Thanks asking.

Who’s Bev Hanson?

Nic's mother. She was Nic Hanson before she married Will.

Thanks, Asking!

No Gnatasha?

Yes, the absence of Natasha is ... interesting.

Thanks Asking!

Drat it, the wretched woman is going to come back. Credits again:

24 May Tom puts his heart on the line but will he be able to safeguard his future?

Thanks again, Asking!

Oh! Joe is still on the cast list for w/o 19/5! And good luck to Clarrie (or anyone) who tries to make Will see sense.

Ooh! Elizabeth faces a blast from the past. Could that be Robin Fairbrother? Bring me the voice of Anthony Head!

I’d rather Ifti came back. As much as I enjoy listening to the rest of you swoon over Anthony Head he does nothing for me - I had to google to find out who he was when he joined the cast!

Thanks Asking

Ooh, Patricia Hodge though! Do we know who Camilla is?

Oh, hang on, I’m thinking of Patricia Routledge!

Also, Leo?

Isn’t Camilla Nigel’s sister?

No idea about Leo.

Thanks for this fascinating list!

Yes, Camilla is the name of Nigel's sister.

It would be fun if Nigel's sister turns up and asks awkward questions, wouldn't it.

I wonder whether she was told her nephew had been sent to prison for dealing. Have they ever been in contact with her at all? I remember Freddie and Lily worrying whether Nigel's death meant she would inherit Lower Loxley and they would have to move out, so they do at least know she exists.

Google The 🔮 says that the Leo actor is young and Australian.

Mystic Bore™️ therefore predicts that he is the son of Camilla and is Pretender to the Throne of Lower Loxley (due to obscure clause in LL inheritance stating jailbirds can't inherit).

Ooh, Patricia Hodge though! Do we know who Camilla is?

Oh, hang on, I’m thinking of Patricia Routledge!

Patricia Hodge is pretty exciting.

I just loved Talking Heads, Lass, we did it for A Level and I can still hear the characters.

Just re-read Patricia Hodge’s bio and I see she was Miranda’s mother which has placed her for me.

I see she's 72. Camilla Pargetter must surely be younger than that but on radio it won't matter. Patricia Hodge was in Rumpole of the Bailey for years and in A Very British Scandal last year as Jeremy Thorpe's mother. Terrific actress. She will sound like Julia's daughter.

I dunno: Nigel was born in 1959, so he'd be sixty this June, and wasn't Camilla his much older sister? She had certainly married and left home before Nigel was twenty-four.

I have vague memories of Julia hoping Elizabeth would have a boy first unlike her.
