Gwyneth Strong, renowned for her role as Cassandra Trotter in Only Fools and Horses, is actively developing a new television series alongside her close friend and former co-star, Tessa Peake-Jones. Strong revealed that she is in the process of writing a television proposal for a show that will be inspired by their shared life experiences and enduring friendship.
This new venture comes as Strong, who was a regular on the hit sitcom between 1989 and 2003, continues her acting career with appearances in shows like Casualty. She is married to actor Jesse Birdsall, and they have two adult children and three grandchildren. Strong noted that her children have deliberately avoided the acting profession, preferring what she calls 'normal' jobs.
Beyond her acting commitments, Gwyneth Strong is deeply involved with children's charities, including NSPCC and Childline. She described her training and work in their counseling rooms as life-changing, initially seeking volunteer work where her fame would not be a factor.
