EastEnders star Wendy Richard Dies


Wendy Richard, who played Pauline Fowler in EastEnders for more than 20 years, has died today after a battle with cancer. The 65-year-old soap star died in the Harley Street Clinic in London with her husband John Burns by her side. See the BBC tribute. Damn, there was a time when I wouldn’t even think of missing an episode of EastEnders, this is going back quite a few years ago now, back when Grant was with Tiff and Tony and Simon had a gay kiss. Let’s not forget about Wendy’s roll as Miss Brahms on “Are You Being Served”, which is on a non-stop loop on Public Television in the United States. R.I.P. Auntie Pauline.

    Very very sad. I love love LOVE AYBS? It is a staple in my house. We watch the entire series at least twice a year.
