About this show

Everyone loves Fawlty Towers - except the poor, abused guests. Since that memorable evening in the mid 1970s when the hotel opened its doors to the public, it has become cult viewing in 61 countries worldwide. And despite being screened again and again, the programs haven't lost their appeal - Basil and Sybil's insults to each other, Manuel's plaintive "Que?", and "Don't mention the war" from The Germans have been absorbed into everyday speech.

Love this show. John Cleese as Basil, Sybill, Polly and Manuel make this show hilarious. You can relate to the mishaps and mayhem that constantly take place.

What need is there a description? If you are reading this in the year 2220 then I hope the next few words help you. I, my family, my friends and people that I don't like, we all love this show and you should watch it.

This has gotta be one of the funniest shows to be filmed...EVER! Including 95% of the rubbish attempts at comedy these days. Fawlty towers can still make me laugh now.... and these episodes are all 45 years old!! Clasics!
