Throughout the years they’ve brought us joy, sadness, hope, comfort and a lot of laughs. We pay tribute to three marvellous matriarchs of Australian television.

Kim (Gina Riley) fights with Sharon (Magda Szubanski) when Sharon wants a turn on the computer. It’s up to Kath (Jane Turner) to resolve the situation.

Maggie (Ruth Cracknell) is upset by a letter from the government over a letter about her pension cheques.
