BiographyElisabeth Anne Gebhardt (12 April 1945 – 10 August 1996) was an English actress, best known for playing the part of form 5C pupil Maureen Bullock in the LWT sitcom Please Sir! (1968–71) and in the subsequent spin-off show, The Fenn Street Gang (1971–73).

Following on from her role in the show and its spin-off, she continued working in television, starring as Doreen Bissel in Dear Mother...Love Albert, and appearing in a number of supporting roles in programmes such as New Scotland Yard, Z-Cars, The Naked Civil Servant, Doctor on the Go, Grange Hill, The Bill, Love Hurts, Keeping Up Appearances and others. Her few film roles included the movie version of Please Sir! (1971), and a brief appearance as a maid in Julius Caesar (1970).

She worked extensively in radio at the BBC, appearing in 54 radio broadcasts during the period 1967 to 1984, mostly drama productions, including for the BBC World Service drama department and for Radio 3. Often these were one-off plays, including for Radio 4's prestigious Saturday Night Theatre series. She worked repeatedly for World Service drama (in productions including the 1977 thriller serial The Toff on the Farm), but those credits are not included here due to a lack of sources: World Service productions in this period were not reported in BBC's Radio Times magazine. She also made repeated appearances for Radio 2 on the popular 1970s radio soap opera Waggoners' Walk in 1974. In comedy, she was a regular in the 1971 sitcom Life Is What Yer Make It for Radio 4, starring Michael Robbins and Pat Coombs, and in their 1973 sequel The Things, altogether appearing with them in 19 episodes. At the BBC her extensive radio work eventually led to her breaking into television, to which she switched entirely after 1984.

In her earlier years, Liz attended Willesden County Grammar School in North-West London.
