The word 'wife' doesn't seem to appear in TWB, but yes you're right on Mrs Mellanby.
Mebbe someone with all the scripts downloaded and a decent grep function could compile a 7cyclopaedia entry ? (It amused me slightly that the 'M' entries included seemingly B7-irrelevant trivia on the 'M16 assault rifle', and sod-all on 'marriage'.)
The word "wife" only appears in 5 episodes (not sure about the radio plays - can't bear to listen to them again to find out):
AFTERMATH:
Mellanby: Instead, the security forces massacred everyone, men, women, and children. That night I watched them all die. My own wife, my friends, everybody.
POWERPLAY:
Avon: My name is Chevron, this is my wife, Dayna.
DAWN OF THE GODS:
Tarrant: You had a family on Xaranor? Groff: A wife and two children.
RUMOURS OF DEATH:
Sula: No, Chesku. This is no kind of a joke. Chesku: I don't understand. You're my wife.
Grenlee: Stopped them? Forres: Councilor Chesku and his wife. Maybe we should have stopped them leaving the surveillance zone.
Grenlee: Absolutely, Section Leader. And what I say is that if a High Councilor wishes to swing stark naked through the trees and spit on the surveillance scanners, then swinging stark naked through the trees, spitting on the surveillance scanners, becomes standard procedure, at least for him. Or his wife.
Grenlee: [V.O.] Councilor Chesku and his wife left the perimeter some time ago, ma'am. They were taking the air.
Grenlee: [V.O.] Have you seen Councilor Chesku and his wife?
POWER:
Nina: I'm the wife of Gunn Sar. Kate: Wife? But you're a Seska.
