So, our third job has turned out to beBeauty and the Beast!
Cogworth is a sort of a majordomo, thats his real job isnt it, yes?
Hes reduced considerably in scale and probably doesnt much enjoy that.
McKellen jokes although maybe not entirely that he tried to get Cogsworth his own song in the film.
My name is Cogsworth!/And Im a clock!/Tick-tock!
