Godfrey Watson

Godfrey is the gardener at Hazelwood Manor.

Godfrey lives in the gatehouse in the Hazelwood grounds, where he can happily keep a close eye on his beloved plants. He’s always been more comfortable around plants than people; due to his Asperger’s Syndrome he finds them much more predictable and easier to understand.

He has always struggled to find work because of his condition, but he’s been at Hazelwood for the last 20 years. He’s the only gardener on the estate, except for the occasional volunteer or contractor, and that’s how he likes it.

Godfrey’s other love is mathematics and he can often be found jotting down his formulas and equations in his trusty notebook. And he’s good at it too. So good in fact that he thinks he’s cracked the lottery. He’s been working on the number sequences for seven years and this time he’s sure he’s finally worked it out; he knows the winning numbers and they’re going to win the lottery….
