No toilets on Dreamliner transatlantic ?

One of my colleagues mentioned to me today that his daughter was recently a passenger on a 787 from MAN to (somewhere in the Caribbean) that departed without any functioning toilets - the intention apparently being that the problem could be resolved en-route.

The flight allegedly continued for 3h before returning to MAN (another 3h!) once it was decided that the toilets could not be made serviceable. Apparently the aircraft was less than spotless on its return to MAN - if you get my drift.

Is this story remotely likely to be true ? - even allowing for poetic licence ?
