Barnabus is Dongalor's aide and was his footman back in his academy days, as Alex MacQueen explains: "The others around the palace probably see him as reasonably junior.
"The fact that he has Dongalor's ear means that he can get away with a huge amount and he can wield power in his name I suppose. But in the kitchen and basements everybody is probably thinking that Barnabus has no right to have these ideas above his station."
Alex continues: "Through the eyes of Barnabus, Chancellor Dongalor would be an extremely erratic, dangerous, exciting and colourful figure. His mood swings are absolutely colossal and at first this is a very, very frightening experience but after a while it becomes very exciting to be in his presence at a time like that."
Alex likens Krod Mandoon to The Pink Panther: "Certainly the scenes that I do with Dongalor are very Pink Panther-esque. It is so eccentric in that regard and in terms of likening Krod Mandoon to a TV programme I would probably say Blackadder: there's certainly elements of pantomime to it and also some poignant elements, so it's a nice mix."
