I picked from your list, but actually my favourite factory casual was the Polish Vicki.

Was Suzy Birchall as Baldwin's Casuals employee? I know she was manager of Mike's denim store. If so Suzy was my fav Baldwin's Casuals employee.
Anon: Polish Vivki worked for Underworld, not Baldwin's Casuals.
Suzie only worked for a few months in 1979 as a machinist. I've chosen the more longer term characters.
My fav was always Angie, who came from design school. An intelligent, educated young woman: not many of them on the street!
