It's actually SCAN. I've just checked - she's not named in STUD, then she's Mrs. Hudson in SIGN, Mrs. Turner in SCAN, and thereafter she's Mrs. Hudson again.

And I had considered this but it just doesn't work as a joke. Apart from the dramatis personae, that phrase 'MRS TURNER kneels at his feet' is the first reference to Mrs. Hudson in the fic. It throws the reader (or at least this particular reader ^_^), rather than amusing them - especially as later on Mrs. Turner is treated as a separate character to Mrs. Hudson.

I assume the other, anonymous reply to my comment is from the author, and they do seem to be admitting it was a slip because they were in a rush ^__^
