  Nichols, Dandy
Dandy Nichols is remembered above all for one role only, that of the long-suffering Else, wife of the appalling Alf Garnett, in the long-running series Till Death Do Us Part and the rather milder follow-up In Sickness and In Health, both written by Johnny Speight.
Born in Hammersmith, Dandy Nichols was quite at home with the East End locale of the Garnett series, and she proved inimitable in the character with which she became most closely identified.
Deadpan in the face of Garnett's unforgivable verbal abuse, and resigned to her role as the target of much of her husband's frustration and invective, she could be by turns hilarious and pathetic and she quickly became a firm favourite of the British viewing public.

 TILL DEATH US DO PART | A TELEVISION HEAVEN REVIEW
But in the 1970's Dandy Nichols left (Elsie went to visit her sister in Australia), and so Alf's venomously blinkered anger was directed at his neighbours, Bert and Min.
To fill the gap left by Mike's departure, the antagonizer's role was filled by a gay, fl home-help by the name of Winston.
'In Sickness And In Health' continued even after Dandy Nichols' death in 1986, although with the shift to a more racially tolerant social attitude, ironically partly brought about by the impact of the original series, it had by that time lost a lot of its bite or ability to be controversial.

Shaw, who begins as a sloppy, angry, down-on-his-luck drifter in an unnamed British seaside resort, undergoes a startling transformation in the course of the work, thanks to the ministrations of Magee and another character of insidious intent played by the well-known British stage actor Sydney Tafler.
The action is confined to the interior of the resort, run by a middle-aged woman--another excellent stage actress, Dandy Nichols, does a great turn in this role.
