What does Lilian look like?

They say a picture paints a thousand words... so how many pictures can a voice conjure up?

We asked Archers listeners what they imagine looks like. Here's what they said!

What does Lilian look like?

We asked Archers listeners what Lilian looks like. Here's what they said!

Blonde indeed??? Definitely wavy brunette, greys covered up, bright red lipstick, tailored clothing, Greta Garbo. [Sieglinde Goostrey on ]

I'd like to think she looks like Jane Fonda, but probably more like Lesley Joseph [Manda Qu on ]

I seem to remember Jennifer comparing her favourably to Joan Collins some years ago. [Gill GreenLady Holmes on ]

Short and tubby with ginger hair and dripping with gold [Gary Mitchell on ]

Peroxide blonde, thin but big breasts, skin that has seen too much sun (or sun-bed) expensive clothes too young for her age, talon-like artificial nails and lots of jewellery. [Lynne Thornton on ]

Ooooh to me Lilian is petite... about 5ft 3" & curvy. She is strawberry blonde. Medium length backcomed hair. Twinkly, crinkly blue eyes, turned up nose & full lips. Lots of laughter lines. Tanned. Beautifully made up. She's sexy! 

She wears silk or linen tunics over slim fitting tailored trousers, bright colours or whites & silvers. Ballet pumps or fancy heels. Lots of jewellery. You can hear her coming ... chunky, jangly silver bangles & rings. Her hands are manicured. Short, polished nails. 

She smells of Coco Mademoiselle. [Kellie on ]

All fur coat and no knickers!! [Hannah on ]

Once I might have imagined Lilian as a slim, foxy minx. Having seen the lovely warm smiling pics of Sunny Ormonde, I now can't imagine her any other way. [Minty on ]

So that's blonde, brunette, red-head, thin, curvaceous and ALWAYS fabulous! Thank you for revealing your (many) Lilians!
