Alf Stokes

Alfred "Alf" Stokes was the scheming butler of the series. He is Ivy's father and in spite of being separated is still married to Ivy's mother. He also has a relationship with Mrs. Lipton. Throughout the series, Alf devises a number of schemes to scam Lord Meldrum of his money and possessions, although these usually fail.

After the Meldrums' decline, Alf returned to showbiz, together (though just temporarily) with his daughter, Ivy.
