Melanie (Episode 3093)

Melanie was a Bettabuys shop worker who was chosen as the branch's Miss Bettabuys at the behest of Reg Holdsworth. In 1990, assistant manager Curly Watts instructed the young woman on her upcoming role ushering customers onto the Bettabuys bus. The reality of being Miss Bettabuys not matching up to her expectations of glitz and glamour, Melanie complaned as Curly gave her leaflets to hand out and reminded her to smile as she was there representing the Bettabuys image.

Melanie did not last long in the role of Miss Bettabuys and by January 1991 Raquel Wolstenhulme had taken on the position - and everything it entailed.
