Dick Sleuth: Cast

Dick Sleuth- Dick Sleuth, all his life he’d dreamed of becoming an airline pilot. But when they told him he was too short he fell back on his secondary profession of private investigation (his name kind of lent itself to the whole business).

Unfortunately there isn’t much call for moustachioed detectives with idiotic sidekicks and the deductive reasoning of a cabbage; most of Dick’s clients are chronically stupid or half-insane…or both!

Vinnie ( The Idiotic Sidekick)- What would Dick be without his loyal sidekick and cousin Vinnie, well probably successful. But one thing is for sure; without Vinnie, Dick’s adventures would be a lot more…short.

Vinnie tends to take the P.I. profession a little too seriously, and he probably has the job of a P.I. confused with that of a secret agent. In fact he doesn’t leave the office to bring the milk in without dressing himself in a sharp tuxedo.

The Tramp- No one knows The Tramp’s real name, no one has cared enough to find out. Perhaps he doesn’t even have one. Maybe he has been known as The Tramp his entire life; perhaps that’s what his mother named him, we may never know.

He may not have a home, and he may have bin bags for shoes but that doesn’t stop the Tramp from forcing his political opinions on everyone who hands him a spare copper. The Tramp is always willing to stand up for the little guy. The trouble is, he’s about as little as they come.

Never one to be told what to do he sleeps where he wants, eats what he wants (as long as it’s in his usual trashcan) and says what he thinks- it’s a just a shame nobody ever bothers to listen.

Mrs Kankle- Mrs Kankle lives in a world of denial. She simply cannot come to terms with the fact she is a wizened old hag with all the sex appeal of a dead ferret. Constantly trying to seduce anyone within a three-mile radius she often repulses her mark to the point of nausea rather than seduce him.
