Stanley Featherstonehaugh Ukridge

Stanley Featherstonehaugh Ukridge (/ˈfænʃɔː ˈjuːkrɪdʒ/ FAN-shaw EWK-rij) is a fictional character from the short stories and novels of P. G. Wodehouse.

Ukridge is a schemer who will do anything to increase his capital—except, of course, work. An alert and creative opportunist, he makes sure that no kindness shown to him, however small, will go unexploited for financial gain. Though Ukridge never achieved the gigantic popularity of the same author's Bertie Wooster and Jeeves, Wodehouse retained a certain fondness for him, his last appearance in a Wodehouse story being as late as 1966. With completed new stories appearing over a span of 60 years, he is in fact the longest-running of Wodehouse's characters, topping Jeeves and Wooster (1915–1974, or 59 years) and the denizens of Blandings Castle (1915–1969, or 54 years).

He appears in the following stories:

Standing around 6' 2" tall, with large ears and a loud voice, Ukridge makes a striking figure, generally found wearing worn grey flannel trousers and a golf coat with a bright yellow Mackintosh over it; his collar is rarely properly attached to his shirt, and his pince-nez glasses are held in place with wire from a ginger beer bottle. By way of contrast, he looks exceptionally smart in evening dress (generally borrowed without permission from his friend Jimmy Corcoran, the narrator of most of the stories).
