Here's a link to all their episodes. http://stage6.divx.com/Fawlty-Towers/videos/ --------------------  I Search for the Sjogren's Foundation,Who will you search for?

Yeah. That Frank Spencer episode has to be one of the all time classics. He got into some awful scrapes, but he really was very clever especially as he did all his own stunts.

To my mind allo allo was one of the finest sitcoms ever.
The scene where Herr Flick has a flat tyre and Helga is pumping it back up using a stirrup pump is hilarious. She's pumping and he's saying faster faster. The connotations are obvious.

All of the above are classically great and have been totally wnjoyed many times.... but I have to add three of the greatest British comedians ever, all different, all great, were
Marty Feldman, Dave Allen and Benny Hill

QUOTE and Benny Hill Wish people would stop reminding us of this guy.  My favourite would be Jasper Carrot. Least favourtie would most definitely be Ricky Gervais. Smarmy talentless g*t. This post has been edited by KingOfIdiocy: Jul 29 2008, 08:11 AM |

QUOTE (KingOfIdiocy @ Jul 29 2008, 11:10 PM) Wish people would stop reminding us of this guy. King - curious to know why???? Not one of your favourites?? I admit he wasn't everybodys' 'cup of tea', but he was a very versatile, if eccentric, comedian.... for sheer style and immaculate timing, Dave Allen 'takes the cake' - and even religioso/politico total incorrectness was superb!
