No more hotpots.
The actress who played barmaid Betty has died at the age of 91. Not sure if she ever came to Canada. But its a sad day all around, not only on the Street, as her acerbic folksy observations often lent a wonderful existential perspective to the melodramatic chaos on the programme. Although she'll probably be best remembered for her signature dish, Betty's Hotpot. She'll be missed.

Re: No more hotpots.
If this person was still working when she was 91, how did she find time to be on tele?
