Samuel West has shared an update on his mother Prunella Scales as she battles dementia. The actor, 55, has been interviewing Prunella with the intentions of writing a book, as her memory begins to fade. The 89-year-old actress, best known for her role as Sybil in Fawlty Towers, ended her 67 year acting career in early 2020 following her 2014 Alzheimer's disease diagnosis.

I lost my own mother six weeks ago and she had Alzheimer’s. She was diagnosed in 2017. I was incredibly lucky with her, because right up until the end she seemed happy and contented. She never complained, she wasn’t aggressive, she wasn’t abusive and more importantly, she knew who we were. She had a naughty sense of humour and I loved watching her smile and chuckle. In the last few months, her speech became less and less and she lost weight because she was eating so little, but, she was still there. She was still my wonderful mum. She passed away peacefully in her sleep. I miss her terribly. Prunella was a wonderful actor, and despite a long career playing serious roles, I will always think of her as Sybil Fawlty. A brilliantly written character, but bought to life by Pru. John was so lucky to have her in the show. My thoughts are with both her and her family as she continues to battle this horrible illness.

My late wife and I were introduced to the Wests by a fellow actor and friend of my wife's, when we lived on our narrow boat in Birmingham and worked for a narrow boat hire fleet. What a lovely interesting and devoted couple they are, and as we had similar interests in the canals a friendship was born, which saw us have a holiday on the Kennett and Avon Canal on a hired narrow boat after we had sold our boat and we met up with the West's who kept their narrow boat on the canal. Great news that Sam is collating a book of memories relating to his parents and his other siblings also narrow boat and canal fan I seem to recall.
