Brenda

Emma Wray was brilliant in Watching, shame she didn't do more TV but apparently she's considering coming back to acting if she's offered the right part. x

Trivia
Malcolm's beloved motorbike is said to be a 1939 red valve Norton 500cc, with a 1936 Garrard sidecar (reg: KHN 712).

Goofs
In the early seasons it's mentioned that Pamela and Brenda have two other siblings: Sandra (with a weakness for bikers) and Gerald. By the fifth run, when they visit their mother and schoolboy brother in Aigburth, Sandra has been quietly forgotten as Mrs Wilson announces she has just three children.
