I'm sad to hear this. I recently watched Downtown Abbey for the first time and thought her character of the Dowager Countess of Grantham was brilliant.

So many of the greats from HP have left us now

I wonder what Daniel Radcliffe will have to say about this? He has distanced himself from the franchise due to JK's politics, but remember, Professor McGonagall was head of Griffindor (Daniel's house), and JK was the one who gave Daniel a career.
I also remember Maggie from Death on the Nile and Sister Act.

Paying tribute, Radcliffe said: "She was a fierce intellect, had a gloriously sharp tongue, could intimidate and charm in the same instant and was, as everyone will tell you, extremely funny.I wonder what Daniel Radcliffe will have to say about this?

"I will always consider myself amazingly lucky to have been able to work with her, and to spend time around her on set.
"The word legend is overused but if it applies to anyone in our industry then it applies to her. Thank you Maggie."

RIP, I know not one of her more famous roles like HP and Downton, but I loved her in Hook, along side the great Robin Williams.

RIP, defo one of the UK's greatest actresses.
Although she had made a lot of very good films and won many awards, the film i most enjoyed was "My House IN Umbria". A great performance from her, as well as Timothy Spall and Ronnie Barker.
