Thanks for that.

In Missing Necklace, while posing as one of the statues in the wax museum, what leads to Fatty being discovered and captured by the baddies, and how does he get free?

Correct, Yak!
Goon sneezes but as he is up the back behind Fatty, it is poor Fatty who gets discovered. It is Larry who comes back to find him after Goon refuses to untie him.
Well done and over to you.

I just remember there being a line in there about Bets admiring him (which has been cut out of modern editions but is definitely in my 1970s paperback), so I assume he was one of the waxworks, but I'm away from home at the moment and can't check either. I definitely could be wrong, so if someone corrects me I'll be happy to hand the next turn over to them.

Well, I'll be home tomorrow and I can check then! :wink: I'll want to have the books on hand before I try to think of another question anyway.

Winston Churchill is included in the waxworks. I checked in the book this morning.
