Athene Seyler brought a sprightly comic touch to British cinema across six decades and excelled as an eccentric aunt or formidable dowager. Make Mine Mink has genteel amateurs turning to fur heists for charity, The Inn of the Sixth Happiness leads orphaned Chinese children on a perilous trek, Night of the Demon curses a sceptical psychologist, and Nicholas Nickleby battles a cruel uncle. The Queen of Spades and Non-Stop New York round out the list.
