Monday we lost Ellie. She is mostly known for her role as C.O. of the Sir Bevil Grenville regiment. She came from Frome and she was also involved locally in the theatre. I didn't know her well in my ECWS days as I was on a different side but I got her involved with the 1685 Society. She played 'Rebel's wife' in a film we did for BBC Education, complete with Frome accent. She also had a cellar of drums and armour we borrowed. An old newspaper cutting showed that when about 10 we were in the same inter schools Road Safety quiz. She will be missed. Raise a glass to her memory.
