Rodney - also known as Oliver Hardy, for reasons lost in history. Rod has been in Benidorm since before the war, and has seen many changes. Sadly, one of them is not his hat, which he bought from a fisherman in 1937. His current occupation ranges from van owner/driver to counting sweets in the local sweetshop. He owns a big dog, but it's been barred from The Tad because it smells.
