Fat Friends starred James Corden, Ruth Jones, Alison Steadman, and Gaynor Faye, Mellor’s youngest daughter.

Mellor was a bundle of talents, according to Sir Lenny Henry, who collaborated with her on The Syndicate. She had a sense of humour and a burning desire to bring out the best in people.

“She was so breezily brilliant, so casually pleasant, so ready to get on with business,” screenwriter Frank Cottrell-Boyce remarked.

Mellor married Anthony Francas in 1968, and the couple has two children in the entertainment industry: actress Faye and television producer Yvonne Francas.
