recently revealed she has stage three breast cancer and is facing six months of chemotherapy. The soap actress, 56, told OK! magazine, ‘When I got my diagnosis, I felt like I was back in a soap and in a storyline. ’Burrows became a household name after appearing on Emmerdale for 20 years, and a stint in the I’m a Celebrity jungle in 2006.
But when was she on the ITV soap, and who did she play?Here is everything you need to know. Malandra Burrows made her first appearance on Emmerdale in 1985, playing the troublesome Kathy Glover. She became one of the programme’s longest-running characters, remaining in the show until 2001, and returning briefly in 2005.
During her time on Emmerdale, Kathy was kidnapped by a diamond thief, knocked down by a horse thief, targeted by a serial killer who tried to drive her over a cliff, trapped in the wreckage of a bus crash, and imprisoned for protesting against the local haulage company. Sounds like just another ordinary day in the Yorkshire village of Emmerdale. Kathy Glover is best remembered for getting married not once, not twice, but three times.
Her first husband, Jackie Merrick (Ian Sharrock), accidentally shot himself in 1989. Her second marriage to Chris Tate (Peter Amory) ended in 1995 when he admitted to an affair. And in 1996 Kathy’s third husband Dave Glover (Ian Kelsey) died saving a baby he thought to be his own from a house fire as he was about to elope with his mistress Kim Tate (Claire King).
