DVD commentaries to listen to: part 1

John Cleese on Fawlty Towers - Multi episodes

Cleese is  a mine of information when he watches his and then wife's Connie Booth classic sit-com. The name of Stubbs the good builder in The Builders episode comes from Una Stubbs Father who himself was a builder and gave them information for the episode. Prunella Scales was somewhat apperhesive when ever she had a scene where Sybil ever hit some one and some what pulled her punches. Clesse is full of praise for the various guest stars the show had, one example being Bernard Cribbens in The Hotel Inspector as Cleese salutes his comic timing. A commentary on the one of the great sit-com that is worthy of the programme it accompanies.
