The writers created a running joke for the character, where he gets injured in
almost every episode, from falling in swimming pools, landing in dikes, having his feet set in concrete by developers or simply hit by falling crucifixes or golf balls.
Gloria Millington (played by Celia Imrie) is a legal secretary who is recovering from the death of her husband a year before the first series. [7] She has a young son (played by Angus Imrie, the actress's son) and is "the sister he (Peter) deserved" but never had. [4] Gloria is antagonised by Beatrice during the first series, but the two become friends after a day out together. Sidney Snell (played by Tony Slattery) is a smelly local and a frequent client of Peter who often
finds ways to sue the local council. Slattery described Snell as an "everyman anti-hero", with Wheeler calling him an "unlikely guardian of Market Shipborough" on account of his numerous attempts to stop building work. [4] Snell develops a close friendship with the recently widowed Gloria in the first series. To emphasise his unwashed state, the wardrobe department rotated Snell's costume only once in the first series. [4] Aunt Auriel (played by Phyllida Law) is Peter's aunt and confidante. She lives in a retirement home on a large country estate.
[40] The script meetings were
unusually long, beginning with the synopsis and ending up with the final form, alongside off-topic conversation that was sometimes incorporated into that episode's plot. [8] Due to Watanabe's reputation and the success of his projects in the West, the anime was created with a Western audience in mind with the expectation that it
would be more successful outside Japan. This resulted in more overt references to Western culture being included. [41] An assassin character who appeared in the second episode was intended to appear during the finale, but he was cut due to time constraints and a general lack of people remembering his earlier appearance. [5] Nakazawa had trouble getting a feel for the characters, with Mugen's design still going through adjustments when production on the first episode began. For the animation of Mugen's fighting style, the team used gymnastic footage as a reference alongside incorporating breakdancing moves.
