Dennis Duane Werre, 86, of St. George, UT, formerly of Fullerton, ND, passed away on February 10, 2022 at home with his family. He fought a courageous battle with cancer of the bile duct. On July 10, 1935, Edward and Alma (George) Werre welcomed their firstborn son, Dennis, at home in Gackle, ND. He grew up in a farming family, who lived in Idaho, Minnesota, and North Dakota.
The 30-year-old also alleged that overt and covert levels of racism were rife on set. A senior staff member openly laughed whilst using the term slave driver in reference to him working hard . My management at the time didn’t help as they endorsed/encouraged this office banter . I fired the agent, she wrote.
In an additional post shared on Instagram, Clanton made further claims about her time on
Neighbours. Believe the horror stories. I’ve only encapsulated some of the key things I was subjected to, she wrote. I didn’t have enough space to talk about the microaggressions of toxicity prevalent, the sexist and misogynistic commentary, the disrespectful and crude statements made every day, the deliberate ostracisation of those who called it out and abhorrent levels of bullying.

Aboriginal actors Shareena Clanton and Meyne Wyatt have alleged they experienced racism while working on the long-running Australian television soap Neighbours.
Wongatha, Yamatji, Noongar and Gitja woman Clanton, who played a guest role as Sheila Canning on Neighbours this year, first posted the allegations to social media on Tuesday, detailing the use of slurs and racism “disguised as ‘jokes’” on set.
She claimed that “overt and covert levels of racism were rife” behind the scenes, which left her traumatised.
Without naming anyone, Clanton said she heard “n -” being used twice in the green room, while another actor laughed. She also alleged that an actor openly called another actor of colour a “lil’ monkey”.
