The friendly bear from "darkest Peru" – with his old hat, battered suitcase, duffel coat and love of marmalade – has become a classic character in children's literature.
Paddington is always polite and kindhearted, however is known to inflict hard stares on those who incur his disapproval.
He has an endless capacity for innocently getting into trouble, but he is known to "try so hard to get things right".
He was discovered in London Paddington station by the (human) Brown family who adopted him and gives his full name as "Paddington Brown," as his original name in bear language was too hard for them to pronounce.
