Pat's arch rival over the years was Peggy Mitchell 鈥� they fought for Frank鈥檚 attention, but their animosity softened, finally disappearing during a bout of drunk and disorderly behaviour behind the wheel of an ice cream van in a hospital car park.
In Albert Square, if Pat wasn't related to you, she'd be up in your business. If you were homeless, she'd take you in (and mix you a Pink Lady at her cocktail bar). As far as Walford was concerned, if you had Pat on your side, you were made.
She was the (diamonte-studded, gold plated) jewel in Walford鈥檚 crown. When she died聽in 2012, all of Walford turned out to mourn the death of a true Walford icon. The End of an Earring.
