Large Ham/Literature: Difference between revisions

** Mr. Boggis is in danger of being killed by the god of Over-Acting in ''Thud!''.

** Let's not forget Wolfgang from ''The Fifth Elephant''. May be justified in his case, he is a werewolf who cares little for human culture or normalcy. His personality may be based on the speaking version of an annoying, constantly barking dog.

* There's one in the [[Jane Austen]] novel ''Pride and Prejudice'' - Lady Catherine du Burgh in any incarnation, but especially as played by Dame Judi Dench in the film version.

* [[Ciaphas Cain]], '''[[Fake Ultimate Hero|HERO OF THE IMPERIUM]]''' is actually a [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstruction]] of the [[Large Ham]]. He puts on one ''hell'' of a show for the average Imperial citizen, in reality, he just wants to get away from it all. He privately admits that he's ''never'' averse to being the center of attention when it doesn't involve incoming fire.
