Kath was born in 1954, and was married to Gary Poole (Kim's father) for a short time in the late seventies. It is revealed in 2x08 that Garry left just before Kim was born. Kath got the house when Gary left, which she sold, leaving her reasonably well off. She lives  in Fountain Lakes with Kel (after Season 1) and frequently with Kim (who keeps breaking up with Brett). In Season 4, Kim, Brett and Epponee all move in with them. Kath doesn't have a permanent job, but has done a large number of TAFE courses. In the 2005 telemovie, Kath and Kel got offered a franchise called The Da Vinci Code Tours, but that is never mentioned in the next season. While sorting through old family pictures, Kath realizes that she is of Aboriginal Descent after taking a DNA test which proved it in the episode "Roots". She is  also of Manx and Chinese descent. Kath also experiences problems with her age; feeling too old at times as she is four months older than her husband, Kel. Kath is a supporter of the Richmond Tigers. Kim Craig nee Day. Kim Craig is a lazy, self-absorbed, ever-complaining, screaming, spoilt and accident-prone woman. She is the daughter of Kath and the wife of Brett. She is often seen lying down, shopping, going out or snacking. In Season 1 she works in a call centre, but she loses that job. In Season 2 she is pregnant, and from Season  3 onwards she is mostly a stay-at-home mum. Kim often wears short T-shirts which allow her belly to show. Her fashion choices change frequently, at some points she wears comfortable clothing (e.g. baggy pants and a sweatshirt) and the rest of the time obsesses over herself in the mirror and talks about the latest fashion trends, which don't usually flatter her. Kim has long brown hair, a fringe and always wears make-up. Kim smokes and can be seen in the pantry of their Fountain Lakes Home, scouring it for food (usually which Sharon ends up  taking and Kim reacts). Kath calls Kim a "Stupid Girl". Kim is also seen reading Australian magazines such as New Idea and Famous. Sharon Karen Strzelecki. Sharon Strzelecki is Kim's "second best friend". Her main interest is sports, and sports uniforms (summer and winter) make up the entirety of her wardrobe. She is particularly active in netball, where she is team captain of the Sapphires (and also the Unicorns), and indoor cricket. However, she is known to have golfed and to have participated in shot put at the national level. She often makes reference to it in the series , and says her mother (if she met her) would be "pleased" with her that she has found success in the Sporting Arena. Sharon also watches football, cricket and Rugby. She enjoys eating in addition, usually will barge into the Day residence and open up a box of snacks; which Kim walks in and scolds Sharon for stealing her snacks, they fight and swear and each other. Sharon also takes an interest in Kim's (and occasionally Kath's) life, and often unquestioningly aids Kim in her bizarre and frivolous endeavours. Sharon has played Indoor Cricket in 4 different states. She  is a huge fan of Shane Warne. She frequently has injuries or visible conditions such as hives. Sharon has a terrible love life, and is described by viewers and characters in the show as "unlucky in love", mainly by Kath who feels great compassion for Sharon. It is revealed in the Season 2 finale that Sharon dated Brett before Kim did. Sharon has come close to having relationships numerous times, each unsuccessful. In Da Kath & Kim Code she Sharon finds love; however at the end of the tele-movie she reveals that her unseen fiancée "Marriat" was in fact just  spam on a computer website when he was tragically killed in a plane crash at the end of the telemovie. In season 4 she has a fling with Brett. It was revealed that Sharon uses chocolate (Cadbury Favourites) to fill the need for love (as seen in the episode "Lust"). In the finale to season 4 she finally marries, to a Shane Warne impersonator named Wayne. However, in the movie she is single again, and at the end of the movie it is strongly suggested that she discovers she is gay. Kel Knight. Kel Knight is Kath's husband after  Season 1. He is a butcher (calling himself a "purveyor of fine meats") and is what Kath considers a "great Hunk O' Spunk". He is very much in love with Kath. He gets on well with Brett, but Kim doesn't particularly like him and he often says the wrong things to her. Kel is four months younger than Kath. He was very nervous on the day of their marriage. Kel had previously had four past fiancées leave him, and it was later revealed that they all left him for his friend Sandy Freckle. Together with Kath, Kel loves to  exercise and do aerobics and power walking. He is a "metrosexual" and likes man bags. Kel served in the navy throughout his youth. Kelly's four former fiancés whom left him at the altar during his lifespan were Yoko, Debbie, Jan and Shelia, and they fell in love with Sandy Freckle. Brett Craig. Brett Craig is Kim's antagonist husband. Brett works at Computa City and is married to Kim Craig (Gina Riley) from the start of the series till the end. He lives with her and later, their daughter, Epponee Rae in their unit; however most of the time  Kim is living with Kath Day-Knight (Jane Turner) & Kel Knight (Glenn Robbins), as they are always having marital problems. Brett's marriage to Kim contains no actual bond between the two; thus causing Brett to cheat on her on multiple occasions (even with Kelly or Sharon). At Kel & Kath's wedding, Brett is Kel's best man. Brett has a good relationship with Kim's mother Kath, and her husband Kel. To save their marriage, by the second season, Brett and Kim announce they are trying for a baby. Kim gives birth to Epponee Rae Charlene Kathleen Darlene Craig  in the Season 2 finale. Brett has a good friendship with Kim's second best friend, Sharon Strezlecki. Initially Brett was first dating Sharon before he and Kim met. Sharon has been trying to get Brett back ever since. In the fourth series, Brett sleeps with Sharon. Kim walks in and sees them. Even though Kim is married to Brett, Brett still loves Sharon. He reveals this at the very end of the fourth series. In one episode, Kath Day-Knight, Brett's mother-in-law, has a dream into the future. She dreams that Kim and Brett have divorced , and that he is married to Sharon. Sharon and Brett have triplets. Brett sometimes refers to Sharon as 'Shazz'. Brett loves cricket and Australian rules football and would rather sit at home watching it than helping Kim pick out an outfit for his daughters first day on the TV show Neighbours. In Da Kath & Kim Code, Brett is attracted to his boss, Kelly. He cheats on Kim; but she takes him back (as always is the case). However, despite the reunion, Brett continued the affair. Brett strives for greatness while working for Computa City (Harvey Norman) during the course of  the series, however by the end he is ultimately fired and currently works at Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. In season 4 he was having an affair with Sharon. It was revealed that Sharon uses chocolate (Cadbury Favourites) to fill the need for love (as seen in the episode "Lust").
