Bashful

He was voiced by Scotty Mattraw in the original film and is currently voiced by Jeff Bennett.

True to his name, he is extremely shy, particularly in front of Snow White.

His tendency to blush, burying his head in his beard, appears to infuriate Grumpy.

Bash-ful is first introduced, with his six companions, at the Dwarfs' Mine. He, Happy, Sneezy and Grumpy dig to unearth diamonds from the tunnels.

The diamonds are taken by Sleepy to Doc, who discards the worthless diamonds for Dopey to sweep away. Doc is the first to hear the alarm, and alerts the other dwarfs that it is time for them to go home.

Bash-ful walks behind Sleepy as the dwarfs sing "Heigh Ho".

When the seven dwarfs reach their cottage, they think that a monster has taken up residence in their house.

They sneak into the cottage and search the room. The dwarfs note that the cottage has been cleaned.

Bash-ful is disappointed to find that the sugar has been washed out of his cup, but is pleased to find flowers, which he shows to Sneezy, causing him to sneeze.

The dwarfs decide that whatever is in the cottage is upstairs, and Doc declares that one of them must go upstairs to chase it out of the house. Dopey is elected, and Doc, his hand shaking, gives Dopey the candle.

Dopey is so terrified upon entering the bedroom that.....

The other dwarfs think that he is the monster and rush outside, locking the door. Dopey falls into the kitchen and emerges from the cottage covered in pots and pans.

When the other dwarfs see him they still think that he is the monster, and start hitting him.

When they realize that it is Dopey, they decide that they must get rid of the monster once and for all, and enter the bedroom.

They are about to strike whatever is sleeping in their beds when they realize that it is the princess, Snow White, who Bash-ful says is "beautiful". Grumpy begins to complain, and Doc attempts to silence him, but Snow White is woken up.

She manages to match the name at the foot of each bed to the correct dwarf, identifying Bash-ful second.
