I was really enjoying reading this book and thinking how good it was when I came accross the bit that talks about Autism, I was shocked and disgusted to read they were basically blaming the parents for causing their childs Autism. This is an outdated and depressing view. I hope the revised edition has changed this.

This has to be one of the best books ever written - much much better than the hords of low quality books out there that proclaim self help and the like. This one drives straight to the heart, and is very readable. I challenge anyone to read the first chapter and not feel more positive about themselves and life!

My problem with this book is you get the lowdown on intergroup politics and business wranglings, production technicalities etc but very little colourful anecdotal material about inspiration behind sketches and the like. Whole series can be covered with little more than a passing mention of any of the material involved! Very frustrating.

This CD has four episodes on it, in 'Communications' Mrs Richards deaf old bat, causes Basil great money problems when she loses cash elsewhere but he wins on the horses and the Major (bless him) helps add to the chaotic misunderstanding. 'The Hotel Inspectors' has Basil fawning over the wrong person believing Bernard Cribbins, spoon salesman to be one of the hotel inspectors. In 'The Builders' Basil causes his usual troubles when he decides to use cheap, cheerful, useless O'Reilly in favour of the proper builder Sybil wanted. The outcome is as expected, bodged! 'Basil the Rat' sees Manuel's pet 'siberian hamster' cause chaos when the public health inspector calls with poisoned veal mixed with the untainted veal. Nowhere but Fawlty Towers could have two dead ... Read More:

This is wonderful comedy and exploits the situations ruthlessly and to great effect. These scripts took several times longer to write than the average sitcom and it shows. An ideal toilet book too, perfect for long dumps on a summer's evening.

I can live with the cliché's, I can live with the patronising ex pat, 'ollywood cockernee type characterisation's, I can even forgive John Byrne (once a legend in this business), but what I cannot forgive is that this is very poor and worst of all NOT FUNNY! It is simply short of the mark and way off target and desperately tries to capture a long dead zeitgeist that probably only ever existed in the minds of Americans watching "The Avengers" re-runs on TV as kids and in the long since dried up comedy brain of John Cleese who clearly spends way to much time in La La Land and out of England to recognise this for the poor excuse of a parody that it fails to be...shame

join the hotel in the second volume of Fawlty Towers. listen to Andrew Sachs reading the funny adventures that happen in the hotel in Devon.
it has been taken from the television show and been put into four full episodes: Gourmet Night, The Germans, Wordorf Salad and The kipper and The corpse.
I highly recommend that you purchase this audio cassette and find a cassette player!

So, there seem to be two books where these reviews appear.

One is for the screenplay (from where I am writing this review now and for which the 3* rating applies)

One is the original 1979 book with all the other Pythonic extras referred to in the reviews below.

Moral: Make sure you buy the one you want. You are, after all, all individuals.

For the screenplay, it really is a transcript of the movie. With stress in the sentences underlined and everything. It is probably more fun to watch the movie than read the script - though if you have seen the film, then the script will bring a smile to your face as it'll remind you of the scenes in what is one of the funniest films ever made*. But really, though the writing ... Read More:
