[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 353830, member: 23"] That's the one. I like her too. She's a nice addition. To jog your memory a bit, she's had kind of an "odd couple" pairing going with Vera with them living on the barge together. And they seem to get on quite well overall. She was also a bit of a hopeless romantic and became infatuated with each new man who came along. There was one really funny little moment where some new man walked in and she kind of sidled up to him and said hello. She was promptly informed by a colleague that he was spoken for and she kind of gave a disappointed little "Oh" and slid away. She was also quite taken in by Vera's dodgy Godson who had a lie for every question. At one point she seemed to briefly get a reputation as a man-eater, which I think was down to a misunderstanding (possibly involving her mother who [I]was[/I] a man-eater). I hadn't really noticed the Sally Army thing, but funnily enough in an episode I've just watched this evening she was reading a copy of [I]The War Cry. [/I] Oh - that's great. What a special start to your [I]Xrds[/I] memory bank! Along similar lines, I've been watching some compilation episodes which appear amongst the regular ones in the DVD set. I'd assumed they would be newly thrown together from recovered material, but looking at the VTR boards they were actually created as compilations back around the time the episodes originally aired. They're from after Meg's wedding, so they definitely weren't for the same reasons you speak of, but I wonder if they were some kind of "omnibus" editions (before they were really a thing), perhaps created for certain other ITV regions to catch up. That's right. Oh, that's great. The track she sang at the wedding reception was called [I]We'll Find Our Day[/I], and I see both this and the one you mentioned were penned by Roger Holman and Simon "Doof Doof" May. [/QUOTE]
