fawlty towers series 1

Episode 1: A Touch of Class

Basil Fawlty is delighted when Lord Melbury checks into his hotel. At last a guest with class, and much better than the rough diamond Sybil is fawning over. However, he pays for his snobbery when Melbury asks him to cash a cheque.

Episode 2: The Builders

Sybil has picked a professional firm to make structural alterations to the hotel. But Basil prefers O'Reilly, the cowboy outfit who can do it on the cheap.

Episode 3: The Wedding

Basil is outraged by an outbreak of promiscuity at his hotel and engages in a losing battle to stop unmarried couples sleeping together. His efforts are hampered by the fact that they are Polly’s friends – and by Manuel’s birthday celebrations.

Episode 4: Hotel Inspectors

Basil is terrified by the news that hotel inspectors are in the area. The awful probability occurs to him that the eccentric guest to whom he has been so appallingly offensive may be one of them. His ranting turns to pathetic fawning, but has he got the right man?

Episode 5: Gourmet Night

It is Gourmet Night at Fawlty Towers, some prestigious guests are booked in at the restaurant, and it seems that Basil’s long-cherished dream of running a high-class establishment will be realised. But the chef lies drunk on the floor.

Episode 6: The Germans

Sybil is in hospital for an ingrowing toenail, but is still nagging Basil by telephone. During a chaotic fire drill, the moose’s head knocks him out, giving him concussion. But he escapes from hospital to deal tactfully with a group of German tourists.
