Mark Wheelhouse
Biography
Mark Wheelhouse is one the most famous members of the Upper Sixth in BRGS. As research has shown, not one person in the whole of upper sixth doesn't know his name, or his last name. This is a result of most people generally just nodding to him while he passes and say "Wheelhouse" - as he nods back. Not to mention that fact of the obsession that people such as Andy Booth show towards him, pretending to laugh at him (behind his back of course) but actually admiring the guy for some bizarre reason.
Mark has been known to wonder to himself why everyone knows his name. Opinions vary as to the reason, but most make the conclusion that it's because he has such a large head compared to his relatively small body. Both students and teachers are baffled by the mechanism through which his head actually manages to stay on his shoulders - and how he keeps upright without his head weighing him down.
Mark is a resident of the Upper Common Room, and can usually be found for enquiries near the pool table, getting 8-balled by other students with little or no pool skills. However, approach with caution as Mark is known to bite ankles at will.
He is also a very prominent topic of conversation in his Business Studies class, due to his ever so obvious talent for picking up the ladies. He is also one of many people that Mr Jackson likes to victimise in his lessons, due to his very short attention span and lack of comeback ability.
