On Screen Appearances

The Wrong Trousers

he's role is the main antagonist. In his debut, he rented Gromit's room out at Wallace's house. He then basically stole Gromit's room and his life, thus, Gromit left. But Feathers had a idea: a jewel heist. He reconstructed the Techno Trousers so it responds to a remote control. After getting the jewel from the museum, he revealed to Wallace that he was the penguin renter, and proceeded to trap Wallace inside a wardrobe. After Gromit got to the scene, Feathers pulled out a pistol and told Gromit to get into the wardrobe. Soon after, Feathers attempted to make an escape on one of Wallace's model trains, but Gromit switched the points, causing Feathers to go the wrong way. After a chase, Feathers and Gromit both crashed resulting in Feather's capture. He was then captured and handed to the zoo.

ReBoot

Throughout the ReBoot cgi series there is the occasional popup of a background character that seems impossibly to be the same penguin.

A Close Shave

When Gromit was sent to jail, on the cell wall, it said "Feathers was 'ere". Also in the cell, Gromit was reading a book which on the spine read, "A Penguin Classic" with a picture of Feathers without the glove. During the chase scene, when Gromit plunges down the cliff, a rock that resembles Feathers can be seen.
