Fiona Spence (c.) is an English-born retired stage and television actress and drama teacher. She is known for her television roles in Australia including Prisoner (1979–81) as prison officer Vera "Vinegar Tits" Bennett and Home and Away as the unlucky-in-love spinster Celia Stewart (1988–90). She has made numerous returns to Home and Away reprising her role of Celia. Her other television roles include Packed to the Rafters as Eleanor McCormick (2013). Alongside her former Prisoner co-stars Val Lehman and Colette Mann (who played inmates Bea Smith and Doreen Anderson respectively), Spence was one of three actresses who filmed cameos for the Prisoner remake series Wentworth in 2019, in what was intended to be the series finale. However, the series was unexpectedly renewed for another 20 episodes and the cameos were cut and never went to air.
