Guiding Light - Reva vs. India - 1985

Actually India (and MK Adams) weren't the first one to call some other woman a version of "a low born gutter slut". (Not to knock Adams acting any). But a slight variation of that insult was given to Diane Ballard (Alan's long time office assistant/slash before that Philip's original nanny/ slash Alan's mistress) by Carrie Mowry's 2nd version of Jackie Marler & then Henry Chamberlain back in August/September 1981 shortly before Diane was murdered. Jackie & Henry called Diane a

"low born gutter snipe". Jackie also called Diane a "vindictive bitch" & Henry called her something like an "uppity vamp" (can't remember the exact words, since it was shown in flashbacks to the night Diane was murdered). Of course, I was one that always thought it might have been interesting if one of the writers of the show had brought back Sofia Landon as Diane's twin to cause some romantic & business difficulty for Alan (It would have had to be before Annie entered his life, though).
