EARLIER THIS WEEK, Angela Lansbury won an Olivier Award for her performance in the West End production of Blithe Spirit.
On accepting the award, the 89-year-old actress said that she felt like “a million bucks” and joked that she couldn’t remember a lot of things these days, but she could remember her lines.
Yesterday, The Daily Mail clearly thought the veteran actress needed to be taken down a peg and made some needlessly harsh comments about her appearance.
Whoops!

Some other internet vigilantes took to Quentin Letts’ Wikipedia to make this edit.
The actress herself has not addressed the comments herself, as we’re sure she’s probably far too busy to deal with such nonsense.
All hail Jessica Fletcher.
