Janet Webb

Webb was born Janet Patricia Webster on 1 July 1930, in Liverpool, Lancashire, the daughter of Gilbert Webster, Professor of music at the Royal Manchester College of Music and renowned as one of the few players of the cimbalom.

[citation needed] Webb was best known for her appearances on BBC television's The Morecambe & Wise Show where she was "the lady who comes on at the end".

[citation needed] Her part was later expanded to a talking role, her line was nearly always: I'd like to thank all of you for watching me and my little show here tonight.

The show featured clips of celebrities such as Eric Porter, André Previn, Ian Carmichael and Flora Robson stating, "I worked with Morecambe and Wise and look what happened..." showing that Porter had become a bin man, Previn a bus conductor, Carmichael became a paper boy and Robson a BBC tea lady.

At the end of the show Webb appeared and after exiting a Rolls-Royce at her mansion explained "I worked with Morecambe and Wise and it never did me any harm".
