Lord Snooty was the longest running cartoon strip in the Beano comic. The central character was Marmaduke Lord Bunkerton, known to his friends as Snooty, a very ordinary boy who just happens to be an Earl.

The strip featured the following characters:

  • Snooty
  • Aunt Mat(ilda?), Snooty's guardian.
  • Samuel, the castle guard.
  • Snooty's friends (who appear to live with him in Bunkerton Castle):
    • Joe - very fat and greedy.
    • Scrapper - loves to fight.
    • Liz - a very tall girl.
    • Thomas - hair like a question mark (cf. Doubting Thomas)
    • Rosie - short blonde girl.
    • Polly - a black girl.
    • Snitch and Snatch - identical twins.
  • Other characters:
    • Angus, Snooty's pet stag.
    • Cyril, The Castle Jackdaw.
    • The Gasworks Gang, sworn enemies of Snooty and his pals.
