Stanley Staines

Stanley is an apparently normal, likable 11-year-old boy with average skills and interests. He is one of the two main characters in the show, Staines Down Drains, alongside his sister, Mary-Jane Staines.
Stanley's a good kid, a conscientious student and always obeys the rules. However, he has an inner demon - he is fastidious about cleanliness.
He is not exactly obsessive-compulsive, but his germ-phobia tends to get worse when he is under stress - and in this series he is under a lot of stress!
It's bad enough that he has to move to a new house, a new school and a new town where he has to make new friends, but he is drawn into the yuckiest environment possible - the drains! And he can't simply opt out.
He has made friends in Drainland and discovers that they, and the whole town, are under threat - and only he and his sister can help them. So, extremely reluctantly, this ordinary boy becomes an extraordinary hero and, over the course of the series, learns that by confronting his demons he is able to overcome them
