Where is she now?

The end of Series 4 saw Margaret suffering from depression. She died on the mountain of hypothermia.

She married motorbike fanatic and coal miner George in 1961 and they had two children - Steve, born a year later and Ceri in 1974. During her married life, Margaret worked at the local bookmakers eventually becoming its manager.

When George was made redundant from the pit in 1984 he decided to live his dream and opened the garage in partnership with Steve and with Margaret's help as the firm's accountant. They worked hard on it for a few years but in 1986 George was diagnosed with emphysema and Margaret nursed him through the last painful months of his life.

Love in Spain...

A year after George's death, Margaret started seeing Will James and the relationship continued in a quiet - if dull - way for 10 years. It ended in the first series, when Margaret met Tom, 37, and rode off to Spain on the back of his motorbike, leaving Ceri and Jake behind in the house.

However, things didn't work out - as well as missing Bryncoed and her family, she had doubts about just how long-term her relationship with a much younger man would be. So she went back to Bryncoed, and realised she was home.

Life back in Bryncoed wasn't easy though - Steve and Ceri seemed to resent her reappearance almost as much as her desertion of them, and she had to work hard to regain their confidence. She slowly managed to regain their trust, and resist a slide back to her old, cosy relationship with Will. She also patched things up with daughter-in-law Ruth, and bought herself a cottage to renovate.

Getting into business...

In Series 3, Bryncoed's glamorous gran got the carpet pulled from under her feet thanks to hotshot wheeler dealer Robbie Owen. However, it wasn't the pull of romance this time - but money and the world of big business. After wrangling over the family garage business, Margaret allowed her son Steve to sell his half of the business to mobile phone mogul Robbie, but decided to keep her half as a new venture. Their business relationship was initially rocky, but they eventually managed to find a compromise - with Margaret making most of them.

Her reputation as a Valleys vamp refused to die down, especially when she started a titillating tango with a silky smooth charmer called Chris, who happened to be married. She thought she could handle the moral ambiguity, but realised that she couldn't, and resolved that George was her man, and that romance no longer has a place in her life. Although living up in her cottage above Bryncoed, members of her family still constantly turned to her for help and advice, especially Barb and her grandkids.

Nursing Barb...

With Barb on the decline due to illness, Margaret let out her cottage and moved in to help her through the worst. It was unsettling to Margaret to nurse her husband's sister through a potentially fatal cancer and brought back many sad memories.

However, one thing Margaret would never do was shirk her duty and she devoted herself to Barb in the same way that she devoted herself to George all those years ago. However, she couldn't care for Barb and hold down her full-time job, especially with a demanding boss like Robbie. She resigned from the garage and threw herself wholeheartedly into caring for Barb only to discover that her sister-in-law had found a new friend in the shape of eccentric Gordon.

Margaret wasn't used to being the odd one out but suddenly she found herself playing the gooseberry and didn't like it. She tried to find another job but met with an ageist response and her confidence plummeted. She still showed a brave face to the world but inside she was slipping into a depressive state, unable to ask for help from her many friends and relatives.

Margaret is now deceased.
