Too soon?

Is that where the whole “Daphne gets fat” storyline came from? If so, I never knew! It always seemed a bit strange to me that she’d suddenly get fat.

Really, there’s never a BAD time for a baby abduction & murder joke.

Yep, that was how they explained Jane Leeves pregnancy, though they did pad her out so that she wasn’t just round-bellied, round-faced and otherwise still slim. The subsequent “Daphne’s at the fat farm” absence was her maternity leave.
