Ambrosine Phillpotts, (13 September 1912 — 12 October 1980), was a British actress best known for playing aristocratic women in films.
She was considered to have been one of the last truly great stage aristocrats. The Times called her "a stylish comedienne best known for playing on stage and screen a succession of increasingly 'grande dames' with an endearing mixture of Edwardian snobbery and eccentric absent-mindedness".
She mostly appeared in comedy films, and made appearances in some very successful film series such as the Doctor... Series, Carry On... Series, and St. Trinian's series.
She died at the age of 68.
