#fawltytowers

Random visit to watch #fawltytowers yesterday. Ultra cheap ticket, which was then upgraded to a rather expensive one when I arrived! Very enjoyable farce, nostalgic love letter to the original, very well performed by an excellent cast who captured all the original mannerisms perfectly! #westendtheatre

Fun fact about Fawlty Towers.

Back when I was a wee lad... maybe 16-year-old, I went on a language exchange to Vancouver, BC.

(Reminder: French is my mother tongue. English is a second language for me.)

My exchange family was fond of watching Fawlty Towers. The very first scene I saw was the one between Basil and that kid arguing about how the soup tastes like puke. The word "puke" was not in my vocabulary, and the accent was also a bit of a hurdle for me.

Since that time, both problems have been fixed.

#FawltyTowers fav to least fav:

The Kipper And The Corpse
Communication Problems
Gourmet Night
The Anniversary
The Germans
Basil The Rat
Waldorf Salad
The Psychiatrist
A Touch Of Class
The Hotel Inspectors
The Builders
The Wedding Party

Never had a favourite series, mainly because I never could remember which episode came from which series, but on recent re-watch I found Series 2 to be the superior run.
