She is introduced as the matriarch figure of the Butcher family, <a href="/wiki/Frank_Butcher" title="Frank Butcher">Frank Butcher</a>'s (<a href="/wiki/Mike_Reid_(actor)" title="Mike Reid (actor)">Mike Reid</a>) elderly mother. She is portrayed as a battle-axe, tough and interfering. Her most notable storyline first aired in 1990, when the character is used to portray descent into <a href="/wiki/Alzheimer%27s_disease" title="Alzheimer's disease">Alzheimer's disease</a>. Doré opted to leave the serial that same year; Mo was written out of the soap making her last appearance in November.
