Phil's Top 14 Comedy Series - Part Thirteen

2. Fawlty Towers

It's always difficult to choose between this and my first place choice over which is the better one but I've made the decision.

The runner-up is Fawlty Towers, the short-lived but joke-crammed fourteen-episode series set in a Torquay hotel with its permanent residents, staff and changing guests that lead to a whole array of storylines and problems to be tackled by the angry Basil, his air-headed wife and difficult-to-understand waiter Manuel.

Written to perfection by John "Monty Python" Cleese and Connie Booth this is a sitcom to watch again and again and it never gets old. Especially 'Communication Problems'.

Altogether now... "What did you expect to see out of a Torquay Hotel bedroom window..."
