  • Wendy Richard was best known for her roles in Eastenders and Are You Being Served? She was born Wendy Emerton on the 20th of July 1943 and died on the 26th of February 2009 from a constant battle with breast cancer. In the BBC comedy show Are You Being Served? She played ''Shirley Brahms'' from 1972 to 1985. And in Eastenders she played ''Pauline Fowler'' from 1985 to 2007. This is the update that showed on TV the day after she died. Feel free to rate and post comments, thank you.

    Miss Brahms and Are You Being Served was amazing. Thanks to PBS for exposing us Americans to that work of art.

    Are you being served was one of the first British sitcoms I seen thanks to PBS in the United States. Wendy richards was great in her appearances in dad's army, her role in are you being served and are you being served again, and in Eastenders. She was great in comedy, and drama. she left the earthly plain too soon. Rest in peace Wendy Richards.

    It's hard to believe that Wendy and her castmates from _Are You Being Served?_ have all been dead for the better half of a decade now. I still watch an episode or two of that show now and then before falling asleep.

    I've watched ARE YOU BEING SERVED, AS TIME GOES BY , AND KEEPING UP APPEARANCES . since it came to the USA. In my heart I always say. They're still alive. I've watched two other cast members and I can't watch anymore. I'm about to cry. Right now I'm watching ARE YOU BEING SERVED on RUclips on my TV. where they will still be alive and young. I'm a Indian, African American and I have always wanted Mrs. Slokums accent.

    I had actually watched Eastenders on PBS in Houston for awhile in the late 80's before I even knew about Are You Being Served. Seeing Wendy playing Miss Braums after a couple years of seeing her as Pauline was pretty awesome. I didn't even know of her passing until 3 or 4 years later. Sad that she's gone

    Wendy was a sweet woman; I always dreamt of meeting her. The next time I do so, it'll probably be her ghost. I may not have a chance of meeting her when I die. She's in heaven, but I'm sure to go to hell.
    Also to pint out, she was a one time singer (that glorious song: Come Outside)

      @Micegift Год назад

      I couldn’t agree more! I’ve really got into watching old clips of EastEnders from the days where everybody used to watch it. I have massively enjoyed reliving some fantastic memories and great, great storyline. What they did to Pauline Fowler’s character in the last year was disgraceful and I don’t quite know how they got away with it. In fact, I’m sitting here, trying to remember at what point, they started to turn Pauline into this really nasty, bitter and twisted woman?
      I can’t remember this specifically but did the BBC know that Wendy Richards was going to be leaving so far in advance as to explain why they decided to change her character so much? 🧐

    • @thenightporter
      @thenightporter Год назад +1

      @@Micegift as I recall, Wendy was so upset with what they were doing with Pauline, she quit. I remember she said that Pauline never would have remarried at all, let alone a person like whatever her 2nd husband's name was. Wendy had played Pauline so long and was so loyal to her, which I loved. And she was right -- no matter the stupid mistakes Arthur made, he regretted them and deeply loved Pauline. There was no one else for her besides "my Arthur." And longtime fans knew that too. Pauline would at most have been an interfering MIL, telling Martin that Sonya doesn't do this or that right, but if someone else would have picked on Sonya, Pauline would have been the first one to give them a that for. Interesting that as she got older, she became more and more like Lou. 🙂
      I think that when she quit she was cancer free but then it came back again, of course.
