Dr. Moribundus was a character who appeared in the series 1 episode of the same name.
Description[]
A tall, thin man with a long, black handlebar moustache and pointed goatee, the doctor dressed in a white smock with grey trousers, and a long, high-collared purple cape and wide-brimmed hat. He was accompanied by his assistant, the Night Nurse.
History[]
After another doctor prescribed Dr. Moribundus as a cure for serial skiver Lorelei Lee, the man and his nurse covered Lorelei in leeches and a horrid green chilli mustard poultice before performing brain surgery on the unfortunate girl with an enormous needle the size of a javelin. This cured the girl of her no-School-itis forever after.
Trivia[]
- Although we are never told what procedure Dr. Moribundus actually performed on Lorelei, it was described as being like eating a soft-boiled egg.
- The doctor was also stated as undertaking the surgery on poor Lorelei “just for fun.”
