Gentlemen

The Gentlemen are minor characters in Problem Sleuth. Hysterical Dame and Nervous Broad encountered them during their stint on Whore Island.

Dapper Swain
The Dapper Swain is the medium-sized gentleman. When excited he twizzles his moustache, sometimes causing it to ignite. He possesses a PERSONAL GAWKULAR LENS.

At one point the Swain got caught up in the melee between Mobster Kingpin and Fiesta Ace Dick and was crushed for his efforts. Fortunately, he got better.

The Swain is quite taken with HD, and is perhaps an alter-ego of Problem Sleuth.

Mannerly Highbrow
The Mannerly Highbrow is the tall gentleman. He has been known to drop his MONOCLE when flustered.

The Highbrow is clearly infatuated with NB. It's possible he is an alter-ego of Pickle Inspector.

Churlish Toff
The Churlish Toff is the stout gentleman. He doesn't seem to be interested in either of the ladies; his PS 1228 (peeping habits) are in fact quite particular.

Using his OPERA BINOCULARS the Toff was able to climb onto the back of the HAM TRUCK and view part of the battle between Team Sleuth and DMK taking place high in the sky. He found this show to be PS 1338 (particularly pleasing).
