Very sad news that this actress in the Queen of Katwe died at only 15. She was very funny in the film.

Provisionally Queen of Katwe is being shown on BBC1 tomorrow afternoon from 2.35pm until 4.35pm.
There is a write up about the film in today's The Times newspaper in the TV Review section.
It's an excellent film and inspirational story about Phiona Mutesi.

Cancer at 15, that's pretty awful.
