Edit ProfileCareer
Lucy is best known for her role as Jenny Richards in the 1970s British Broadcasting Corporation drama Survivors, the only character to survive all three series of the show. Her numerous credits in other British television series include The Avengers, Smiley"s People, Mr. Bean, the regular role of Jo in Cold Warrior, the first Helen Wycliffe in Wycliffe, A Dance to the Music of Time, Heartbeat, Rosemary & Thyme and Kingdom.
Fleming spent part of her childhood growing up in New Zealand: "My parents packed me off to some friends in New Zealand when I was 16, hoping I would grow up a little and perhaps change my mind about acting.
I was quite a tomboy. I ended up at the Bay of Islands, which was just the most beautiful place in the world.
I was meant to be looking after the friends’ little boy, but I didn’t have a clue, and I don’t recall doing much of that at all. I loved the country, though.".
