She is known for portraying Bet Lynch in the long-running ITV soap opera Coronation Street.
Goodyear was born on 29 March 1942 in Heywood, Lancashire, to Alice (née Duckworth) and George Kemp, who divorced when Goodyear was six years old.
Her mother remarried to William Goodyear in 1949, whom she knew as her father and whose surname she adopted.
Goodyear was brought up by her maternal grandmother, Elizabeth Duckworth, who died by drowning when Goodyear was thirteen years old.
She attended St Anne's Academy in Middleton.
Goodyear began modelling in the 1960's, predominantly as hand and foot model, which led to her acting debut in 1965, portraying the uncredited role of Charity in the first series of the ITV sitcom Pardon the Expression.
The following year, she appeared in the second series on a further three occasions as separate minor characters.
Between 1965 and 1966, she appeared as Duckie in two episodes of the crime drama The Man in Room 17 and also featured in one of ITV's Play of the Week in 1966.
