THIS IS YOUR LIFE - Pam Ferris, actress, was surprised by Michael Aspel while recording a scene for the ITV comedy drama The Darling Buds of May at Yorkshire Television in Leeds.


Pam, who was born in Germany, moved to New Zealand at the age of 11, where she began acting with the local amateur dramatics group before turning professional when she joined the Mercury Theatre Company in Auckland. She later won an Arts Council award and bursary which allowed her to move to the UK, where she joined the Ipswich Arts Theatre in 1975.


She worked extensively in theatre, notably with Shared Experience, and also made several appearances on television in such series as Connie and Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit. An acclaimed performance on stage in Arnold Wesker's play Roots led to her being cast as motherly Ma Larkin in The Darling Buds of May in 1991 - a role which made her a household name.
