Actress Felicity Kendal has been named as one of 14 celebrities competing in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing.
Ms Kendal, who converted to Judaism after marrying theatre director Michael Rudman, is perhaps best known for her three year stint as Barbara in The Good Life.
She has since starred in television drama Rosemary & Thyme and recently appeared on stage in the George Bernard Shaw play Mrs Warren’s Profession.
Earlier this year she revealed that her dream dinner guest was Israel’s former female prime minister, Golda Meir.
