Fawlty Towers: The Story Of Britain's Favourite Sitcom
Fawlty Towers was only on our screens for 12 half-hour episodes, but it has stayed in our lives ever since. The Major; 'Don't mention the war!'; 'He's from Barcelona'; Basil the Rat - everyone has a favourite line, moment or character.
In this, 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 Prunella Scales - that added up to an immortal sitcom, beloved all over the world, even in Barcelona.
