| rdfs:comment | - Mr. Bumble (no first name given) is a villain from Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist, which has been adapted into many movies and stage-plays. In the musical Oliver!, he has been made famous for singing the title song. Mr. Bumble is an example of truth in fiction as many Victorian noblemen like him abused orphans and the poor during this time-period, though Oliver ultimately escaped his life of misery. He has been played by many actors, including Francis L. Sullivan in David Lean's 1948 film adaptation, Jeremy Swift in Roman Polanski's 2005 version, and by British comedy entertainer Harry Secombe in the 1968 film.
