Just nine days before her death, novelist Jackie Collins flew from Los Angeles to London to appear on Loose Women and discuss her new book.
The 77-year-old, who died on Saturday, joked about researching for her erotic novels while she chatted with panellists including Nadia Sawahla and Janet Street-Porter.
Touching on the raunchy scenes in her novels, Jackie teased that she did her research by trying "every" sexual position she includes in the books.
She laughed: "Absolutely, every one - that's why I'm exhausted today."
Jackie, who endured a six-year battle with breast cancer, talked fondly of enjoying a “proper English cup of tea” and scones while flying back to London, before heading to Marks & Spencer, having missed home comforts while living in Beverly Hills.
The Santangelos writer did not give any indication that she was terminally ill from breast cancer that would claim her life just nine days later.
During her interview on the ITV show on September 10th, Jackie revealed her hopes of getting Oscar-winning star Angelina Jolie to star in a movie adaptation of one of her books.
Speaking on ITV's Loose Women, she explained: "She's done it all - been there, done that.
"I think women should have interesting lives and do everything they want to do before they get married."
She later dined with her 82-year-old sister Joan at The Wolseley in Mayfair.
Keeping her diary rammed until her last days, Jackie then gave another interview to Hello magazine in the US, with a tour around her palatial California pad.
She also gave her final interview to People magazine, in which she revealed her diagnosis, in details that only emerged after her tragic death this weekend.
