Following her father's death, Sophie reflected on her life with Ronnie as a father.
She told the : "It was Dad and three strong women,’ laughs Sophie. ‘But he’d just get it. He had a kind of feminine side to him, and he was often a softie.
"He was a great dad, very approachable, especially with really serious stuff. He never let us down.
"The only thing Mum and Dad ever rowed about was raising us two. Dad was stricter than Mum. I think he feared that Emma and I would be flash, and he wanted us to be grounded. The cross face he shows to Ronnie B in the Four Candles sketch… that’s when we knew we were in trouble."

Yes, by the world – and as a family we have felt that with so many kind gestures and flowers and thoughts – but today is not about Ronnie Corbett the national treasure, it’s about Ronnie Corbett the husband, the father, the grandfather and the friend.
“He was loved and cherished and it is an enormous honour to be his daughter.
"His integrity, kindness, style and grace were ever present and never left him, even in death.”
