The manager's faulty-what's wrong with him?

 

[Beach Hut]

Oh my god where can I start:

Mrs Richards I suppose was the best, Gourmet Night was fantastic, I loved the Irish builders - "you men from orely !

Probably the funniest series ever and more imprtantly superb script writing.

 

[NMH]

Another shout (into her hearing aid!) for Mrs Richards, the episode with 'DragonFly' the winning horse. we also got a mention in that one, as she sold her house in Brighton.

So many classic moments though - the Colonel was brilliant; "Germans Fawlty? Let me get my shotgun"
"Vill you please stop talking about ze var!" -
"well you started it - you invaded Poland"

"hand me that hammer"
"Que? You want a ham..mer sandwich?"

"Manuel, let me explain" (jabs Manuel in the eye)

Manuel, behind head of moose; "I learn Eeenglish very goood, I read it in a booook" (while the Colonel takes up conversation with moose)

All of the above = superb!!! Plus:

"Errrr... I'm afraid we're just out of waldorfs..."



And who remembers when Basil had his hands over that Aussie bimbo's Bristols...??!!

 

[pasty]

Basil to Manuel (pointing at 3 butter dishes): "There is too much butter on those trays"
Manuel: No no, Mr Fawlty, Is uno, dos, tres

 

[Eggmundo]

Every time he loses it get's me but the war episode is pure class. The goose step.

 

[bailey]

manuel "no, tis siberian hamster"

 

[Stendahl]

"And now... what can I do for you three gentlemen ? - AAAAAAHHHHHH"

 

[Blackadder]

Germans...probably.

Also liked it when Basil threatened his car when it broke down! "Right, I'm going to give you a damn good thrashing!"
