Flowery Twats T Shirt

Product Information

Eye Scream: Manuel suffers a nasty looking poke when Basil gets especially fed up in "The Kipper and the Corpse." The director then says on the commentary that he wishes he'd put in some kind of squishy sound effect. The crass, loud, demanding American in "The Waldorf Salad", although in a twist, he's presented as being almost entirely in the right, and ends up the hero of the story. With no regard to Basil's blood pressure, a guest dies at the hotel and Basil and the staff are left with the unpleasant task of removing the body discreetly while the doctor staying at the hotel, Dr. Price, waits for his sausages. Also, Polly and Manuel feed an elderly woman's pampered pet dog some extra spicy sausages after it bites them both. Ass Shove: The implication of Basil's threat to O'Reilly that he will "insert a large garden gnome in you" if O'Reilly doesn't fix a wall.

Basil the Rat" features a surprise visit from the health inspector; Basil initially does not recognise him and thinks he is sniffing the raw meat in the fridge because he is a scavenger. In 1976 and 1980, Fawlty Towers won the British Academy Television Award for Best Scripted Comedy. In 1980, Cleese received the British Academy Television Award for Best Entertainment Performance, and, in a 2001 poll conducted by Channel 4, Basil Fawlty was ranked second on their list of the 100 Greatest TV Characters. [4] The popularity of Fawlty Towers has endured, and it is often re-broadcast. [2] The BBC profile for the series states that "the British sitcom by which all other British sitcoms must be judged, Fawlty Towers withstands multiple viewings, is eminently quotable (' don't mention the war') and stands up to this day as a jewel in the BBC's comedy crown." [5] Was fairly recently rewatching all eps in my boxset and reading up a bit more on FT and somewhere I heard or read that The Anniversary is Cleese's 2nd favourite ep after Basil The Rat because it has his recent wife's greatest input into both the writing and the acting. I think it's a much more coherent ep than the final ep BTR which was really a bit of a wild mess if you critically analyse it, although a very funny one. The Anniversary was the ep most enhanced in my own estimation. Basil: (Frantically) Nothing's got into me, I'm just saying take it easy. All of us, just take it easy. (With increasing mania) Can't I say take it easy without starting a panic?It has long been rumoured that a 13th episode of the series was written and filmed, but never progressed further than a rough cut. [44] Lars Holger Holm, author of the book Fawlty Towers: A Worshipper's Companion, has made detailed claims about the episode's content, but he provides no concrete evidence of its existence. [45] David Brent regards himself as a great man: a comedian, singer-songwriter, dancer, philanthropist, business leader and motivational speaker. (Don’t forget he does most of his own training in-house, too.) But Brent can’t reconcile these talents with his grey reality: a medium-sized paper merchants in Slough. Last-Second Word Swap: A concussed Basil tries it in "The Germans", but only makes it worse: "Now, would you like to eat first or would you like a drink before the warrrr...ning ... that trespassers will be tied up with piano wire?" The "Fawlty Towers" sign. At first, the letters are just skewed; later they're rearranged into humorous anagrams (eg. "Farty Towels", "Flowery Twats", "Fatty Owls"). In one episode, the paper boy is seen rearranging them.

In "Waldorf Salad", Terry tells Basil that he cannot stay late because he has his karate class; but Polly gives him away by mentioning Terry's Finnish girlfriend. Terry briefly tries to mime karate to Polly, but Basil realises what Terry is up to. In a list of the 100 Greatest British Television Programmes drawn up by the British Film Institute in 2000, voted for by industry professionals, Fawlty Towers was placed first. It was also voted fifth in the " Britain's Best Sitcom" poll in 2004, [55] and second only to Frasier in The Ultimate Sitcom poll of comedy writers in January 2006. Basil Fawlty came top of the Britain's Funniest Comedy Character poll, held by Five on 14 May 2006. In 1997, " The Germans" was ranked No. 12 on TV Guide's 100 Greatest Episodes of All Time. [56] Named in Empire magazine's 2016 list of the greatest TV shows of all time, the entry states, Basil is confounded by a drawing of Polly's that he believes to depict a trash heap over a smart collar and tie. Polly shrugs innocently and hangs it up at reception. A few minutes later, Manuel walks in, notices the sketch, and says, "Oh, is Meester Fawlty!"

The Hotel Inspectors": Basil hears that three Hotel Inspectors are in town, and immediately begins fawning over a guest with an officious manner and a vast professional experience of hotels. He then finds out that his target sells spoons. When another guest mentions he has two colleagues, Basil switches to fawning over him and even resorts to attempting bribery for a favourable report after he witnesses Basil's fight with the first guest. This one is in town for the regatta, though, at which Basil brightens up considerably, and disappears. He appears minutes later to thoroughly humiliate the first guest (who's leaving in disgust), in full view of the real inspectors who have just arrived. a b Goddard, Peter.
