TOMMY, real name Tom Bell, is spongy to the touch, like malt loaf, and with a similar smell. His look is an unlikely marriage of failed, teenage band member and a drowned Elizabethan. From behind you could well mistake him for an (off-duty) Japanese sailor and he is almost entirely invisible to the elderly (one time a man read a book through him).

Though at one with most wildlife, his animal vocabulary is small, only knowing how to order beer, ask where the swimming pool is and a few of the worse mouse swearwords. His body mass is the human average, 60% water, however all of it is concentrated in his left leg which he has to wrap in plastic to avoid electrocution/losing whilst swimming. He enjoys inventing rhymes to help remember things and is constantly surprised by oranges.

Tommy is unable to hold eye contact for more than 5 seconds without becoming emotional, even with plants. Children don't like him as much as you might imagine and he has never met a celebrity.
