About this deal

It was intended to help protect the close dependents of someone who has died – preventing a step-parent from impoverishing the children by walking off with everything, for example (exactly as happened to the retail expert Mary Portas and her brother when they were teenagers). Professor Sarah Harper is the director of the Oxford Institute of Population Ageing – a rather solemn reference to the happy fact that people are living longer, and in better health, than ever before. We are now moving into an adapted generational contract, which means that older people have more responsibility for themselves than in the past. Under this law, in the words of the original district judge, Melita “owed her daughter the ordinary family obligations of a mother towards her only child who was an independent adult”. In a statement released to The Bolton News, Mr Dibnah’s family said: “The settling of the estate’s affairs has been an extremely protracted process and unfortunately, for many reasons, its financial expectations have not been realised.

Sheila Dibnah was in the audience on Thursday to see the curtain go up on The Demolition Man at Bolton’s Octagon Theatre. I didn’t want Fred to be remembered as a man who cut his wife out of his will because that wasn’t the Fred I knew. We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues. Mr Dibnah cut the former Blackpool showgirl out of his will just weeks before he died in November, 2004. Perhaps Melita’s reasons went all the way back to the summer of 1960, three months before Heather was born, when Heather’s father had died suddenly in an industrial accident, leaving Melita pregnant and alone.

When Melita Jackson decided to disinherit her daughter Heather, she knew what she was doing, and her decision was clear.

Unfortunately for the offspring, this also means watching what they’d started to think of as their inheritance being slowly spent. After a successful stage career that took her all over the world, she met Fred Dibnah in 1996 and married him two years later. Melita disapproved of Nicholas, believing he wasn’t good enough for her daughter, but Heather refused to come back and there was nothing her mother could do to make her. Mrs Dibnah also backed a campaign by Leon Powsney, who has turned the couple’s former Radcliffe Road house into a heritage centre, to bring the engine home. As a child – and much to her mother’s despair – she was more interested in toy cars, spanners and dirty grid-lids than the more traditional girl’s pursuits.

For adult children, before the Ilott case, you were pushing water uphill … [Now] we can argue cases for adult children that we probably couldn’t before. This assumes, by no means safely, that the RSPCA, the RSPB and Blue Cross, who were legally compelled by Melita’s will to fight her daughter, do not open yet another chapter of the whole sad story by taking the case to the supreme court. Her mother, Melita Jackson, reported her missing, and Heather was eventually found living with her boyfriend, Nicholas Ilott, and his family.
