Betty Eagleton

Betty is a shameless gossip and loves to know everybody’s business. You are most likely to find her commentating on events whilst supping a sherry she has persuaded somebody to buy for her.

Betty is funny, loyal, a bit of a flirt and likes to get the most out of her life. Her zest for life and adventure is funded by selling her home to Victoria Sugden at a discounted rate. The only proviso was that both she and Alan Turner stay in the house with Victoria until they die. …..and Betty is quite clearly not intending to do that in the near future.
