Fawlty Towers Dinner

Eat in restaurant run by Basil, Sybil and Manuel where the characters serve their guests a hilarious 3 course dinner.

The chef’s drunk, there’s a rat on the loose, the health inspector is on his way and a gnome has just turned up in the restaurant. Basil only manages to make matters worse, Sybil has been hitting the brandy and Manuel is… Well, he’s just Manuel.

Fire drills, Germans, kippers and corpses. With everything building to a typically Fawlty Towers climax.
