Hi hi everyone! So I think this is my absolute favourite episode of FT so far!!! So crazy, so silly, and just so much fun! I also wanted to take a second to say that I’m sorry that these Full Watch Alongs don’t seem to match up properly to watch along to. Fawlty Towers is impossible to find, stream or buy in the US, and so I’ve had to watch weird copies wherever I can find them. Apologies that the speeds and quality seem off. I tried. I’ve also lessened the blur so hopefully they’re easier to sync. Hope you can still enjoy! Reaction highlights tonight on YouTube 9pm EST. 🖤

FAWLTY TOWERS S2E4 "The Kipper and the Corpse" - Full Watch Along

Fawlty Towers - Season 2, Episode 4: "The Kipper and the Corpse" Fawlty Towers is a British television sitcom written by John Cleese and Connie Booth, originally broadcast on BBC Two in 1975 and 1979. Two series of six episodes each were made. The series is set in Fawlty Towers, a dysfunctional fictional hotel in the English seaside town of Torquay in Devon. The plots centre on the tense, rude and put-upon owner Basil Fawlty (Cleese), his bossy wife Sybil (Prunella Scales), the sensible chambermaid Polly (Booth), and the hapless and English-challenged Spanish waiter Manuel (Andrew Sachs). They show their attempts to run the hotel amidst farcical situations and an array of demanding and eccentric guests and tradespeople.

I actually honestly thought the problem was with my end, Fawlty Towers is available to stream in Britain on SKY TV, and I thought my playback speed settings were messed up......it has never once stopped me from enjoying the reactions though...and you're right, this is one crazy, funny episode.

You know what Terry, when Coby started doing watch alongs to these, I subscribed to Britbox thinking these would be on there and I could do the full watch alongs. Because two or three years ago I watched the first two episodes with a free trial. So imagine my surprise when I couldn’t find any.

Yes, it's true - the inspiration behind Fawlty Towers was a hotel that the Monty Python guys all stayed at a few years before, and separately a hotel owner told Cleese that the biggest problem in running a hotel was getting rid of the dead bodies when guests passed away while staying there!
