Dr. Black / Mr. Boddy Dr. Black (UK) / Mr. Boddy (US), a stock character and generic victim, is the owner of Tudor Close (later known as Tudor Manor, Tudor Hall, and Boddy Mansion). In ''Cluedo'', he is the unseen host who is murdered, which inspires the quest to discover who murdered him, with what weapon, and what room in his mansion the crime occurred. Dr. Black was listed in the original patent filing as one of the 10 characters created for the game, in which one character was drawn from the suspect cards to be the new victim before the start of a game. Although the victim and player assignments were never intended to be the same, Samuel Black became the permanent victim in the UK and Mr. Boddy in North America before the publication of the first edition. Mr. Boddy's name is a pun on the fact that the character is a dead body. In the Clue (film), film, Mr. Boddy is primarily portrayed by Lee Ving ...
