She played Mrs. (Ida) Jessup in The Sullivans and Mrs. (Nell) Mangel in Neighbours. She also appeared briefly in Prisoner as elderly, genteel poisoner Edna Pearson. But it was her character in Neighbours, Mrs Mangel, which found her fame and notoriety. The character's interfering and general busy-bodying provoked mixed reactions from fans and eventually, the actress decided to retire Mrs Mangel, and in the soap, the writers moved her to St. Albans in England.
