Characters in the 6 player game:
Cilla Queen – Obsessive Fan
Dressed in leathers and ready to rock, Cilla is just crazy about her favourite band.
Ted Long – Drummer.
Wild and hairy, Ted has a passion for drumming and always has his sticks with him to tap out a beat – on anything!
Ivan Titall – Freddy’s manager.
A colour-blind flamboyant dresser with unusual tastes and a propensity to wear bright colours, Ivan is also often seen in socks and sandals.
Ray Diogaga – Guitarist
In leather trousers and flamboyant open shirt, Ray is a long haired wonder on the guitar.
Daisy Littlething – Backing Vocalist
In a provocative little black number Daisy has a fabulous voice and the looks to go with it.
Sally Jay – Freddy’s ex-girlfriend.
Stylishly dressed in her own “rock chick” apparel, Sally is still one of the band’s “inner circle”.
Additional characters in the 8 player game:
Fatima Bottem – The band’s pyrotechnic’s expert
Dressed in black and with pockets of tools, wires and other equipment, Fatima is a bit of fire starter and never without some matches.
Seamus Gowon – Head of Wonvision Media.
Dressed in a costume from one of the music videos as a promotional stunt Seamus would look distinctly strange anywhere else.
Additional characters in the 10 player game:
Lily O’Valley – Personal assistant to Freddy Neptune.
Rushed off her feet pandering to the star, Lily dresses rapidly and her hair is rarely done.
Guy Sickle – Freddy’s personal trainer.

April Lady – Driver
Used to hauling the band and their gear from place to place, April dresses comfortably in a band T-shirt and cap.

Fantastic game as everyone knew the characters! Jane Irvine

I’ve hosted or attended about thirty murder mysteries and this company have been my favourite. Lots of cheesy puns and innuendo to keep it fun (maybe the wine helps too). But this one was a disappointment. I’d chosen it for a group of friends who never been to a murder mystery before and I don’t think any will want to again. It was too brief – they’d all got into character really well & just as it was warming up it ended. The rounds needed to be longer or more rounds. Lots of comments like oh is that it? Catherine Salt

Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so very much for all your help and support with “Another One Bites the Dust”. As you know, I purchased the game to run for my son’s 18th birthday on Monday 6th June and it was a complete, resounding, marvellous success!! We did manage to have eight players in the end despite major fallout along the way, and the whole evening was first class in every respect. The young people entered into the spirit with gusto (and alcohol!) and the mystery was solved by four of them! Various comments on Facebook the following day included “Awesome – never been to anything like it before and it was amazing”, and “the best 18th birthday party ever”. I have attached some pictures which I hope you will enjoy! So, once again, thank you so very much – we are now just trying to think up an excuse to host another one – we like the sound of Holdit City – we will definitely be back!

Just to say a huge thanks for Another one bites the dust, we ran the murder mystery last saturday and it was the funniest night ever, everyone enjoyed it and the costumes and play acting was so so funny, would highly recommend this game.

This was the first script I have purchased from Red Herring and I was not disappointed. The instructions were easy to follow and the action flowed very well. The characters were absolutely great! Everyone loved getting out their “rock” gear from the back of the closet and smearing on black eyeliner. Our guitarist even brought a fake guitar from Rock Band! We also had a blast performing our roles, including ad libbing some hilarious side plots. The characters were very unique and fun to act. Of course, we played a lot of Queen music throughout the night and feasted on the Hotel Saveloy’s buffet. Thanks for a great script!
