Hilda

Hilda (last name unknown) (née Tremble) is a fictional character from the Thames Television sitcom George and Mildred. She was portrayed by Jean Marlow
Ethel Tremble was born in London and had three siblings: Arthur,Ethel (Avril Elgar) and Mildred (Yootha Joyce). Her only brother, Arthur, emigrated to New Zealand, and had a job branding sheep; it is hinted that he was homosexual. He died around 1955. Ethel married Humphrey Pumphrey (Reginald Marsh) who was in charge of a meat company. They lived in a posh split-level bungalow in Purley before moving to a large mansion in Oxshott. Mildred married George Roper in 1953 and moved to 6 Myddleton Terrace in Putney, and then later to 46 Peacock Crescent, Hampton Wick.
In 1976, a family conference is called to decide the issue of who should look after Mrs Tremble. She shows George a letter from her son Arthur in New Zealand, inviting her to live with him on his farm. George plans to invite her to move in with him, in order to gain Mildred's favour and to make the rest of her family look selfish, with the intent of sending her to live with Arthur soon afterwards. Humphrey and Mildred tell George that her living with Arthur would have been better, but of course he died in 1955.
Hilda was never seen or heard of again.
