Actress Dame Maggie Smith, known for the Harry Potter films and Downton Abbey, has died at the age of 89, her family has said.
A legend of British stage and screen, she won two Oscars during her career - for The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie in 1970 and California Suite in 1979.
A statement from her sons Toby Stephens and Chris Larkin said: "It is with great sadness we have to announce the death of Dame Maggie Smith.
"She passed away peacefully in hospital early this morning, Friday 27th September. An intensely private person, she was with friends and family at the end. She leaves two sons and five loving grandchildren who are devastated by the loss of their extraordinary mother and grandmother.
"We would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful staff at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital for their care and unstinting kindness during her final days.
"We thank you for all your kind messages and support and ask that you respect our privacy at this time."

Professor McGonagall. Fantastic quidditch scout that landed that 5 star recruit.

Love her line from Downton Abbey: "What is weekend?"

She's looked 89 for 40 years

She's back with Dumbledore(both), Hagrid, and Snape(the late, great Alan Rickman).
She was also Mother Superior in Sister Act and old Wendy in Hook.
RIP to one of the greats.

Ain’t that the truth. She looks the same in “Hook” and “Sister Act” as she did in the final Harry Potter movie 20 years later.

Gonna miss Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore, and Hagrid. Say what you want about the Harry Potter fanbase as a whole, but you can’t deny that those films are legendary
