Quote:
The British actress will be remembered for her character Blunder Woman, the comic sidekick of hapless superhero Cooperman in the 1980s television programme The Russ Abbot Show.

She was "a woman of immense warmth and generosity", Abbot said.

Emberg also appeared on The Benny Hill Show, Z Cars, and Doctor Who in a television career spanning six decades.
RIP Bella!

There is nothing more frightening to an actor than being typecast, and that it seemed what happened to the above actress with Blunderwoman, as she could get no work after that. But she seemed grateful for the part, and was well known on TV..... RIP

I think this is why actors move on away from a role, even if it is a fantastic role to play. Doctor Who comes to mind where some of the leading role actors decided to pack it in just when they were at their best and move on.

They had a hard time getting rid of Tom Baker though, as he thought he was Doctor Who LOL!, (and did not want to leave as he had held the record as the longest time as Doctor Who).

RIP
