Mrs Mangel

Eleanor "Nell" Mangel was a character in Neighbours from Episode 242 - 29 April 1986 to Episode 842 - 25 October 1988. She was the first female villian of the show and always rubbed up the other residents of Ramsay Street the wrong way so it is no wonder everyone breathed a huge sigh of relief when she left Ramsay Street in October 1988 to live 12000 miles away in England, never to return to Erinsborough. One lady who was pleased to see her go was Madge Bishop. Mrs Mangel was played by Vivean Gray.

Backstory
Nell (Unknown maiden surname) was born in about 1925. She had a sister Isabelle. Nell met and married Len Mangel in about 1946 and they had a daughter Amanda Mangel in 1950 and Joe Mangel in 1962. Len and Nell split up in about 1980.

1986-1988
Mrs Mangel began frequenting The Lassiters Complex in April 1986 and rubbed people up the wrong way with her interfering, including reporting Clive Gibbons to the police for unlicensed trading. She then moved into No 32 Ramsay Street in June 1986. She began poking her nose into all the neighbours businesses and was dishing out unwanted advice and always grassing up the troublesome teenage residents to their parents.

In mid 1988 Mrs Mangel met John Worthington. He was from England and offered Nell the opportunity to move there once they married. In October 1988, Mrs Mangel married John and the following day they waves goodbye to Ramsay Street forever. Nell had finally left Ramsay Street and Erinsborough behind to move 10'000 miles to England. Everyone in the street breathed a high sigh of relief when the old battleaxe emigrated.

Post 1988,living in England
Nell Mangel settled down to life as Mrs Worthington and settled in St Alban's, Hertfordshire. She was plagued by a few health problems once she arrived in England. She had a heart attack and had to have a massive heart bypass operation. She was faced with huge medical expenses and sold No 32 but Helen Daniels had bought it. Mrs Mangel kept in touch with Helen via letters and Helen informed Nell of what is going on in Ramsay Street. After Helen died in 1997, Mrs Mangel probably was unable to keep track on what is going on in Erinsborough so much as Joe and Jane had left the area by then.

In 2005, it was stated that Nell is still alive and living in England.
