THELMA BARLOW – BORN IN 1929
Once upon a time, Thelma Barlow carved her niche in the acting world with the kind of charm that could light up a dreary English afternoon. Beloved for her role as Mavis Riley (later Wilton) on the legendary “Coronation Street,” she turned a seemingly timid character into a household name across the UK.
Thelma stepped onto the cobbles in 1971 and waved goodbye in 1997. Besides her soap opera stardom, she shined in “Dinnerladies,” showcasing her versatility and comic timing. Her sailing from a background character to a beloved figure is a story of resilience and unexpected heroism in British television.
