Mrs. Dilber is a character in The Muppet Christmas Carol. A winged insect Muppet, Mrs. Dilber is amongst the group who've scavenged from Ebenezer Scrooge's home. Mrs. Dilber memorably took his blankets. In most versions of the story though not within the film's dialogue, the character is identified as Scrooge's charwoman.
In the director's commentary on the film's DVD release, Brian Henson states that in approaching the scavengers scene, he imagined that Mrs. Dilber and Old Joe had at one point had a romantic relationship.
