    Margaret Pelligrini, one of the last remaining Munchkins from the original Wizard Of Oz movie, has died at the age of 89.

    The actress, who played the Flower Pot Munchkin in the 1939 film, passed away in Arizona on Wednesday.

    The four foot tall star was just 14 when she was cast in the Judy Garland film and was one of the youngest actors on the set - she was over a year younger than Garland.
