Only Fools and Horses extra you’ve probably never heard of but has been in everything from Holby City to Oscar-winning film
The actress has had a sensational career including roles in Holby City, EastEnders and Casualty
One Only Fools and Horses extra who you’ve probably never heard of holds an incredibly impressive CV after a 50-year career. In the first series of the classic sitcom Del Boy was reunited with his ex-fiancée Pauline Harris.
The pair waste no time in picking up where they left off and after one date Del Boy announces he’s going to marry Pauline, to the shock of Grandad and Rodney who are convinced she’s a gold digger and killer.
After moving into the Trotter flat and becoming a tyrant the Trotters eventually do a runner and head to Clacton, which is the last we seen of Pauline. However, the chances are you’ve spotted the actress who plays her, Jill Baker, in plenty of other shows.
The 70-year-old has starred in a long list of TV series including Casualty, Happy Valley, Holby City, Midsomer Murders, Touch of Frost, and The Bill.
Between 2014 and 2015 she played Margot Summerhayes in EastEnders, the mother of DC Emma Summerhayes who was dating Max Branning.
She’s also had great success on the big screen, starring in movies including Notes on a Scandal, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, and the Oscar-winning Shakespeare in Love.
Her husband, Bob Peck, was also a very successful actor. Bob is well known for playing park warden Robert Muldoon in 1993 blockbuster Jurassic Park.
Jill and Bob married in 1982 and had three children, but sadly Bob died in 1999 just aged 53 following a battle with cancer.
