Rachel Victoria Roberts

Rachel Victoria Roberts is a British actress, best known for her role as Justine Dean in the Children's BBC school drama, Grange Hill. She appeared in the programme from 1988 to 1994.

Justine Dean was one of Grange Hill's most popular characters in the early 1990s, and, of the 1988 intake of new first year pupils, was the only one to make it to the Upper Sixth form. At the same time, Justine became only the third pupil in the show's history to complete the full seven years of secondary schooling.

Rachel also appeared alongside David Jason in the first ever episode of the popular detective series, A Touch of Frost, and has made five appearances in the long-running police procedural, The Bill. She starred in the infamous Ford Fiesta commercial, in which she portrayed a secretary who drives to Paris to deliver a set of slides to her employer, and played numerous parts in "Agony"; a Grange Hill-themed agony slot which aired on the now defunct L!VE TV.

Prior to 1992, Rachel was credited simply as Rachel Roberts, but, due to Equity regulations, she is since required to use Rachel Victoria Roberts as her working name.

Rachel is now living with her children in South London.
