Some sad news. Molly Forbes has died at the age of 96. Daughter of a boat captain, a WW2 land girl, and one of the few remaining speakers of Doric, Molly led a varied and full life. Her wisdom, love and thoughtfulness will be missed most deeply by immediate family & friends. 1/4
2/4 But for over a decade, Molly touched and inspired countless people worldwide, with her steadfast opposition to Donald Trump's numerous lies and destruction of the unique shifting dunes at Menie, to make way for his luxury golf resort. Molly cared deeply for this landscape.
3/4 With huge dignity, she tried to warn America about the perils of electing Mr Trump President, after her own water supply was cut off during his golf course's construction. Mr Trump threatened Molly and her family with 'compulsory purchase orders', after they refused to sell.
4/4 I feel so privileged to have met Molly and to have spent many days filming with her over 8 years. She was an inspiration and a joy. Molly died on 11th April, at a nursing home in Aberdeenshire. Rest In Peace Molly. We will all miss you very much.
