Wrong on so many counts; The "I'll give if five" girl was Janice Nicholls, the show she was on was Thank Your Lucky Stars, and her accent was not Norethern but Brummie.

 

Wendy Richard's early scarpe with fame was appearing on Mike Sarne's number one hit Come Outside.

Yes it is sad news. My first memory of Wendy was on Juke Box Jury with "I'll give it five" in her northern accent.

Wendy Richard 'is dying of cancer'
Press Assoc.

Former EastEnders star Wendy Richard is dying of cancer and will marry
her long-term partner before she dies, according to the Sunday Express.

The 65-year-old actress told the newspaper she has written her will and
planned her funeral after being diagnosed in January with an aggressive
form of the disease that has attacked her kidney and spread to her bones.

The star, who played Pauline Fowler in the BBC One soap opera, has twice
been diagnosed with breast cancer.

She said: "I went for my usual annual check-up and they found that some
cancer cells had returned in my left armpit."

The actress, who rose to fame playing Miss Brahms in Are You Being
Served?, explained that despite being treated for the cancer it has
spread through her body.

She added: "The drugs I was given to help had an adverse effect. If
anything, they did more damage than good so my health has really
deteriorated. Now I have a cancerous growth on my right kidney and the
cancer has spread to my bones.

"Twice I've had breast cancer but this is different. It's more
aggressive this time, unfortunately, and has spread to the top of my
spine and left ribs."

She added: "My oncologist said I've got several useful years ahead of me
but since then it's got worse."

Ms Richard will marry her partner, John Burns, before starting
chemotherapy treatment on October 13.

She was awarded the MBE for services to television in 2000.
