I listened to Denise on Desert Island Discs a few years ago and she came across as a lovely,down to earth woman.
She said on that programme..
"There have been times when I've thought, just as I get things right, fate steps in and kicks the steps from under me. But then you pick yourself up again. When I started out, there used to be a joke, that one day I'd open a letter without saying, 'Oh I remember when that happened to me'."
R.I.P.

I was lucky enough to meet Denise on the set of' This Morning' back in 2001 and we chatted for more than half an hour mainly about the hard times she experienced in early life and also about her beloved Sunderland Football Club - she told me she used to attend their games regularly both home and away
She seemed a really nice lady and even sent me a Christmas card a few months after meeting her which I think I still have in the attic - she had a hard life which definitely qualified her to be a TV Agony Aunt and she deserves the highest respect
Another really sad loss _________________ Are you ready for a Ruddles? |
