She was certainly a fighter. Dale Winton said it well. "She was a real fighter and actually a very kind and funny lady in her own right." She was. I've known of Wendy Richard all my life I suppose. She was the "voice" to Mike Sarne's biker. "Will I what? I will not!" Great lyric. She was Miss Brahms and what a part. Portraying a young woman who was very capable of withstanding the advances of men, but giving subtle hints that perserverance may win the day! And of course Pauline in Eastenders. I've never watched Eastenders but I've seen enough to know what people meant. She knew how to show ordinary women in a production without overdoing it.
She will be missed by the British public, I'm sure.
Who can claim the sword of growth?

I remember her fondly as Pauline in EastEnders in the 1980s, with her lumpy mashed spuds and grey cardigan. I haven't watched the show for years, but Wendy was absolutely terrific back then.
The Lasting Tribute website has updated its memorial pages to include Wendy Richard.

It's a respectful memorial to her and somewhere to pay tribute to her fortitude in fighting her illness.

Wendy may have joined Sarne on his "Come Outside," but it was Billie Davis who was heard on "Will I What?"
David, you are right! What a terrible mistake for me to make. And I've got both records too!
