My understanding is that Kathleen Potter and Kathleen Baker are one and 
the same, so either she changed her name or adopted a pseudonym.I had 
left Granada at the time of the Channel 4 repeat, so have no personal 
knowledge of what the answer is.Any use of the characters outside the 
series A FAMILY AT WAR without my permission would be a violation of the 
terms of my contract.  This would apply to a remake of the series.   JF
