Dot Brannings life policy

[dot.hawkes]

1) how much a month would she have to be paying in to a life insurance that would pay 50K !!!!!! 2) How could she afford that sort of policy on her laundrette wage and meagre pension??? 3) Jim would be her beneficiary under her will and if she dies before Jim then the money goes to Jim's sons and daughter as it would be his to bequeath. 4) So Nick will have to top his Mum and his Step Dad to benefit
5) But I doubt Dot has written a will naming Nick anyway, she's probably named Bradley at this point in the story line.
6) Yes I know, it';s a soap!

I always thought that little Dotty was to good to be true!
And can you really imagine a little girl saying to her father "Why settle for 4 figures when we can get 5?!!"
And yes I know too, it's a soap!

i have a LI policy that will pay 3 times that for 20 quid a month

Isn't there a kind of deja vu thing going on here? I seem to remember Nasty Nick trying to knock Dot off once before for some wedge. Could this be a case of soapery repeating itself?
