Thankful I didn't skip Carrie Fisher's final dinner: Sharon

Actress-screenwriter Sharon Horgan is grateful she did not cancel dinner plans with Carrie Fisher because it turned out to be their last meal together.
The "Star Wars" icon had been in the British capital to promote her recent memoir, "The Princess Diarist", and film episodes of comedy series "Catastrophe", in which she portrayed the mother-in-law from hell, starring alongside co-creator Sharon.
Carrie had plans to meet with her co-star and author Salman Rushdie, an old friend, for dinner on the final night of her trip on December 22, but Sharon said she nearly pulled out of the gathering because she was too hungover.

"It was the day after our last day's filming of 'Catastrophe' and I was monstrously hungover and tired and incapable," Sharon wrote in a piece for The Guardian.
"I tried to cry off and she reminded me that she had dragged her all the way out to Hackney (in East London) to see me the week before and I should return the favour. So I did. Thank the dark lord, I did."
Carrie flew back to Los Angeles on December 23, but suffered a heart attack mid-flight and died four days later, on December 27, aged 60.
