## Biography

**NOTE:** *The following information in this section is only canon for the 2002 edition of Clue, and is considered outdated by the franchise's recent rebranding.*

Miles Meadow-Brook was born and grew in market town of Egremont, Cumbria, where he had a pleasant, if uneventful childhood. That was until his father, a worker for the Florence Iron Mines, ran off with a gypsy fortune-teller during the Egremont Crab Fair. Miles was devastated, but his mother made the best of an unfortunate situation. She later married the editor of the local newspaper and shipped Miles off to boarding school in Hampshire.

After graduation, he studied law under the watchful eye of a prominent Hampshire magistrate and later joined a local law firm, eventually becoming a partner. When at the local telegraph office to send an urgent wire, he met his future wife, Jane McWhooter, a clerk and operator. Mr. Meadow-Brook was charmed by Miss McWhooter, and their whirlwind courtship quickly led to marriage. His wife proved to be quite a valuable resource, as it was through her that Meadow-Brook first met a future client of his, Sir Hugh Black of Tudor Mansion.

Before his death, Sir Hugh had Mr. Meadow-Brook place his entire estate in a special Trust for his nephew, Mr. John Boddy (a.k.a. Dr. Black), which he would fully inherited on the day of his thirtieth birthday. Sir Hugh also gave some of his associates a allowance, for unknown reasons. These covert payments were a concern to Meadow-Brook, but he has always followed his client’s orders to the letter.
