t comprehend that I won’t see her again. I have so many wonderful memories her.
A particularly wonderful moment springs to mind, when a play was too short, and Marilyn and I improvised a scene together to get it to length. We cried so much with laughter trying to record it. I am now crying with deep sorrow at her passing. Much love Marilyn you will be so missed.

My dear friend, Bill Paterson, just told me that Marilyn Imrie has died in Edinburgh. She was the most glorious person & a truly outstanding director of radio drama. Everyone adored her, everyone wanted to be in her cast. I am heartbroken, for her family and friends. Unique & gifted & deeply admired. Go well, dear girl. I hold you in my heart.
