I think it also shows Heather defining the relationships she has with these characters. They are acquaintances of hers and therefore she wouldn't want to be too impersonal by using their christian names. It wouldn't surprise me if Heather also did it to people she feels are superior to her.
In answer to your question, I'm sure that Dot does it or used to with people she felt were her superior. |

true I think it is nice ... and it is true it defines her character and in one way shows how she was mistreated growing up and made to show respect constantly to her mother.... and in a way not have enough confidence to move away from that..... kinda shows her child side....and vunerablity.... as well as the polite factor.
Yes real shame that thing happened with George / Darren. I was hoping that guy from the club was the dad and he would come back into her life. Would be nice to show her in a proper relationship with a guy as well. |

The OP made me think of Todd when he was out with Whitney the other week and saw Darren sleeping on the bench. 'Mr Miller!' Since I don't remember Heather ever having much to do with Darren before the night at the club, it makes me wonder if she addressed him in the same way and that's what sent him weak at the knees. Weak somewhere, anyway...

I'd just about forgotten Eddie. After going for so long without any action and then to pull twice in one night... Heather must have had enormous faith in that yoghurt pot lid. Either that or it was more than a psychological thing and the lid really did have mystic powers of sexual attraction. It's a wonder people aren't jumping each other in the chilled food aisles of supermarkets across the nation.

![]() It's all very Jane Austen to me! Mr this and Miss that even if they'd known them 20 years I used to address all elders and Mr, Mrs and Miss when I was a kid it was a sign of respect rather than subservience. My best friends parents were Auntie and Uncle - and still are! Nowadays my kids friends all call me by my first name, how times have changed ![]() But that part I've highlighted made me laugh! The thought of Darren's head being turned not by the alcohol they'd consumed between them but my Heather calling him Mr Miller Maybe him and Libby now act out Mr Darcy and Miss Bennett from Pride and Prejudice to get them going ![]() Quote:

![]() I just wish she'd stand up for herself a bit more. |

Seems a bit subservient. She awards too much respect to people who don't deserve it and subsequently elevates them to superiority. She needs to see others as her equal in order to grow as a person and gain confidence.

It reminds me of Edna in Emmerdale. Tom was always Mr. King and the others were Mr. Jimmy, Mr. Carl and Mr. Matthew.
