Fawlty Towers - Volume 1: Basil the Rat

Fawlty Towers has become a landmark in comedy history -- and is now available on audio! Volume 1 is presented here - fully dramatized on 2 Audio CDs. The four episodes included in Volume 1 * Communication Problems; * The Hotel Inspectors; * Basil The Rat; * The Builders -- It is impossible to tire of the antics of Basil, Sybil, Polly and the hapless Manuel. Inept and manic English hotel owner and manager, Basil Fawlty, isnt cut out for his job. Hes intolerant, rude and paranoid. All hell frequently breaks loose as Basil tries to run the hotel, constantly under verbal (and sometime physical) attack from his unhelpful wife Sybil, and hindered by the incompetent but easy target, Manuel, their Spanish waiter. -- This audiobook includes extracts from an interview with John Cleese, and stars John Cleese, Prunella Scales, Andrew Sachs and Connie Booth, with linking narration by Andrew Sachs.
