lee

occupation sofa gremlin (and part-time comedian)

likes talking to pink cows, causing mischief, lsd

dislikes random young women falling down the back of their sofa and roping him into their quest to return home

summary lee is jess and hannah's guide through sofaland, but abandons them when they return to the real world, which is frankly more crazy than where he came from

 

 

 

 


otto

occupation works at a rubbish dump but dreams of being in a gothic rock band

likes heavy metal. and the music. and hannah

dislikes jess

summary secret animal-related powers and an unusual father show that otto is not all that he seems...

 

 

 


ben and xander
l-r ben, xander

occupation comedians/actors - used to work as a double act but not any more...

like adopting people who have had their brains stolen

dislike arguments over child support, people questioning their frankly questionable relationship

summary adopt jess when hannah steals her brain and assist the girls in ridding the world of gregory the alien

 

 

 


graham, peter and spike
clockwise from bottom: spike, graham, peter

occupation late comedians (in that they are dead, not that they haven't arrived on time)

like reminising about the days when they were alive and british comedy was good

dislike finding out that their friends have fathered an illegitimate child (ie. jess)

summary died in 1989, 1995 and 2002 respectively and are bought back from heaven by jess and hannah. join them on their quest.

 

 

 

 


the incontinent lion

occupation lion

likes roaring, eating, sleeping... general lion things

dislikes being more than three feet away from the nearest bush or tree

summary joins the team in the hope of gaining continence from the wizard. sadly, it didn't work

 

 

 

 


monkey

occupation allowing itself to be knitted by jess

likes being knitted because it brings the feeling of completion one step closer

dislikes being knitted an extra arm by mistake

summary having seen monkey on a tv advert for itv digital, jess wanted to knit herself one, so she does exactly that in Book Three

 

 

 

 


wizard of sofaland

occupation supposedly, wizard. in reality, being annoying and spoilt.

likes harry potter, playing with his toys, turning people into kiwi-fruit and swapping their brains over

dislikes being told what to do, authority

summary completely cocks up the group's quest to return home by switching jess and hannah's brains

 

 

 

 

 


batell

occupation half-man, half-bat. guard of the wild wood in sofaland

likes darkness, flying, insects, his sonar system

dislikes owls, sunshine

summary turns out to be otto's estranged father. helps the crew find the magical flying possum of sofaland

 

 

 

 

 


gregory

occupation alien scout sent to assess earth before his species try to take it over

skills changing into other creatures, such as dogs and moles

shortfalls leaving little messages such as 'gregory woz ere' next to sites of activity

summary we don't know what planet gregory is from. hang on... desperate to conquer, violent, evil... it could be america

 

 

 


saddam

occupation ex-iraqi dictator (jess and hannah wrote Book Three before the recent war on iraq)

likes killing people, his pet nuclear bomb, "rocky"

dislikes jess correcting his english, western infidels

summary we have no idea why saddam entered the story. it was a moment of madness
