Victoria Constance Mary Longley (24 September 1960 – 29 August 2010) was an Australian actress. She worked extensively in television.

Longley was the daughter of doctor and rowing coach Eric Longley. Her mother Pamela studied Law as she brought up her four daughters, of whom Victoria was the youngest. When she was young she lived in Longueville NSW.

Longley made her screen debut in a film called The More Things Change as a pregnant au pair. An early foray into television was in the epic miniseries The Dirtwater Dynasty, opposite Hugo Weaving, and Edens Lost, a 4-part miniseries for ABC in 1989. In the ABC series, Mercury, not-so-loosely based on the Sunday Age, she played a senior journalist, alongside Geoffrey Rush cast as editor, believed to be modelled on Bruce Guthrie.

Other television credits included: Murder Call, Wildside, Water Rats, Farscape, The Alien Years, Turtle Beach, Young Lions, and All Saints.^[1]

Longley died from breast cancer, aged 49, in St Leonards, New South Wales.
