Rowan And Martin’s Laugh-In star Judy Carne has passed away, aged 76.
The English actress found fame on the US sketch show in the 60s as the “Sock It To Me” girl, who was doused with water every time she said the phrase.
Judy died on September 3, according to the Daily Telegraph.
She was married to actor Burt Reynolds from 1963 to 1965 and in 1985 published an autobiography in which she revealed details of their volatile relationship, as well as her battle with drug addiction.
Actress Goldie Hawn was among those to have paid tribute to her online.
Rest now sweet Judy. Loving memories http://t.co/QdXuVVoHDM
