she’s interesting to analyse. She’s not a comedian but she is quite witty. I imagine if she had been born a generation later, she might well have got into improv as Paul and Josie did, because she’s quick witted and witty. There’s also some self-deprecation there which the audience always respond to and yet she also stands up to the men so well. She was tops at standing up to Kenneth and these days she’s just as tough when she needs to be.

I think she’s tremendous and one feels the affection the others have towards her, similar to their affection for Nicholas.

She’s so busy on stage still otherwise I’m sure she’d be on more often.

I agree

plus it was fantastic to hear Sheila again - I looked at Dean's database I was amazed to see that Sheila was in the second episode of series one - so has been involved with the show only a week (in radio time - not sure how the first ones were recorded) less than Nicholas. I knew she had been involved a long time but her longevity in JAM should also be celebrated: and even more so she is a good player - as Dean's bio says it's hard to say why she is such a success. I think perhaps because she has stood up for herself in a less aggressive manner than Wendy Richard and has a rich voice.
