THE FATBOY SHOW : Doctor Who and Mind Your Language star Pik-Sen Lim dies aged 80.

The actress also went on to appear in the first three seasons of the sitcom Mind Your Language.

However, it's now been announced that the actress died earlier this month.

Paying tribute to Lim, actor Daniel York Loh wrote on Instagram: 'An iconic figure in so many ways, I'd seen her on TV in Mind Your Language amongst other things when I was a kid…

'She was so affectionate, so witty, so brilliantly scabrous and absolutely honest about the rubbish this industry deals actors of our heritage – unlike a fair few others who actually try and cape it.
