Used to watch every week. Now, if my tights go a bit wrinkly round the ankles, I'll say I'm having a Nora Batty moment.

Sad news - one of my favourite characters.

I usually describe the way I dress around the house as Nora Batty style.

[SlugLobber]

She's a legend in her own right, that one. Responsible for lots of families sitting together, watching LOTSW. She'll live on in all sorts of media, bless her!

[Snadger]

The male equivalent was Lee Marvin in his long johns in 'Paint Your Wagon'!

RIP Nora Batty!

she will be missed by me in our house, kids are too teenager to appreciate LOTSW.

I used to watch it with my late DAD tho.......... happy days.

One of my favourite characters and the Norah Batty style (stockings and character) I have used to great effect on the stage in small parts. Thanks Kathy! I will certainly not forget you.
