Avril (Episode 3237)

Avril was a member of a health club who treated herself to the amenities of the Postgate Hotel in June 1991. The niceties at the five-star venue included the sauna, sun bed, massage, an organic lunch, the swimming pool and the hot tub, the latter of which she shared with Audrey Roberts.

Avril made several attempts to engage Audrey in conversation, initially by singing the hotel's praises and then by asking how she came to be staying there. Living it up at Alf's expense having just walked out on her husband, Audrey wasn't in the mood for chit-chat and gave short, mostly one-word responses to Avril's questions, looking away each time as she did so to show her disinterest. Eventually, Avril took the hint and minded her own business.
