{{Quote|Ms Everywhere was, in my mind, intended to be a bit brusque, combined with moments of gentleness - witness her "come along, you'll be late!" tempered with "oh, you don't really know [what you are] yet, do you?" Her reaction to Johnny Everywhere was kind of meant to be an illustration of the fact that she's "a woman of her generation" - Ms Everywhere is what - late 60s? Early 70s? [...] She isn't meant to be particularly bigoted, just a little... set in her ways, maybe? [...] Maybe my granny wouldn't think like that at all, but I suspect she would. [...] Of course, hindsight is a wonderful thing. Perhaps the segment needed more thought... perhaps there's no need for it at all. Perhaps it's actually quite offensive... [...]  Maybe someone would like to do a Johnny Everywhere story. Maybe I should to set the record straight.|David Barnett}}
