Very sad to learn that Susannah York died yesterday, aged 72. Tributes are pouring in.
I will always remember her in Tom Jones, playing opposite Albert Finney.
Both the Tony Richardson film (screenplay by John Osborne) and the Henry Fielding novel have retained their immense appeal. The novel is set in Somerset.
Henry Fielding, born at Sharpham Park, Somerset, also lived at East Stour, Dorset.
Susannah York was perfectly cast as Sophie Western, daughter of Squire Western.
