I loved her as Jackie, Patsy Stone's older, evil sister on Ab Fab.

She's marvelous as the unspeakable Jax on ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS. I'm sorry we never got to hear the Dietrich stories.

Here she is meeting the Queen with television sister Joan Collins in 2012. She was quite a stunner. R.I.P.

I honestly don't remember her or her character, which makes me think I had stopped watching Dynasty by the time her character was introduced.

I had no idea she was so old. She looked so youthful on the first season of American Horror Story.

^Yes. And this also explains why she had to so unexpectedly leave House of Cards.
