Stubby Boardman was the lead singer of a musical group called the The Hobgoblins, who retired in 1980 after having a turnip thrown at him during a concert in Little Norton at the Church Hall. He and Doris Purkiss appear to be in a relationship.

It was said by The Quibbler in 1995 that he was in fact Sirius Black in disguise. In 1996, The Quibbler claimed this person was Mina Lima in disguise. Both claims were false.
