Yes, she of EastEnders
had a comedy No.1 hit with Mike Sarne in June 1962.
One of the first novelty hits in the history of the charts, it was
the No.1 Come Outside, and featured Wendy saying exciting things
like 'Nah, it's cold'and 'Ooh, you go off people'.
Wendy went on to appear as a guest star in the cult TV show The
Likely Lads and one of the main characters in Are
You Being Served?, before hitting the streets of Walford.
Mike's attempts to repeat his success using the same cockney novelty
formula - with Bird You Know I Love Ya and Don't Phone Me I'll Phone
You - were less successful.
He still managed to squeeze four chart appearances from it though,
before fading from the limelight.
