 Excellent July 3, 2004

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 pigeons in the water tank! Before each episode is a small interview with John Cleese, boring once you've heard them so I skip those now, however my real gripe with this is the annoying occasional narration by Andrew Sachs as Manuel, to explain what's going on. It detracts from the CD, but that said, the CD is hilarious and well worth it's money.
 Pure genius. May 11, 2001
Somehow the classics never go out of fashion. This will bring tears through laughter from those both young and old. A comedy which will last generations
