What did Basil Fawlty fail to avoid mentioning? Why did Sybil keep snagging her cardies? Where was Polly on the night of the Great Wedding Anniversary disaster? This book presents the scripts for the show's classic episodes.

Reviews

Following in the footsteps of publications of the scripts of the Goon Show and Monty Python , the writers of the British TV comedy Fawlty Towers are publishing the complete scripts to all 12 episodes of the series. First shown in Britain in 1975 and 1976, the short-lived series about the slapstick mismanagement of a small British hotel has become a cult classic which has been rerun often on American television. With no additional commentary and only 15 illustrations, the scripts stand alone and will appeal to hard-core fans of the series.-- Marcia L. Perry, Berkshire Athenaeum, Pittsfield, Mass.
