Missing in Zwolle

At the Odeon de Spiegel, Zwolle there was some super speedy table service in an amazingly decorated room. Zwolle currently holds the records for the fastest Faulty Towers table service at 4 minutes 50 seconds for a room of over 100. A big thank you to Annette and Ton for inviting the Faulty team back!

We also, sadly, lost an important member of the team when a plastic fish was taken. Any information leading to his return should be tweeted @thefaultytowers.

MISSING:

The fish, the whole fish & nothing but the fish.

Internationally acclaimed touring plastic fish and integral part of Faulty Towers The Dining Experience’s props kit, was last seen on Sunday 3 February 2013 at 15:42 hours, leaving Odeon Theater, Zwolle in woman’s handbag.

A witness explained: “The woman met the fish and became emotionally attached to it almost immediately. It looked just like a fish her recently deceased Father owned.” This is no joke, no laughing matter and certainly no red herring.

The fish (less than 2 months in the team) had been commissioned to replace an older, rather more tired fish (pictured above).  It had been shipped around the world and customised to meet high Faulty standards. Screws and eyes had been added, the body lacquered and the fish weighted in a technique developed by experts over more than a decade.

Please note: If you see the fish please remember he cannot swim due to some weight issues.

Some reactions to the disappearance:

Half fish (and fellow member of the props kit) says:

“I’m in pieces!”

 

Basil Faulty (denies intimate relationship with fish) says:

“I was very attached to it.  I often felt it was a part of me.”

 

Sybil Faulty says:

“The fish will not be missed.”

 

Prop Rat says:

“It could have been me!”

 

Witness 1 – Alice, aged 6 says:

“What fish?”

 

Witness 2 –  Anonymous says:

“He was just in the wrong plaice at the wrong time”

 

Alexander, of the Odeon Zwolle, had this to say on the matter:

“I really don’t know where it is. We don’t have a name.”

 

The fish was a firm favourite in the props kit community and his disappearance will be sorely felt.

Investigations continue. For more updates please see @thefaultytowers.
