Fawlty Towers is one of the very best BBC sitcoms, whose timeless humour remains enduringly popular. Laugh along with the misadventures of Basil, Sybil, Polly and the hapless Manuel in these four episodes. In 'A Touch of Class', Basil's dream of attracting a classy clientele come true when Lord Melbury arrives. There's nothing Basil won't do for his Lordship, but titles can be deceiving... 'The Anniversary' finds Basil's plans for a surprise party going horribly wrong when Sybil thinks he's forgotten their 15th wedding anniversary and leaves. Basil is left to clear up the mess. 'The Psychiatrist' sees Sybil's interest piqued by a young 'yobbo' staying at the hotel, while a visiting psychiatrist finds enough material for a conference when he encounters Basil Fawlty. And in 'The Wedding Party', prudish Basil is outraged by the apparent promiscuity going on in the hotel, but it's the guests who end up shocked when they find Basil and Manuel in a compromising position. Starring John Cleese, Prunella Scales, Connie Booth and Andrew Sachs.
