Throughout her long career on stage and screen, Botcher has been receiving warm reviews. In a performance of the musical
Blood Brothers with the
Sherman Theatre Company in 1986, Botcher's performance as the "warm-hearted mum" was singled out by a reviewer as one of the good points in a production which needed "beefing up". Of
Black Milk (2003), a reviewer wrote, "In a strong cast, Di Botcher is a beacon." Her performance in the 2017/18 revival of
Follies was universally appreciated - "magical"; a "stunner of a set piece"; "wonderful". In 2018, she began appearing in the
BBC medical drama
Casualty as
Jan Jennings. Later that year, she also began portraying the role of Nana Margie in the
BBC Three series
In My Skin. 2022 BBC Radio 4 The Archers as
