“To you (Victor) she was just a gibbering old bat who used to pop round twice a week to polish off our chocolate biscuits. A plaque of locusts in earrings you called her.”
One Foot in The Algarve, Christmas Special, 1993. Guest starring Peter Cook. Margaret and Victor are in the hospital believing Mrs Warboys might be dead. Victor half-heartley shows remorse but Margaret sees through it and then the line.
i only just found out that she'd died. i loved her character. one of the best and most underrated characters on tv. she was amazing. i always hoped to meet her and tell her so. rip doreen.
RIP Doreen. Absolutely brilliant as Mrs. Warboys. ❤
Great selection of clips. So funny. 😆
@@jan-nz6hi I think it was only Margaret that called her “Jean”. To everyone else it was just “Mrs Warboys…Mrs Warboys”.
The great Doreen Mantle.... 👍

Loved this, thanks for going to the effort of posting. Mrs Warboys will always be one of the best parts of One foot in the Grave 😆😆
The best bit of that hostage episode is where the kids in the field are drawing a picture of the dog 'finding' Mrs Warboys 😂

I've never been to Athens because of Mrs Warboys. 😏
Wise choice, squalor, filth, and a particularly dangerous airport runway.
I've been to Corfu
I saw enough filth there
A masterpiece of comedy 😂😂😂
For me the best Mrs w bit victor moaning about her the giant TV
Mrs w it's a whopper Mr Mel drew it still makes me laugh too this day
And it was one of those rear projection televisions that was the high end of TVs in the 90s.
Classic throw from victor 😂
I never knew Doreen Mantle had died. Never saw anything to that effect on the news.

“Where do you think I shop, King Kong at C&A?”
Please. Let it not be Mrs. Warboys to tell me about her holiday in Cork.
(Answers phone)
Good morning Mrs. Warboys. How was Cork?
Uh huh, uh huh, oh really (puts phone under cushion)
Shame on Ray Winston for trying to kill Mrs Warboys
It is quite funny.
