Sybil: I can't believe this!
Basil: I don't either, maybe it's a dream. [Pounds his head on the desk several times. Sit's up, looks around.] Nope, it's not a dream, we're stuck with it.

That part right there is absolute fucking gold.

 

[Varitek]

damn it i'm not tired. guess i'll watch the germans

thanks guys for getting me to dl fawlty

 

[Axver]

i think either i'm paying better attention to this episode or it's the funniest one yet

It's widely considered one of the best. Most people rank it just behind The Germans. For years, Gourmet Night was my favourite, though Communication Problems has been for about a year or two now.

 

[coolian2]

That is one of my all-time favourite Manuel moments.

Though my favourite is from Communication Problems when Basil says "I could be having this conversation for the rest of my life. Please try to understand before one of us dies!"

Indeed.

My current ranking is

1. Communication Problems
2. Gourmet Night
3. The Germans

They all switch around often.

Sybil: It's Mrs. Richards.
Basil: A fatal accident?

[coolian2]

It's perfectly Sybil, simple's not well!

 

[coolian2]

You might wake the neighbourhood up during this episode

 

[Varitek]

omg the major

 

[coolian2]

Basil: [yelling at his car] Start! Start, you vicious bastard! Oh my god! I'm warning you! If you don't start, I'll count to three. 1, 2, 3. Right! That's it, you disgrace to the roads! I've laid it on the line to you time and time again! I'm going to give you a damn good thrashing! [Leaves for a few seconds to return with a rather pathetic branch and proceeds to repeatedly hit the the car]

 

[coolian2]

omg the major

That whole scene makes me cringe

 

[Varitek]

damn, lightening.

what did fawlty say after "forgive and forget" i can't tell

lol what about german women

 

[bono_man2002]

I just brought the fawlty boxset last weekend.

Have only watched the first episode so far, but

 

[Varitek]

haha the moose phone call

 

[coolian2]

I think he says something like "God knows, the bastards"

 

[Axver]

well i'm watching the germans. fawlty's a jerk. his wife has weird bedclothes.

so the best 3 eps are all in a row?

Honestly, at the start of The Germans, I think Sybil's the more difficult one. They're both prats, really.

And huh, I'd never noticed those three are in a row.

 

[Varitek]

omg the major and the moose

 

[bono_man2002]

Tis awful quite in here tonight.

Me being the awful.

 

[Axver]

Basil: [yelling at his car] Start! Start, you vicious bastard! Oh my god! I'm warning you! If you don't start, I'll count to three. 1, 2, 3. Right! That's it, you disgrace to the roads!

[Leaves for a few seconds to return with a rather pathetic branch and proceeds to repeatedly hit the the car]

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

BEST. SCENE. EVER.

 

[Varitek]

omg. i am dying. that was the best thing ever. overall the last one was more clever tho

 

[Axver]

omg the major and the moose

"That's a mighty fine moose you've got there, Fawlty!"

 

[coolian2]

I know what we need

Torquay Superthread

 

[Varitek]

awww poor moose

 

[coolian2]

"That's a mighty fine moose you've got there, Fawlty!"

"Japanese, is it?"

 

[bono_man2002]

[Varitek]

damn lightning show. enough that i'm opening my curtain to see

 

[Varitek]

fawlty freaking out isn't that funny here

 

[Axver]

Indeed.

My current ranking is

1. Communication Problems
2. Gourmet Night
3. The Germans

They all switch around often.

In an attempt to rank all of them:

1. Communication Problems
2. Gourmet Night
3. The Germans
4. Waldorf Salad
5. The Hotel Inspectors
6. Basil The Rat
7. The Builders
8. The Kipper And The Corpse
9. A Touch Of Class
10. The Psychiatrists
11. The Wedding Party
50. The Anniversary

I think the only one I'd say for sure, though, is #50. #1-3 swap amongst themselves, #4-5 too, then the rest I'm really not confident about at all, except I'd generally say #6-8 are on a slightly higher level to #10-11.

 

[Varitek]

a real fire? that's a little too obvious. i don't like this ep as much
