Old School Lane Casual Chats: Fawlty Towers

In this episode of Casual Chats, Patricia and Arun Mehta from The Arun Mehta Show discuss about the 1975 BBC sitcom Fawlty Towers starring John Cleese, Prunella Scales, Connie Booth, and Andrew Sachs. The plot is about a disgruntled hotel owner named Basil Fawlty, his wife Sybil, the waitress and assistant Polly Sherman, and the Spanish waiter and bellboy Manuel who work at a run down hotel named Faulty Towers and have to content with a lot of crazy situations from health inspectors to Germans to Americans.  Fawlty Towers has been considered to be one of the greatest British sitcoms ever made and the inspiration for many other sitcoms from Father Ted, Cheers, and Third Rock from the Sun. Very similar to Father Ted, this is the first time that Patricia is watching a show that Arun is very familiar with. How well does Fawlty Towers hold up? Listen and find out.
