An ambitious actress died in a tragic car crash after the car she was driving crashed into a tree.
Sophie Spencer, 24, from Macclesfield, Cheshire, travelling along the Macclesfield Road, near Alderley Edge at the time of the collision. Police confirmed that Ms Spencer’s silver Peugeot 206 was overtaking a car when she made a turn to avoid a black Fiat Panda heading in the opposite direction.
Cheshire Police are keen to talk to the driver of the car which was being overtaken by Ms Spencer’s vehicle at around 7.35pm on Tuesday. Firefighters used specialist cutting equipment to remove Ms Spencer from her car and rushed her to Macclesfield Hospital, where she later died.
Heartbroken friends paid tribute to the “beautiful” young woman who had began her career by starring in three low-budget dramas.
Director Andrew Walkington, founder of the Co-operative British Youth Film Academy, worked with Ms Spencer on 2011’s The Limelight, As You Like It and Re-Evolution. He said: “Sophie was an exceptionally talented young lady with a wonderful manner. She was such a giving and generous woman and she would always befriend anyone she worked with. Sophie would have been than happy to work in any television drama. She was a lovely lady and she will be missed.”
Hannah Blakely posted on Facebook: “I am so upset. Sophie you were beyond lovely. Deliberately drove the long way home from work to avoid that road. R.I.P” Nikki Breen said: “I had the pleasure of working with Sophie and what a talented, kind, beautiful soul she was. Always smiling and brightening up a room. Keep smiling girlie. You’ll be forever missed.”
The former Fallibroome Academy pupil fell in love with acting at school before studying theatre and performing arts at South Cheshire College.
Police are now appealing for witnesses and are keen to trace the driver of the vehicle that was overtaken. Anyone with information should call PC Paul Burke from Cheshire Police on 101, quoting incident 803 of November 24.
