Margot Bryant made a sad, and unexpected final appearance in Coronation Street in April 1976. At this stage, she was struggling to remember her lines and in this clip she is seen to pick up a piece of paper from the counter with her lines on it. This is the final time we see Minnie Caldwell, everyone's idea of a sweet-natured loving grandma.
She was admitted to a nursing home shortly afterwards. She died on 1 January 1988 aged 90.
