        That ostentatious public funeral procession is driving along Furtherwick Road on Canvey Island, Essex.
        I imagine Dolly's having a very private and simple funeral.

            You know I've never even seen her husband of many decades mentioned until now!

              That's because you're British.

                Which is exactly how they wanted it.

                  I don't think that's why. I never saw her husband mentioned either, maybe once around the time that he passed away, and then again now as her passing has led to many articles about her.

                  They were very private, so it's not surprising that @andyd and others (me) never saw Dolly's husband mentioned.

                      Curiosity...
                      Googling/image finds only the couple aged 30ish.
                      I found his name, then his 2025 obituaries; no photo on the BBC website! but The Sun ran with a photo of them from 2017.
