4113. Mister Nosey



Mr. Nosey is the fourth book in the Mr. Men series by Roger Hargreaves. The character of Mr. Nosey lives up to his name, along with his big nose. He is always snooping around in other people's business, much to their annoyance. Mr. Nosey appears under the titles Monsieur Curieux (French), Don Entrometido (Spain), Don Metomeentodo (Mexico), Mr. Trwyn-Ym-Mhopeth (Welsh), Unser Herr Neugierig (German), Meneer Langneus/Meneertje Wijsneus (Dutch), Ο Κύριος Αδιάκριτος (Greek), 好奇先生 (Taiwan), 참견씨 (Korean), ﻞ‎ﻮ‎ﻀ‎ﻓ ﻯﺎﻘﺁ (Persian), Fætter Snus (Danish), Gubben Nyfiken (Swedish) and Senhor Narigudo (Portuguese). On the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, Mr. Nosey (Mr. Nosy in the US broadcast) is light green, has a shape similar to that of Mr. Greedy, his nose is an orange oval, has one curl of hair, and wears a black necktie. He is also often seen with his best friend Mr. Small. He may be stronger than Mr. Strong, and often when he jumps he breaks things, like in the Lake episode where he breaks the wooden platform. His catchphrase is "Just looking". He lives with Mr. Small in an observatory with a large telescope that comes out of the roof. In the US and UK versions, he is voiced by Danny Katiana and Steve Kynman respectively.
