Timeless comic genius from John Cleese, Connie Booth and company. Basil is captivated by a French woman while stamping out indecency in his establishment.

Comedy classic. Basil is terrified when he hears some hotel inspectors are in town, which leads him to fawn over bemused guests.

It's 'the one where Basil gives his car a good thrashing with a branch'. Basil's new chef tries to turn Fawlty Towers into a gourmet's paradise.
