Jennie started her childhood career by enroling into the Sylvia Young Theatre school.

Jennie's first roles before the first series of T-Bag was in minor appearances in 'Weekend Playhouse' and an episode of the TV series 'The Gentle Touch'. Wonders In Letterland was her first major performance, starring alongside Elizabeth Estensen, John Hasler and Jim Norton. Jennie returned to play Debbie in a further two series, T-Bag Strikes Again (1986) and T-Bag Bounces Back (1987).

Jennie appeared, alongside John Hasler and many other children, in the party scene of 'The Sooty Show' 1985 Christmas special entitled 'Sooty's Busy Christmas'. You can view this episode on youtube here.

Appearing in thirty episodes of T-Bag, Jennie is the most prolific girl actress in the entire T-Bag series closely followed by Kellie Bright’s Sally Simpkins.

Jennie’s portrayal as Tallulah Bag’s most enduring enemy makes her one of the most memorable girl protagonists in the show and one of the favourites amongst fans. Debbie always beats T-Bag in the end, outwitting her and eventually defeating her at the end of the series.

The second series of T-Bag won an award from Lookin magazine and is the only series to do so which must be partly for Jennie’s performance.

After three series, Jennie left her role of Debbie due to a combination of not wishing to commit to a further series and the production team wanting to update the show. Therefore the next series was written for a new girl, the television presenter named Holly.

Jennie seems to have done no other acting in TV, film, theatre or radio since which is a shame because on T-Bag she showed she had a talent and flair for acting.

Jennie also appeared on the Fantom Films produced 'T-Bag Reunion documentary DVD' (2007) where she spoke about the series and why she left after T-Bag Bounces Back. On the reunion DVD Jennie mentions that she now enjoys family life after not persuing an acting career.

In 2010 Jennie recorded the commentaries for the T-Bag DVDs of Wonders in Letterland and T-Bag Strikes Again, both of which are still available to buy.
