In a word, no...

Fawlty Towers =

 

[Virgos Magician]

the german episode. the best one ever.

 

[Kev the Ape]

The germans is funny but the best episode has to be Communication problems. Is this a peice of your brain.

The one where Basil and Sybil have a falling out, and she storms off, and all their friends are coming round. Polly then agrees to dress up as sybil and pretend to be ill.

Ok inmo, but weaker than all the rest

 

[bigc]

yeah...strange...thats the one id choose as the weakest link..

i think it was the last episode anyway

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

"You CAN see the sea. It's over there between the LAND and the SKY."

Marvellous scenes, quite literally.

The one with the Hotel Inspector is pure genius.

Allegedly those scripts were re-written several times to satisfy Cleese and Booths attention to detail.

Good script writing always makes for lasting comedy - Black Adder and Porridge spring to mind.
