Fawlty Towers

Fawlty Towers was only on television screens for 12 half-hour episodes, but it has stayed in viewer's lives ever since. The Major; "Don't mention the war!;" "He's from Barcelona;" Basil the Rat — everyone has a favorite line, moment, or character. In the first biography of the show, Graham McCann holds up to the light each of the unpredictable elements — the demented brilliance of John Cleese, his creative partnership with Connie Booth — that added up to an immortal sitcom, beloved all over the world, even in Barcelona.
