This will put the cat among the pidgeons
A LAVATORY built for the Queen is getting a £4,000 makeover – even though it has never had a royal flush in 54 years.
The loo was installed at Blackpool Opera House before the Queen's last visit in 1955. But it was never used and has been kept locked ever since.
Now, as the theatre prepares to host this year's Royal Variety Show in December, builders are busily refurbishing the loo, installing a new sink, mirror, doors and lights – and a brand new WC for the sovereign.
