Born on July 29, 1946, Diane Keen was a regular on TV screens during the 1970's and early 1980s, starring in sitcoms such as The Cuckoo Waltz, Rings on Their Fingers, Foxy Lady, You Must Be The Husband. She also appeared as Laura Dickens in the critically-acclaimed spy drama The Sandbaggers. She also appeared in the spin off film to The Sweeney, and as Empress Elizabeth of Austria in Fall of Eagles.

After spending much of the 1980s off screen, apart from a long-running series of advertisements for Nescafé coffee and an appearance in an episode of Taggart, in the next decade she became a regular in the Inspector Wexford series, playing the wife of Wexford's D.I. A role in Brookside followed, but she is now best known as Julia McGuire in the BBC daytime soap opera Doctors.
