Far off in sunlit places, Sad are the Scottish faces, Yearning to feel the Kiss Of sweet Scottish rain"

I was watching an old BBC travelogue programme about Madrid and they did a piece on two ladies (one middle-aged and one in her nineties) called Las Olgas who performed satirical songs (cuples??) about Madrid life. As this programme was made in the early 1990s, the senior lady can't possibly (surely) be alive. The cuples have been around "forever" apparently, but only Las Olgas were left to perform them. It seemed such a nugget of Madrid life that it would be a shame if it died out. Are they still going?
Glory, glory to the hibees . . .
