Help[Opinions] Re: Ethel
in reply to a message by Pickles
As a name, I try not to think about it.
As a character in vintage BBC radio comedy 'The Glums', it's the name of a young woman, trying hard to be polite and respectable at all times, who is engaged to an entirely unintelligent man named Ron with a comical, beer-drinking father and a mother who never appears, but shouts from upstairs now and then. Spectacularly politically incorrect, but very funny. Ron calls her Eth.
