Loonquawl - Mrs Enid Kapelsen

Mrs Enid Kapelsen

An old woman from Boston who rediscovers purpose in life by seeing Arthur and Fenchurch flying (and performing "other activities") outside the aeroplane within which she is flying to Heathrow. Witnessing this, she became enlightened, and realized that everything she had ever been taught was varyingly incorrect. She annoys the flight attendants by continually pressing her call button for reasons such as "the child in front was making milk come out of his nose." Later she ends up seated next to Arthur and Fenchurch on another aeroplane en route from Los Angeles to London (though in the original radio series, she flies with Arthur and Fenchurch on a flight from London to Los Angeles).

Appears in:

  • the novel So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

She was played by Margaret Robertson in fit the twenty-first of the radio series during the Quandary Phase.
