Superb scripts and brilliantly funny on the page as well - By: Chris Wood, 28 May 2008 
This is wonderful comedy & exploits the situations ruthlessly & to great effect. These scripts took several times longer to write than the average sitcom & it shows. An ideal toilet book too, perfect for long dumps on a summer's evening.
Basil still lives on!! - By: , 01 Mar 2002 
All the scripts from the show that made us laugh & cry out loud. Not as good as the classic television shows but all the wit & humor is there. Shame there were only 12 made!
A masterpiece... - By: , 15 Mar 2001 
Buy this book now! If you don`t I promise you that you`ll regret it for the rest of your life! Even if you have never even seen Fawlty towers then you still have to buy this book! It has had peoplein the street giving me funny looks by the amount of laughter it`s squeezed out of me! Brilliant, well done Fawlty!
Pure Diamond Literature - By: , 12 Oct 2000 
Read the complete works, saw the video's but on hearing the tapes it put a whole new perspective on the comedy. Pure Creative Genius. Well worth it if you want to understand the complete picture surrounding Fawlty Towers
Outrageously funny - By: , 08 Jan 2000 
I bought this book as a gift, but I couldn't help but dip into it myself. Once you immerse yourselfin the escapades of this hotel madhouse, it's impossible to let go. Events cascadein a an impeccably logical & humorously horrific torrent, until poor Basil the hotel owner generally ends up losing his marbles. The characters truly come to lifein a very special way: Sybil, Basil's long-suffering wife, Manual, the waiter from Barcelona who has yet to master the English language, the slightly dotty Major, a guestin the hotel, & other regular players. Single episode appearances from comic geniuses such as the Rat. Brilliant comic writing from Cleese & the pretty Connie Booth - I've ordered my own copy, & the gift copy that no longer quite lies flat on the table has left to fill someone else's heart with laughter.
