Will's Book Nook: Fawlty Towers Scribblings

 

I have been listening to the audio recording of Fawlty Towers put out by BBC Records. You may be familiar BBC sitcom from the 1970s, but these recording also feature star and creator, John Cleese, talking about the creation of the series, and episode highlights. Cleese played Basil Fawlty, owner of a hotel, who has a very high opinion of himself and a very short fuse. In fact, my favorite part is when Cleese finds some poor employee to yell at. For example, when Manuel, whose English is not the best, misinterprets an order from Basil, which leads to an explosion of colorful language by Basil. I give it 6 out of 5 scribbles!
