Hiya,

Am I right in thinking we've never seend the legend that is Madge Wilkins?

Gotta love the way this woman does so much, but I can't remember ever seeing her on screen.

Bet she's a right nutter anywho!

Nope, I don't think we've ever seen the legendary Madge Wilkins on screen! I don't remember ever seeing her anyway...

I find it really funny when Sally says how she's got to pick Pippa up from Madge Wilkins or when Colleen mentions some gossip Madge Wilkins has told her...and yet we never see her!

Its like in Neighbours when Len Mangel was never seen for years but he was always referred to!

Madge wilkins was in it once. She was serving on the till in the shop, when Ric went to buy condoms. And he couldnt do it because she was serving. I think i have the episode on DVD.

I remember that episode, it was hilarious Wasn't Madge off sick though and Colleen came in to cover for her, which is why Ric couldn't go through with buying the condoms? Not 100% certain though, but I do remember Colleen coming in to serve Ric- the look on his face was priceless!

Actually, we never saw Madge in that episode, Ric just informed his friend that she was there.

The "mysterious Madge Wilkins" thing is a running inside-joke on Home and Away. She is always mentioned, but never actuallly appears on screen. Sally is constanltly "dropping Pippa off at Madge Wilkins' " or Colleen has just "been chatting to Madge Wilkins", but we the audience have never seen her. It is all very deliberate on the writer's part. Just another one of those soap inside-jokes!

Isn't there another H&A unseen character - Stella? By all accounts, Ryan & V.J. practically live with this woman but I've never seen her. Who is she?

Stella is Vinnie's mother.. I think we've seen her only once possibly for Vinnie & Leah's wedding.

Madge Wilkins is H&A's version of Vera Washington from Emmerdale!
