The season finale of Channel 4’s Catastrophe featured Carrie Fisher in her last TV role as the hilarious and profanity-loving mother of Rob.

Fisher’s portrayal as Rob Delaney’s character’s irritating mother Mia in the Bafta-winning British sitcom saw her threatening to kill him for a drinking relapse while also being generally rather annoying to everyone around her.

The Star Wars actress filmed her scenes as Mia just days before she suffered a cardiac arrest on a flight from London to Los Angeles. She died shortly afterwards at the age of 60 on December 27.

Having previously appeared in the earlier seasons of Catastrophe, Fisher did not appear until the sixth and final episode of the third series.

And the scenes in which she appeared were particularly poignant as Fisher joined the rest of the cast at a funeral in Ireland for the father of her daughter-in-law Sharon (Sharon Horgan).

The episode ends with a catastrophe as Rob was involved in a car accident after drinking alcohol.
