| Name: | Grampa Gordon (Dorothy calls him Dad – but nobody knows him by any other name). |
| Age: | Physically a sixty-something Grampa – mentally, an 18 year old |
| Status: | Eccentric knitting-loving Grampa to Giles Gordon |
| Appearance: | Grampa always seems to wear a sleeve-less sweater and red baseball cap (sometimes back to front). He usually carries knitting kneedles and wool |
| Past History: | Unknown. One of the mysteries of the universe. Grampa never talks about his past or what he did for an occupation or other exploits when he was younger. Grampa is an enigma shrouded in a misty mystery. |
| Motives: | Grampa has two main motives – one, to keep his mysterious past a secret unknown to anyone except himself and two: to look after his family members. Grampa loves his daughter, Dorothy (whom he calls “Dennis”) and grandson, Giles. But will these two motives ever clash – and if so, what happens then? |
| Influences: | Television. Grampa adores it. His lifelong ambition has been to be on TV and he has applied to over 487 quiz shows. He narrowly missed out on the TV quizshow “10 questions about wool” because it was axed due to low ratings (only 6 people watched it – 5 of them were family members of the makers of the show). His other influence is his family. And his mysterious past… |
| Strengths: | Knitting. Grampa is an amazing knitter. He once knit a motorbike out of barbed wire. He is also very determined and will never give up when facing the odds – unless the odds are too big… |
| Weaknesses: | Knitting. Grampa loves knitting so much it is a distraction for him at times. Likewise television – he sits for hours and hours glued to the TV (in fact, he once glued himself to the TV and firemen had to cut him free. He hoped at the time he might make it on the local news TV due to this mishap and fulfil his ambition to appear on TV). |
| Catchphrases: | “Dennis!” (to Dorothy), “I’m trying to watch TV” or “Don’t ask questions!” (when asked about his past), and “Giles Gordon is an alien!” |
| Secrets: | This Grampa is a walking secret – he is secrecy in motion. He has more secrets than the secret service. What are his secrets? Sorry – that’s a secret… |
| Rumours: | Rumour has it that Grampa’s daughter, Dorothy, is not really his natural daughter. Another rumour is that Grampa’s grandson, Giles, is really an alien. I find it hard to believe these rumours though there may be truth to the rumour that Grampa once knitted a scraf that was so long it went from the Earth to planet Neptune, where a group of aliens used it to wrap around their long green necks to keep warm (after all, it is cold in space so this is a plausible rumour)… |
