Obiter never managed to get to the bottom of what was going on, but, when a drag queen dressed as Queen Victoria asked Mr Fox to kneel, he did not seem in any position to argue.

Having been rewarded for his services to the law with a gong, Mr Foxs sense of humour did not run out.

Obiter assumes that the two men in brown overalls cleaning windows with a toothbrush were also part of the slightly surreal entertainment and not two solicitors doing Fox Williams version of detention.
