Synopsis
In The Bath: Conquering the Channel in a Piece of Plumbing is a celebration of the epic absurd, an attempt to explain just how out of hand things can become from a very simple starting point. The book follows the author's death-defying 200-mile journey in his antique Thomas Crapper bath - not just across the Channel, but around Kent - right up to the tremendous reception and huge media attention which awaited him under Tower Bridge. Tim met the Queen, and his bath now resides in the National Maritime Museum of Great Britain.

Review
"In the Bath' theatre show reviews - 'A must see." (The Independent)
"Inspired lunacy...superb" (The List)
"Go and see this show now before he swims to Antigua or something." (The Scotsman (Critic's Choice))
"Quintessential English Loon returns to the fringe with a show devised whilst soaking in the bath...it's a sell-out here and the audience barely stops laughing as FitzHigham narrates jokes at an intense pace, with excited gesticulating and unlikely visual aids" (Metro (Critics Choice))
"Take a delightfully daft idea & add a delightfully posh performer and what do you have? A delightfully nice hour" (Evening Standard (Critics Choice))
