In addition to her supporting role in Notting Hill — in which she played Hugh Grant’s zany younger sister, Honey — Chambers is also known for her long-time recurring role in The Vicar of Dibley, acting alongside Dawn French as a verger in the sitcom, as well as the series How Do You Want Me?

She’s survived by her husband, the actor Ian Dunn. source
