Reception
Kevin O'Sullivan, writing for the Sunday Mirror, was critical of Drew's performance as May. Discussing the character's exit, he deemed that Drew's "extreme over-acting" and "OTT guttural sobbing turned manic May into a comical, rather than frightening character."
Radio Times included May on their feature on bunny boilers. Describing her they stated: "A prime example of a sexist stereotype: a woman driven beyond distraction by her frustrated desire to be a mother."

“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
