The website - www.tecwenwhittock.com - which features a smiling photograph of Whittock, is entitled The Official Website of ‘The Cougher’." It tells how "Tecwen is open to all offers of work and is currently writing a book about his experiences", and features what it describes as "humorous quotes" about the case, including two from the show’s host, Chris Tarrant.
