Love Machine issues an urgent appeal today for any information on the whereabouts of duckfaced, duck-soundalike Welsh Warbler Duffy.

Relatives are deeply concerned, A&M Records and the general public possibly less so.

Experts now believe that the downward spiral began in 2009 where she was spotted doing unspeakable things on a bike, manically drinking diet coke and making sounds similar to a fox being mauled - psychologists now fear this was an unheeded cry for help.

She was last seen in public sounding more ducky than ever, with the single Well, Well, Well, which rocketed into the chart at no. 41.

Please, if you have any information at all, please contact us. A nation is literally not on the edge of its seat with fear and worry.

Thank you.
