Emily Howard is a very unconvincing transvestite who owns a guest house in Old Haven. She wears old Victorian womans clothing and often trails back into her masculine mannerisms. In Season 2 a friend who was also a transvestite was introudced, Florence.
In Season 1 she visited a pub and while visiting the toilet, a man that she had been flirting with caught her urinating standing up.
Apperance
Emily wears an old, frilly Victorian dress which is long and is always worn.
Toilet
In most episodes Emily goes to the male toilets and stands up when he urinates but in one episode, when Florence goes to the toilet Emily tells him to go to the female toilets and to "sit down when [he] pisses".
Guest House
Emily owns a Guest House in Old Haven in which she invites vistors to stay their like a bed and breakfast. There are fairly strict rules including that the doors are locked at 8:00pm. And that no one can come into Emily's room, because it's Emily's private room as "any man could walk in on me (Emily)".
...'N' Shit
Often, Emily gets tired of being feminine, and she often ends sentences with '...and shit'.
Football
Before he became a transvestite, Emily played left-back for Queens Park Rangers F.C. Still now, as a transvestite, he loves football. When Emily and Florence walked past some boys playing football, Emily couldn't resisit the urge and joined in, scoring a goal. This highly shocked Florence.
History
Before becoming a transvestite Emily (then Eddie) worked as a docker, a hod-carrier and spent some time in the SAS. He has appeared on television numerous times, including on Kilroy (Topic: My wife has left me for wearing her dresses) and Trisha (Topic: Cocks in Frocks).
He has also often auditioned for 'The Oldhaven Amateur Dramatics Societ' but has failed to be cast as Juliet, Blanche, Dubois and Lady Bracknell.
