Mrs Hargreaves


Played by: Judith Davies
Appeared:
Spring 1989

In the spring of 1989 Alec Gilroy had to pay an £8000 tax bill. To make some money he went on a tour in the Midle East with some of his artistees. When he was away, Bet was out almost every evening with Paul Rigby. Alec came back earlier than expected and caught them when Paul tried to kiss Bet (there was nothing going on).

They started to fight and Alec wanted a divorce - so Bet stopped cooking and cleaning. The quarrel went on for weeks. After a few days Alec, in despair cause he had no clean shirts, phoned an agency for a housekeeper. The agency sent Mrs Hargreaves who only lasted one afternoon, until Bet scared her off. Alec followed Mrs Hargreaves through the pub begging her to stay, he even offered her money if she only would stay, but she wouldn't. The next day Alec phoned the agency and asked for her to come back, but they slammed the phone in his ear.
