P.C. Arthur Selby, also known as Constable Selby in Postman Pat: The Movie, is a policeman who lives in Greendale. He is also the father of Lucy Selby and the grandson of Great-Grandpa Selby
Biography
A foreigner in valley terms, he comes from London and has lived in Greendale for only ten years. He is well liked and knows when to (reasonably) turn a blind eye. His daughter is Lucy Selby.
In the fourth series, he earned a police car dubbed the Panda Car, which has now become his main transportation in the series ever since. Before this he had a bicycle which has rarely been used since the third series.
Personality
As a policeman, P.C. Selby is very law abiding citizen; health and safety is his number one concern, although he does over exaggerate on some of His cases. He also has a crush on Doctor Gilbertson.
Appearance
He is mostly shown wearing a 1970s-1980s police uniform and a bobby helmet. He is sometimes shown without his custodian helmet on some occasions, mostly because he cannot fit into his panda car wearing it.
Job
Arthur Selby is a police constable serving Greendale.
