Badfort Crowd

The inhabitants of the "dingy fortress" of Badfort in J.P. Martin's Uncle books. Badfort is an enormous fortress-cum-council-estate-cum-dark-satanic-mill that blights the landscape in front of Homeward, the enormous collection of towers in which Uncle[?] lives. The Badfort Crowd are nominally headed by the Hateman family, Beaver[?], Nailrod Snr[?], Nailrod Jnr[?], Filljug[?], and Sigismund[?], with the support of Flabskin[?], Oily Joe[?], the dwarvish, cowardly, skewer-throwing Isidore Hitmouse[?], the scheming ghost Hootman[?], and Jellytussle[?], an animated mound of purplish jelly.
