Appearing on BBC One's The One Show last night (Wednesday 5th November) to promote her new film Dragonfly, Blethyn said of her final day on the Vera set: "I was crying too. I couldn’t speak!”
"You live with these people you create – 25 years of being that person, he becomes part of me, and I know him better than many other people.”
Blethyn and her co-star Andrea Riseborough are nominated together in the Best Joint Performance Category for their Dragonfly roles, with the film heading to UK cinemas this Friday (7th November).
Previously speaking to The Telegraph about the film and how it encompasses the technology and social divide amongst the generations, Blethyn said: “I remember a time when you’d look up the road for the postman to come, you know, you’d get handwritten letters from your friends and family.
“At least when letters stopped, there was the telephone, you could have a conversation. But now it’s all this, and elderly people don’t really know how all that works.”

The official synopsis for the film reads: "Have we become a nation of strangers? In Dragonfly, neglected pensioner Elsie finds an unexpected ally in her younger neighbour Colleen. Over time, Elsie gains a friend and the troubled Colleen finds a fresh purpose in life as she shops, cleans and cares for her. It brings brighter days for both of them.
"Elsie’s son John resents the way that Colleen has selflessly fulfilled the responsibilities that he has shirked. Simmering tensions bring shocking consequences in a gripping human story straight from the heart of broken Britain."
