Anita Dobson, an actress, and singer married Queen guitarist Brian May in 2000, but she has been well-known in Britain since the 1980s. She acted in several TV projects before becoming famous for singing “Anyone Can Fall in Love.” She played Angie Watts in the soap EastEnders for three years in the early 1980s and starved in Split Ends, Frozen, Hamlet, and The Merry Wives of Windsor. She then competed in the dance-based reality show Strictly Come Dancing, where she showed off her skills.
Shirley Cheriton – Debbie Wilkins from EastEnders
Shirley Cheriton is best known for playing Debbie Wilkins in EastEnders, but she has also appeared in Grace & Favour and Are You Being Served? Her fans, however, remember her for her happy-go-lucky role in EastEnders. Shirley has also appeared in Angels, M.I.T., Crown Court, Beasts, Will Shakespeare, and The Cuckoo Waltz, among other projects. We find it strange that she appears to have retired from television overnight, as her most recent project was Last Night a DJ Saved My Life in 2009!
