Barbara Windsor, (born August 6, 1937) is a British actress, born Barbara-Ann Deeks in London.

Her first film appearance was in The Belles of St. Trinian's (1954), and then later came to prominence in the British film Sparrows Can't Sing (1963) garnering a Bafta nomination for Best British Film Actress.

However in 1994 she was offered the plum role of Peggy Mitchell in the popular BBC drama series EastEnders, this saw her regain past glories and come to be seen as something of a 'British Institution'. After a debilitating case of the Epstein-Barr virus saw her take a year long absence from the screen in 2003, she is due back in the spring of 2004. It was later announced that she would make a one off appearance in Eastenders late in 2003.

She was also married to Stephen Hollings (1986-1995), and more recently to Scott Mitchell (2000-). During her first marriage, she had an affair with Sid James, and her biography states the details after 1973.
