Who is Gwyneth Strong?

Gwyneth Strong was born on December 2, 1959, in London, England.

Her father Colin was a notable television director who worked on iconic shows in the sixties and seventies including The Old Grey Whistle Test and Late Night Line-Up.

Gwyneth married her long-term partner, the actor Jesse Birdsall, on July 15, 2000.

He is best known for his roles in Footballers Wives and Hollyoaks.

They have two children together — a son named Oscar born in 1988, and a daughter called Lottie, who followed in 1991.

In 2006 Gwyneth told the BBC: “We’ve done a really good job and neither of them are remotely interested in acting or having anything to do with our business at all! We did it!

“They’re going to be sensible and have jobs like normal people!”

Early career

Gwyneth began her acting journey at a young age.

She made her debut in the Royal Court Theatre’s production of Live Like Pigs at just 13 years old.

Her early television appearances include roles in The Adventures of Black Beauty (1974), Crown Court (1977) and The Flockton Flyer (1977-8).

Only Fools and Horses

Gwyneth gained mainstream recognition when she joined the cast of Only Fools and Horses in 1989.

As Cassandra Parry, she portrayed the intelligent and ambitious love interest of Rodney Trotter (played by Nicholas Lyndhurst).

Her character became an integral part of the show, with her relationship with Rodney developing throughout the series until its conclusion in 2003.
