I`ve just heard of the passing of my favourite Top Gear presenter.

From WIKI - "In July 2020, Schmitz revealed via a Facebook post that she had been suffering from "an extremely persistent cancer" since late 2017. She explained that she had sought treatment and her condition was improving, but she had relapsed and would be undergoing treatment again. At the time of her revelation, Schmitz was still making recurring appearances on Top Gear.

Schmitz died from the disease on 16 March 2021, aged 51."
