The modest £170,000 Blackpool terraced house where 'Naughty Nolan sister' Linda spent her final weeks before dying from cancer


The singer found global success as a member of The Nolans, spearheaded by parents Maureen and Tommy, who pushed their daughters to begin performing from an extremely young age.

But as her health deteriorated, she moved into sister Anne’s house to be closer to her and to be assisted - only leaving to be given specialist care in Blackpool Victoria Hospital in the final few days before her death. Linda who reinvented herself and became known by the nickname 'Naughty Nolan' after she left the group, blamed greedy record bosses and her overbearing father for ripping her off by under-paying her and her sisters when they signed their biggest music deals But Linda’s life was blighted by financial hardship that led to bankruptcy in 1995 – the same year that her husband Brian Hudson was so hard up he stole £20 for the wallet of Frank Carson while the comedian was on stage performing.
