Jennifer Moss (actress)

[1] Moss first achieved fame as a twelve-year-old, as one of the child actors on the BBC's light entertainment programme Children's Hour.

She appeared in a West End musical, and made her debut on the big screen when she co-starred with David Hemmings, Veronica Hurst, John Pike and Joan Newell in the beat film Live It Up!

Her debut single, "Hobbies", produced by Joe Meek, failed to make the UK charts, and her music career fizzled out.

[1] Moss returned to guest on television shows in the late 1990s, appearing on Tony Warren's episode of This Is Your Life, L!VE TV and Sky Soaps.

[1] In the 1980s, Moss successfully battled alcoholism, which was the reason underlying her being sacked from Coronation Street for bad behaviour, by then-producer Susi Hush in 1974.

[4] Before reviving her acting career, she took on various jobs as a waitress and a taxi driver, but there were also court appearances for breaking and entering and shoplifting, charges of which she was cleared.

In 1989, Moss wed her fifth husband, computer software expert and Cambridge graduate Stephen Ramsden, and was happily married to him until her death.

[6] According to the Wigan Evening Post, Moss had been in failing health for some time, but in her last year made a spiritual pilgrimage to India, where she finally came to terms with her father's death.
