Shining Stars Of The Golden Age Who Prove Age Is Just A Number
Eileen Derbyshire – Lancashire, 91
Some actresses’ fame is so entwined with one character that they’re the only personality who can play that part. Eileen Derbyshire is a clear example of this phenomenon. She is a remarkable woman who played Emily Bishop in the British soap opera ‘Coronation Street’ for over half a century, ensuring she has a place at the center of Britain’s heart.
Eileen started young with radio and minor television roles before landing the role that changed her life. Yet, unlike most people in the industry, Derbyshire is known to be a private person. As she enjoys her retirement, she keeps herself and her life as confidential as possible.
