Bea Arthur in 1978's Holiday Special

Thirty-two years after the release of Star Wars, the vast cast has stayed surprisingly healthy. We have lost Sir Alec Guinness and Philip “Uncle Owen” Brown, and today another star twinkles for the last time as Bea Arthur has sadly passed at the age of 86. 

Arthur is surely not best known for her role as Greedo’s dance partner in The Star Wars Holiday Special, but this is how Star Wars fans will remember her, even if the special was mostly forgettable.
