Terry Inglis - Character Development

Character Development

Terry was once married to a bank robber, Gordon Miller (Red Symons). She arrives in Ramsay Street after getting a job with Max (Francis Bell). Terry forms "some kind of attachment" to Shane Ramsay (Peter O'Brien), which makes his aunt, Madge (Anne Charleston), uncomfortable. Terry starts dating Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis), but their relationship does not begin well as she is still in love with Shane, who now dating her best friend Daphne Lawrence (Elaine Smith). Paul is late to their wedding and Terry spends the ceremony and the reception looking "cow-eyed" at Shane. Terry later tries to trick Paul out of his money and she shoots him. Their relationship ended in "heartache, attempted murder and inevitable divorce." Terry is sent to prison and the BBC said Terry "suffered in the long run." Terry takes her own life off screen in 1986 and remains the only character to have died this way.

Famous quotes containing the words character and/or development:

    “A character is like an acrostic or Alexandrian stanza;—read it forward, backward, or across, it still spells the same thing.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “As a final instance of the force of limitations in the development of concentration, I must mention that beautiful creature, Helen Keller, whom I have known for these many years. I am filled with wonder of her knowledge, acquired because shut out from all distraction. If I could have been deaf, dumb, and blind I also might have arrived at something.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
