One Man, Poo Suspect

Published Friday 20 January 2012 at 17:49

Continuing our Twitter theme this week, Tabard has something nasty to report from the hottest show in town, One Man, Two Guvnors, which is playing the West End ahead of a Broadway transfer. It seems that an intruder has slipped in among the performers.

Tabard is concerned for the wellbeing of the cast after a tweet issued by actor Oliver Chris - “Someone has left an enormous poo in the official One Man, Two Guvnors toilet. It’s been there since Saturday and it’s starting to scare us.”

And if this was not a frightening enough revelation from the corridors of power, it was swiftly followed by another - “Poogate thickens (as it were). I think [actor] Fred Ridgeway is responsible but he’s denying all knowledge”. Chris even signed this tweet off with a new hashtag for the show - #OneManPooGuvnors.

Murky are the depths of Tabard’s findings into this incident, and we wish Mr Chris every success in his hunt for the truth.
