It looks like she appeared in one earlier cartoon "A large, fat and grotesquely unattractive rabbit with an Eastern European accent and a violent temper, as she destroys everything in the guest room and throws tantrums."

In 1984, director Peter Svatek and an all-star crew, including future Oscar winners, created a 30 second sci-fi epic that still lives on

I say this as someone who was an England fan back when I liked this sport: they are the Maple Leafs of soccer. Both will always will be dreadful even when their team is good.
