Damn! And I'd been led to believe the Rat and Mouse was a dead cert for that particular award. According to the press release, Geberit's Balena Shower Toilet - an ever so slightly frightening combination of toilet, power-bidet and hot-air arse-dryer, is "at the forefront of a new trend... the solution for the bathroom of today and tomorrow". It pulsates, oscillates, wall-hangs, and features a four-person memory, so it'll catch, pitch and blow you just the way you like it. It's available from West One Bathrooms in Battersea, and Empress Building Centre in Finchley, but although you can take the design out of Germany, I'm not sure you can take the particularly German fixation out of its design.
