‘You took care of me so graciously, and I never got to see one of your faces! I got to go home, but you are still going in every day and putting yourselves in the middle of all the chaos.
‘Much love and gratitude to you all, and to all the people still going into work in order to look after the rest of us. #heroes.’
Lucy added that she tested negative for coronavirus and is currently battling a different virus, which will take some time to go.

Personal: On Wednesday, Lucy revealed that her sister’s family had gone into quarantine amid the coronavirus crisis, as she shared a video of her mother dropping off wine and chocolate
She continued: ‘Ps – I did not test positively for Corona thankfully, although I have another virus (of course I have to be different!) which is going to take some time to go. Take care of yourselves, and check in (by phone!) with someone on their own.
‘Perhaps an elderly person who might need an extra friend. #spreadthekindness #allone #allinthistogether #checkinwithothers #covid_19 #coronavirus.’
The actress made a name for herself as Dawn Tinsley in Ricky Gervais’ The Office, and she has since gone on to appear in The Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina as one of the lead’s aunts Hilda Spellman.

Iconic role: Lucy starred with Gervais, Mackenzie Crook and Martin Freeman in The Office over from 2001 to 2003, the show has also since spawned a hugely popular American remake
In 2017, Lucy admitted she no longer diets, as she said: ‘I came to the realisation, rather late in the day, that whatever your body’s meant to be, it will figure itself out. I’m 44 now, and it’s been a journey. In my 30s, I would have hated to look like this.
‘I probably wouldn’t have gone out much. I’d diet for a week and then eat all the food I hadn’t consumed in the previous seven days in a single day.’
The actress, who even enrolled in Overeaters Anonymous, went on: ‘Now, I think I’m just normal. But my head didn’t think that then. This period of binge and purge was at its worst when my marriage came to an end.
‘Even today, I’ll wonder sometimes whether I might try and shift a few pounds, and then I’ll think: “Ooh no, I’d love some cheese.” I came to realise that all eating disorders aren’t essentially about what you look like.
‘They’re about something much more fundamental. Like any addiction, I suppose. It’s not that you have a drink problem, for example; it’s that you have a problem, which is why you drink. For me, a cycle of throwing up and starving was my solution.’
