In 1980, she was cast as Betty Whistler, one of the Maplins' [[HufflepuffHouse Yellowcoats]] in ''Hi-de-Hi!''. After Gladys and Sylvia, Betty was the third most prominent Yellowcoat but would often contribute little to the plot. For whatever reason, Howard left ''Hi-de-Hi!'' after the fifth series, while Betty succumbed to ChuckCunninghamSyndrome.
