![]() Wiki : During the 1990s Aherne suffered from depression and alcoholism. In 1998 she attempted suicide and was subsequently treated at The Priory.[10] She also suffered from bladder cancer and from a rare cancer of the retina. In 2014 she embarked on a programme of treatment for lung cancer.[10][11] In June 2014 Aherne appeared in Manchester at the launch of the Macmillan Cancer Improvement Partnership (MCIP), a £3.4m scheme to co-ordinate cancer care in the city. She spoke about how a sense of humour has helped her in her battle against the disease.[12] In 2016, Aherne became the voice behind the UK government's One You health campaign, to persuade people to cut down on cigarettes and alcohol.[13] In April 2016 it was reported that Aherne was battling throat cancer[13]. On 2 July 2016 it was reported that she had died[14]. |

Very sad news, the poor lass suffered a lot of torment throughout a very turbulent life, hopefully she will now be at peace having provided many with joy through her writing and acting, that is the least she deserves, R.I.P Caz.

Behind her sometimes dopey characters was an astute observer of life, succinctly summed up by her Royle Family co-star Ricky Tomlinson. "Caroline acts like a dope and a dumb blonde," he once said, "but she's as sharp as a box of razor blades." |

Bigmo - indeed yes,she was very sharp /observant , all what makes a good comedy writer ... weird how a lot of comedy writers often go through a life of turmoil /depression - maybe seeing life a lot differently

I never join in these threads either, but her work gave me so much happiness, and at times, the occasional tear for example The Queen of Sheba episode of The Royal Family.
