Dame Joan Plowright, one of Britain’s most acclaimed stage and screen stars and the widow of Sir Laurence Olivier, has died at the age of 95.

Her career spanned 60 years and included an Oscar nomination for the 1991 film Enchanted April.

She married Olivier in 1961 after starring opposite him as his daughter in The Entertainer, and became a leading member of the National Theatre, which he set up.

In 2014, she retired from the stage – having lost her eyesight and been registered as blind.
