Candy (presenting age 25+)
A local girl, who is working so she can put herself through college. She enjoys her job; her good natured and quirky personality always shines through to cover her inadequacies. Candy’s innate, innocent ability to make a mess of things causes many comedic visual sequences.

Beatrice Rutherford-Smythe (presenting age 50+)
She has a superior attitude and she is used to dominating those around her. She likes things done HER WAY !

She is marrying Peter, whom she has known for only a short time, despite the fact her mother finds him totally unsuitable.
