Vicki Michelle MBE (born 14 December 1950, Chigwell),^{[citation needed]} is an English actress best known for her role as Yvette Carte-Blanche in the television comedy series 'Allo 'Allo! - a role which she has reprised in both 2008 and 2009 as a cast of the stage show based on the television series.

After spending much of 2008 on tour with the 'Allo 'Allo! stage show, Michelle took a break to pursue various other projects, including appearing as the Wicked Queen in a pantomime production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which ran at the Hull New Theatre. She then rejoined the cast of 'Allo 'Allo! in March 2009, reprising her role as sexy waitress Yvette. Michelle made several appearances in the British soap opera Emmerdale as Patricia Foster, mother of Jonny Foster - a role which she reprised in early 2009.^[1]

Michelle's film roles have included that of Glenys in the 1976 comedy film The Likely Lads, playing an English hitchhiker in Alfie Darling; and is currently in the middle of filming the role of Amanda Newman in a new short film being made at Elstree Studios entitled Resentment. She also appeared in some controversial adverts for Harp Lager in the early 1980s. The slogan was "Sally O'Brien and the way she might look at you." There was uproar when it was discovered that the actress playing the Irish character Sally O'Brien was English. In 2007, she appeared in a Children In Need special of Hotel Babylon and, the following year, appeared on BBC's cookery programme Celebrity MasterChef.

She was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2010 Birthday Honours for services to charity.^[2]
