Tracey Wilkinson

Tracey Wilkinson is an English actress primarily known for her role as Di Barker, later Grayling, later Fenner and finally known as Barker once more, in the series "Bad Girls". She joined the prison drama in Series 2 as a prison officer new to G-Wing, but by the end of her time on the programme (Series 7) Di was herself behind bars in the prison in which she had served as an officer, suspected of killing her third husband, corrupt Wing (latterly promoted to Acting Prison) Governor, Jim Fenner (played by Jack Ellis) - though she was apparently in fact innocent of the crime.

Tracey Wilkinson left "Bad Girls" in between the filming of the 2005 Christmas Special (now established as an additional episode to Series 7) and the beginning of Series 8 and the fate of Di Barker (last seen on remand for Jim's murder) remains unresolved, though she has presumably been transferred from G-Wing.

Tracey Wilkinson is from the north-east of England and her acting CV includes a number of productions set in and filmed in the region, including the films "Billy Elliot" and "Purely Belter" (both 2000) and the BBC drama "Our Friends in the North" (1996).
