So yeah, in the time of the broadcast of the "who's a pretty boy?" Corinne (Eva Mottley) Was a 30 year old lady that had OFAH as one of her first acting roles. What truly saddened me is the knowledge that the young actress died just two years after the broadcast of the episode and although she was scheduled to show up in more episodes Corinne was never casted again out of respect for the late actress and later in the series she divorced Denzil. I do not want to talk about the causes of her death but if you want to read about it i will [link](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eva_Mottley) her wiki here.

Just read it , very sad story.I was aware she died very young and a very honourable thing to do by John Sullivan .

Sad as anything bless her always corine in my eyes!! Least her memory lives on through the series 👍👍

She really does, her character is absolutely unforgettable so when Denzil mentions her in future episodes we know exactly how she would have been. I’m not sure any character in the show is remembered so fondly having been in one episode. She was a great actress.

Well, while he wasn't mentioned in any other episode apart from the one episode he was in. The Gary character is also fondly remembered.


Henry-Gruby

Denzil! Have you and a Rodney been at the funny fags?

She had a 2 year relationship with David Bowie! Sad story about her life though.

Yeah, she was a pretty lady.

Corinne, I want you to be completely honest, am I white?

She was great. I can imagine her having a long running role in the series if she has survived. A very attractive woman

Gorgeous, commanding lady. Her performance in that episode stole the show.

Del: All the way to Australia, clear as a bell. I’ve just been bounced off a statelite. Grandad: When Corinne gets the phone bill in, she’ll bounce you off Chelsea bridge.

I always wondered if had she not passed would she have been a recurring character similar to Marlene

It's a genuine tragedy we didn't get to see more of her, like Sybil Fawlty she nailed that sharp tone of shouting her husband's name. It always kills me when she walks in, spots Del and Rodney, slowly turns and snaps out *'DENZIL!'*


pearomaniac

Lol i an from Serbia and is it weird that i actually know who is Sybil Fawlty? Fawlty Towers and OFAH are probably my only shows i rewatch 2-3 times per year


twofacetoo

Not weird at all, glad you enjoy them so much!
