Nathaniel is obsessed with this man! In fact he wants to be this man. If you see him outside the old headquarters on the Blackfriars Road trying to channel the spirit of Dr Walford Bodie, don’t be at all surprised!
Dr Bodie was a clairvoyant, electrotherapist, pill-pusher, magician, showman and with the most ground breaking quiff (this was 1900), drape jacket and extreme spiv attire for his times.
He was a Ted before anyone had thought of Teds. The signed copy of The Bodie Book that Nathaniel sleeps with has been an inspiration….mental suggestion is now a selling technique at M.Goldstein!
