I agree totally, one of the most underused characters I thought. I reckon she would have made a brilliant top dog, I don't think the women would mess with her. I wasn't too keen on her first stint when she kept doing that annoying accent but loved the comedy value the character had, which was exactly what the series needed at the time.

The cult storyline.... oh... it was an interesting storyline but I didn't care much for it either. I think maybe they just tried a little too hard and it just ended up being a bit over the top... although the scenes in the attic of the half way house were pretty impressive.
