The legendary actress and best-selling author was across the pond just days before going into cardiac arrest on a flight to L.A.
Prior to her death on Tuesday, Carrie Fisher had been in London before going into cardiac arrest on a flight from the U.K. to Los Angeles on Dec. 23.
Fisher was across the pond filming the third season of the half-hour British-American comedy, Catastrophe, which stars Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney as a newly married couple raising a toddler.
Fisher played Delaney’s TV mother, Mia, and first appeared in the show’s second episode in 2015.

Horgan remembered Fisher, who died at 60 on Tuesday, by sharing a recent photo of the two smiling widely on the Catastrophe set.
“Carrie was my friend. It took me three series but I got her in the end. She was the most generous, fun, gifted, smart, kind, funny funny funny person I've ever met,” Horgan wrote on Instagram. “She certainly wasn't ready to go.”
“I'm so glad we became pals,” she continued. “I'm so devastated at her loss. I want to write about her more but I can't process yet."

Earlier this year, ET spoke with Horgan about the chances of moving Catastrophe from its U.K. setting to the U.S., as well as Fisher’s pivotal role on the show.
"We’re very in love with Carrie Fisher, so we always try and think of how we can get her in it more. So, obviously, heading back to Rob's hometown would give us more time with her,” Horgan told ET back in August. “And so it is a little bit of, it's something we can confer for a lot of reasons. But, you know, hopefully at some point it'll happen."

“I did really want to play an awful person," Fisher said. "There are not a lot of choices for women past 27. I don’t wait by the phone.”
Amazon, which streams Catastrophe, also paid tribute to Fisher on Tuesday.
