Mr. Plod
Mr. Plod (born 17 July, 1954) is a fictional character in the Noddy children's series by Enid Blyton. He is a forthright police officer who never lets Toyland's crooks escape from the "long arm of the law," especially Sly and Gobbo, the two goblins, He always pretends to know the problem, but can never quite figure it out. His uniform is that of the English police constable's.
In later adaptations, he is also known as P.C. Plod or Officer Plod.
Plod has since become English slang for a police officer, in honor of Mr. Plod.
