I would be interested in this also. The Lexicon refers to Dean as being
black but I don't remember any reference in canon to this. He supports West
Ham and his dad is a milkman (which led to me forming the mental impression
that he was a Londoner and (given his surname and the historical association
between Welsh exiles and the London milk trade) of Welsh descent. But it's
obviously established that this is not so, though I don't remember any
reference explaining this.

Though I have to admit that when I read the description of Lee Jordan, I
immediately formed the mental picture of his being a crusty!

Cheers
