Town hit by Banksy fever., by Wiseblood on Jun 6, 2012 13:39:05 GMT 1, This piece went up on the seafront wall a few days ago, now someone has covered it in perspex as "Banksy has been here to help the town celebrate the Olympics, its worth hundreds of thousands of pounds so it needs preserving." (Actual quote  Im moving towns.)

Town hit by Banksy fever., by Wiseblood on Jun 6, 2012 14:23:13 GMT 1, I have told the towns Facebook it's not a banksy, the people who were admiring it in the street it's not a banksy and I honestly think none of them believe me. Because they have seen his work in a Sunday paper they are all experts. I'm waiting for the owner of the wall to spend thousands on having it carefully removed to sell.

"Is it a Banksy? I don't think so."
But you guys are right, it's shit - no polishing it...

if it was the Queen / Aladdin Sane one last weekend then actually they wouldn;t have seen a Banksy that day either ;D
am I thick or has no-one actually named the town yet? (maybe to protect it from being stolen - lol  )

Apparently he did a show at the local gallery in April, this piece is on his website too. I personally don't like it, and the perspex sheet isn't screwd on straight.
