Marlene Boyce is a ficional character in the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses and its spin-off series The Green Green Grass, created by John Sullivan.
Background
Marlene is the wife of Boycie, a used car salesman and was initially only mentioned and never seen on screen. After appearing on screen in 1985 she was brought a sub-plot to the shows arc about her desire to have a baby. After a while she did eventually have a child, Tyler. Questions over the latter's paternity, owing to Marlene's reputation and Boycie's low sperm count, were a recurring gag.
