Timeline
Maternal great granddaughter of Alexander (1816-1897) and Isabella (née Coghill) Flett (1821-1892). Both were born and raised in Wick, Scotland.
Maternal granddaughter of Alexander (1865-1941), born in Wick, Scotland, and Alice (née Wadham) Flett (1876-1938), born in Rochester, Kent.
Daughter of John Herbert (1894-1955) and Bertha Georgina (née Flett) Whitfield (1895-1982).
June Whitfield had a long and successful career that has included musical theatre, films and numerous radio and television performances. Her mother was into amateur dramatics and June had elocution and dancing lessons from an early age. She attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and worked in theatre. One of her earliest experiences was working with Wilfred Pickles, whose great comic talent and gift for timing made quite an impression on her. She became a household name on the radio comedy "Take It From Here" in 1953, a time when radio was far more popular than television. When television overtook radio in popularity, June made a successful transition. Over the next few years she worked with most of the biggest names in comedy, including Arthur Askey, Tony Hancock, Frankie Howerd, Benny Hill, Harry H. Corbett, Wilfrid Brambell, Ronnie Barker, Richard Briers, Eric Morecambe and Dick Emery.
She also appeared in three installments of the popular Carry On film series, Carry on Nurse (1959), Carry on Abroad (1972) and Carry on Girls (1973).
Gave birth to her only child at age 34, a daughter Susan Jane Aitchison, aka Suzy Aitchison, on 4 June 1960. Child's father was her husband, Tim Aitchison.
She became a television double-act with Terry Scott on Happy Ever After (1974) and Terry and June (1979).
Original voice of Eth in the radio version of The Glums (1978).
By the 1980s, June Whitfield was viewed by some members of the alternative comedy scene as representing the kind of traditional, safe comedy they were reacting against. However, she still had her talent of perfect comic timing and her range of voices, which enabled her to continue working. She moved back to more theatre and radio, including The News Huddlines, a satirical radio show fronted by Roy Hudd.
She was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the 1985 Queen's Birthday Honours List for her services to drama.
In 1992 she appeared in Carry On Columbus (1992), a failed attempt to resurrect the Carry On series.
Played Miss Marple in BBC Radio 4 adaptations between 1993 and 2001.
She was awarded the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) in the 1998 Queen's Birthday Honours List for her services to drama.
Lived for many years in Wimbledon, south west London, before moving to sheltered accommodation in Kingston-upon-Thames, in 2015.
She was awarded the Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 2017 Queen's Birthday Honours List for her services to Drama and Entertainment in London, England.
A memorial service was held for her at St. Paul's Church, Covent Garden on 27th November 2019.
