Ukridge

Take, for example, the time when Ukridge sets up an insurance syndicate with some pals, the success of which depends on one of them breaking a leg. Or his attempts to manage Battling Billson, a boxer who has his own idea of a good fight. There are those occasions where Ukridge has irritated his Aunt Julia more than a wasp in her glove and those when the cash-flow has sadly dried up to less than a trickle. Down he May be, but Ukridge, complete with his yellow mackintosh and flapping ears, is seldom out.
