Pats Hotpoint 18580

[aquarius1984]

Finally found a scene and a darn bloody good one showing Pat Butchers Hotpoint 18580 in the Walford guest house. Had always remembered it to be a 4 button Liberator but seeing as I was 8 years old last time I saw it IIRC has lead to some confusement over the years.

Probably the very same machine they filmed the noises for in the classic episode between Den and Angie Watts when she falsified her Cancer suffering.

2.25 into this. ]

DROOL.......

if one cares to fish around in this channels EE episodes one can see some great shots of the Lauderette, The Queen Vics original Vac a Hoover Convertible/DialaMatic and the later Lux 560.

Fabulous!

Do you recall the episode a few years back where Asif sold some washing machines to Ian Beale, Terry and Irene and Mel and her Dad and they were all faulty with some comical results?

Indeed. In the run up there was also an old square door Hoover featured very briefly. Terry and Irene had the Ariston that flooded suds everywhere, Mel and her Dad had the Hotpoint that was shaking around the kitchen and Ian Beale had the Indesit that burnt out.

I had that episode on VHS many moons ago.
