Summary Note |
The jewel in the BBC comedy crown and the perfect vehicle for John Cleese's comic brilliance - everyone loves Fawlty Towers except the poor, abused guests. The world owes a great debt to an anonymous Torquay hotelier whose rudeness and incompetence inspired one of the most celebrated TV series of all time. Cult viewing in over 60 countries, this BAFTA-winning series is now available in a digitally-remastered collection which also includes brand new John Cleese commentaries on all 12 episodes. |
