Hahaha Big Al! He also drinks ghastly tisanes instead of good old tea, and is weirdly particular about his clothes, wearing patent leather shoes and spats even in the snow. I reckon he has OCD, because he's forever adjusting ornaments and furniture around his flat so that they're exactly symmetrical and in the right place. He's inordinately proud of his enormous, waxed moustache, and horribly patronising to his friend, Captain 'astings.

I much prefer Miss Marple. :)
