Harold Brown , better known as Grandad is the father of the late Redser and father-in-law to Agnes. Grandad is fairly fit for his age, being able to walk without a stick and is seen very nearly running in one episode.

The two have a deep rivalry, and are sometimes quite horrible to each other, examples of which include: Agnes forcing Grandad to sing a Western song and hitting him with a tray, Grandad trapping Agnes behind the Christmas tree, Agnes trying to get rid of Grandad for two weeks and Grandad referring to her as "The Twat". Despite their animosity to each other, Agnes and Grandad have been shown to genuinely care for each other, even if they conceal it very well. On Valentine's Day, Grandad gave flowers to Agnes and admitted that he thought his son was foolish for taking Agnes for granted. On another occasion, when Grandad was to go to the hos...

While his scan was initially delayed due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Dermot was finally seen to by doctors last week who delivered the happy news that he was cancer-free. "I'm over the moon, it's such a load off my mind,...
