PLAYBY: John Cleese
FULL NAME: Harry John Edly
NICKNAMES: The Guv
AGE: 60
GENDER: Male
ETHNICITY: British
STUDENT OR STAFF: Staff- English Teacher
HALL: Dakota
PERSONALITY: Prone to bout's of swearing and name-calling, Guv is a character that always provides to entertain. He is never boring, and can always be relied upon to make any lesson hilarious. He takes some getting used, but overall is a much loved character by all. He loves teaching style is very much different, and often has a way of skipping on the required material, and using his own preferred choices. The Guv is a law unto himself and doesn't mind much that there are rules to be adhered to.
He also falls into depression easily, and then becomes thoroughly drunk on red wine. This happens with cricket matches and various other happenings. He also just drinks, and then has a very good reason for being totally funny. His phrase line is "Exit! Pursued by a bear" and has left many students wondering if their teacher doesn't belong in the loony bin.
The Guv's unmistakable appearance of tweed suit, can have him recognised anywhere on campus, but mostly it's the swearing and comedic actions. Underneath, he really is a caring and compassionate character, and can be trusted.
BACKGROUND: The Guv was born in London, but moved to South Africa when he was 7. His dad worked for some or other business, and his mom was stay at home. His life was filled with private schools and such. By the time he was 13, he went to boarding school in Natal. (The same that Julian went to) After he matriculated, The Guv went to Oxford and studied English and teaching. He returned to the private school, and soon he was one of the best teachers around.
He had many a first year (grade 8) in stitches or utterly shocked the first time they met him. It can be said that his cricket coaching practices were unorthodox. He threatened the players with total decapitation and death if they lost, and many took him seriously. He's been married (and divorced) three times. His last wife just couldn't take the constant drinking any longer, and packed up and left. The Guv took it all in his stride.
Wanting a challenge, he's left the place he's called home for the last 36 years (longer actually) and moved back to England to teach students that weren't just all male.
