Mr Lamb is an outspoken history teacher and popular culture critic, who lives in Lancashire. Despite humbly working as a teacher, he has earned international acclaim for his corduroy evening wear and paralysing one-liners. He has also earned a place in the hypothetical 'House of Goddesses' in Hogwarts.

Life[edit | edit source]

It is not known when or where Mr Lamb was born, or where he lives, though some say with much conviction - 'The Sky'. However, he has been teaching in Lancashire for at least eight years following an undoubtably successful childhood and early adult life. Born a demi-god, he has not been approached in marriage nor in partnership. However, he does have a colourful history with 'fancypants' Jonathan Philips and the dreaded 'Vampyra' (who has been likened in some ways to 'Balafalafa'). He takes a keen interest in serial killers and the Eurovision Song Contest.
