Freddie and Eustace Potts are remembered by Galahad in Galahad at Blandings and elsewhere because on the Riviera their French chef picked up a dead hedgehog from the road on the way to the market to buy a chicken. He pocketed the money and served up the hedgehog en casserole. Eustace the teetotaler died; Freddie, who had lived mostly on whiskey since childhood, showed no ill effects whatsoever.
