To quote from Graham McCann's M&W book:"...and Janet Webb, the well-
spoken woman with the generous (49-inch, in fact) embonpoint who
would brush Eric and Ernie unceremoniously aside at the end of each
show..."
Another interesting thing I learnt from that book is that Janet
actually appeared with Eric and Ernie way back in 1964 in their ATV
days. Some of those shows were shown earlier this year on BBC2 but I
didnt watch them because I didnt know she was in some of them! Janet
appeared in approx 30 M&W shows, including Xmas specials between 1969
and 1972.
Another one to watch out for, if it is ever repeated, is an episode
of "Whoops Baghdad" with Frankie Howerd which was called "A Cargo of
Crumpet". Janet had quite a big (sic.) part in that.

NB Oxford English Dictionary definition of embonpoint: plumpness.
