For Black History Month UK, remembering Eva Mottley (1953-1985)

Eva Mottley was born in Barbados and grew up in Nigeria and then the UK. She worked primarily in British television, including the drama series Widows and a memorable appearance in Only Fools and Horses, as Denzil's wife Corinne.  

She reportedly took her own life over career and personal debt problems in 1985. (Bio details conflict between sources, but Wikipedia's details seem to have the best verification)
