Soap Hoppers --The Soap Actors And Roles Thread

I am sure that you have this and have posted it already.    However, I missed seeing it.    Gwen Gillis replaced Shirley Knight in a role on One Life to Live.   I don't know the name of the character, but it was around 1985 or 1986

EXECUTIVE SUITE                  Julie Solkin            1976

Gilliss was Detective Betty DeSalvo. Shirley Knight was a female Police officer named Claire.  The two were likely in the same story, but I haven't seen enough to refresh my memories on how they interacted, only that Claire was undercover helping Viki.
