Waitress (Episode 85)

The unnamed Waitress worked at the Cresta Hotel in Port Erin on the Isle of Man in late 1961 when the newly-wed Harry and Concepta Hewitt enjoyed their honeymoon.

On their first morning, she served them coffee on the terrace, asking them if they would be back for afternoon tea but was told that they would going to Douglas for the day. She confirmed that they knew the bus times and then them told them about a round-the-island coach trip that would be taking place the next day but they were not interested, wanting to be alone. As the couple were not in the first spring of youth, she didn't recognise them as honeymooners and made a tactless remark about younger couples wanting to be alone.

She was still serving in the evening when Harry asked her to have a word with the band and get them to play When Irish Eyes Are Smiling for Concepta.
