A Reminder of True Quality (23 February 2010)
I purchased this set of DVDs to remind myself of the outstanding quality of comedy produced by the BBC at this time. Sadly, it is now not often the case that we can experience not only good comedy writing but also the top quality acting from all those who took part.

Review Fawlty towers (20 February 2010)
I am very pleased with the DVD's, but they arrived some days later than expected. But the quality and service is great, and i have continued purchasing items from Amazon.

Buy It (25 January 2010)
As something I have always loved watching when repeated on TV I had to buy this when I saw it on offer a while back.

I hadn't seen it for a few years so some episodes had parts that I had forgotten about.

Each episode is brilliantly written and acted.

My only shock came with the inclusion of a scene that I can only assume had been edited out for later repeats on TV during the 1990s and 2000s. The scene in question involves the Major and Basil discussing ethnic minorities and during this a few words that would no longer be considered appropriate are used. Luckily I have enough of a brain to be able to watch it and know that it is not meant in a racist way, also back then it is how alot of people spoke. It is of it's time. So if you are easily offended then be prepared. Though this is the only scene like this in the whole series.

But that aside it has stood up very well over the years. The picture quality of outside scenes can be a little fuzzy, especially a scene in the very first episode when Polly is shown getting into a car, it looks like it's fading away.

A good buy.

Mr Fawlty! (06 January 2010)
This is simply classic comedy! I love every episode and if you like John Cleese you will love this DVD. Good price as well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Fawltless (06 January 2010)
Absolutely brilliant, another must for the classic DVD collection, will go on and on and on for years to come.
