Childhood and Pre-Canteen Life

In the Canteen
Jean made friends with all of her co-workers but became best friends with Dolly. The two of them constatly bickered and made fun of each other but they were the best of friends, nonetheless. Whilst working at the canteen, Keith, her husband, left her for a dental hygienist, leaving her distraught. She took this out on her colleagues and when confronted, she decided to stay with her Sister named Peggy

After rediscovering her confidence in herself, she had a fling with Barry who was referred "the love muscle". After the relationship didn't work out, she fell for Stan and the two of them got engaged.
