I do recommend going to see the house. I met Denis in the late 1990s whilst attending one of his special presentations at his house – it was a really amazing experience!

Sorry Fay, I must contradict your opinion that Isobelle was one of the “East Ends Respectable Poor.” That is not how I remember her at all. She was an Eastender yes and really nicely spoken, but she would have hated to be regarded as poor. I know in later years she may have looked a little less refined, but never poor.
I remember her and her sister Rose to, a very quiet lady. They were always had a smile on their faces.
But it was good to read about someone I had lost touch with so thank you for Putting her into Eastend history.

just read this. I know Fay she is my good friend and I knew Isabell. I went to the same Church and she came to my prayer meetings with Fay. Lovely reading this

It is great to find out something new about someone you knew. I have never been to Dennis Sever’s house but I will make the effort, especially to go and see Miss Barker’s hat, someone I knew, as I’m the daughter of Fay.
