Thanks, Julie. :D

Staying with The Mystery of Banshee Towers, a nice easy question:

In Secret Room how did Fatty sign the letter he wrote to the others and what did it tell them to do?

It is indeed, Eddie. (Holly berries, we can assume, as we're told on the next page that he's painting a holly leaf.) Over to you. :D

I believe that Lucy White took the part of Dick Whittington's best girl but, as I can't :shock: remember what the name of this character was, someone else here will need to finish answering this.....

'Aurélien Arkadiusz' :lol:

Correct, Aurélien. You have provided the answer I wanted. The character’s name was Margot. :D
