Hattie

Hattie, played by Steve Pemberton, featured only in the second series, is a makeup artist who once worked with Bonnie Tyler. Her homosexual friend Chris has taken a liking to an Iranian waiter in a local cafe named Sharouz, but because his visa expires soon, he asks Hattie to marry Sharouz in order to keep him in the country. Taking the affair a bit too seriously, she marries and sleeps with the petrified Sharouz and later in the morning chains him to the bedroom radiator to prevent him escaping. Going to work, she prepares Debbie for her television interview and eventually tips the contents of Kenchington's locket (partially glittery dust particles) down the drain.
