A/N: It's insanely hard to write interrogations, police interviews, and press conferences without resorting to script format, so bear patience with me. Just as a reminder, the BBC and Granada own most of the characters involved in this story.
"The time is 1:16 pm and William Fuller is being interviewed about the Fawlty Towers Murder," Morrison said. "What was your relationship to Mr. Worthington?"
"Dan was my lover, my best friend. He meant the world to me. I have no idea who would do this to him."
"Mr. Fuller, why did you come to Torquay?," Morrison said.
"We are antiques dealers. We were supposed to appraise the worth of several items from the Havers estate and buy a few items from local antiques stores," Fuller replied.
"Before you came to Torquay, did you receive anything of a suspicious nature?," Morrison said.
"No sir. A few of our customers are impatient, but there was nothing out of the ordinary. We didn't receive any threats," Fuller said.
"Did Mr. Worthington have anybody who he held a grudge against or anyone that he had animosity towards?," Morrison said.
"Dan's father disowned him after he came out, but he died of a heart attack three years ago. I haven't met any of Dan's exes, but I don't think they would have anything to do with this. Dan had very few enemies," Fuller said, wiping away stray tears traveling down his cheeks.
"What were you doing prior to the arrival of Ms. Tennison last night?," Morrison said.
"After dinner, Dan and I came back to Room 13. We fell asleep quickly. I didn't wake up until I heard the window breaking. I thought it was the wind shaking the window, so I rolled onto my side. All of the sudden I heard Dan scream. I looked up and I saw a man dressed all in black holding a steak knife. He dragged Dan out of the bed and stabbed him twice. I jumped out of bed and tried to stop the guy, but he said to me 'Don't say a word or I'll kill you too!' He ran towards the window and climbed down the tree next to the window. I checked Dan to see if he was still breathing, but he wasn't. I couldn't detect a heartbeat..." Dan could not hold back the tears anymore.
"The time is 1:23 pm and I am terminating this interview," Morrison said.
At the same time Morrison was interviewing Fuller, Jane was recording Basil's statements.
"I'll tell you Ms. Tennison, I think that poof Fuller killed Worthington," Basil said with a sneering tone. "I didn't trust either of them the second they appeared at the desk. I should have turned them away. All of this would have never happened if they didn't stay here. It's a good thing you're here, because you can catch the lowlife who did this."
"What were you doing last night before the murder occurred?" Tennison said.
"After Gourmet Night ended around 11, I assisted the staff in cleaning up and then they left. Sybil locked the doors and stowed the cash from the register into the safe. I went to bed around 11:45 because if Sybil gets to the bedroom first, she snores louder than a jet engine, and I can't sleep. I woke up around the time you ran through the halls shouting about a murder," Basil said.
Morrison called a press conference at 6:15 hoping to get on the evening news. Strangely, only 3 other reporters showed up besides the BBC camera crew.
"We are currently examining the evidence left behind at the scene. We have also informed the authorities in the victim's home area We do not have any prime suspects at this point in time. If anyone saw anything suspicious in the vicinity of Fawlty Towers between the hours of midnight and 4 am, call the Torquay Police Deparment at once. Any viable leads will receive a £500 reward." Morrison said.
"Are you receiving any additional help on this difficult case?" the BBC reporter asked.
"DCI Jane Tennison of London Metropolitan is assisting us on this case. She originally came to Torquay on vacation, but she has changed her plans due to recent events. We hope that her work will lead us to a suspect," Morrison said.
