All the actors and actresses that have died in the comedy sitcom Fawlty towers till this date,May thier soul rest in perfect peace.🙏 ✌️💚🧡
Love these then and now/ things.
Hahaha..when she mentions Ballard Berkeley in Bergerac ( a police TV series based in Jersey) She shows the CD box for Cyrano de Bergerac.....classic eh what 🤣
The word is "broadcast" NOT "broadcasted".
She’s a moron
There American. You can’t expect them to speak proper English
@@sonofednawelthorpe8609 You just shot yourself in the foot with your own grammar.🤦

@@Africa1000She, given that it's obviously a female and one person.
A little niggle from me too: the "Avengers" program you're referring to for Christine Shaw isn't a Marvel Comics production but a BBC adventure/spy/sometimes-comic series. At the time that Shaw appeared there, it starred Patrick MacNee and Honor Blackman. Later on, the series would gain more fame when Diana Rigg (Lady Olenna from "Game of Thrones") replaced Blackman as MacNee's partner. The series was very different in concept, tone, and storylines from the Marvel Comics "Avengers".
I was in deep lust over Diana Rigg. nothing like that vinyl jumpsuit she would sport.....yummmmmmmm
😂 yes I thought it was a bit odd
..
Not to mention the posters for the French 'Cyrano de Bergerac' film with Gerard Depardieu and the Hammer 'Hound of the Baskervilles' with Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee! An example of Fawlty Memories.
Thank you 😊
loved the 'hearing aid' epi with Joan sanderson
There were only 12 episodes but I have all on a boxed Dvd set
There was also always that daft urban legend about a 'lost' thirteenth episode. There's no proof whatsoever and nobody involved in the show has said much or anything about it.
The DVD also has an Easter egg where it shows you the aftermath of the fire that destroyed the Wooburn Grange Country Club (used for the exterior shots) in 1991. The whole area was redeveloped for housing and there's now no trace of it.
Anything with Joan Sanderson in was usually good..if only that gifted actress was still around......
Played the ultimate school teacher.
I think you might have your “ Bergeracs” confused
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's the greatest TV show ever produced!.... British, American, whatever, it's the best! Each episode is perfect!
Ballard Berkeley actually died in 1988.
Yep, the line about cancer being a bully was actually from Brian Hall (Terry the chef). Must just have got that part of the video mixed up. Hall died on 17th September 1997.
I can't find Berkeley's cause of death anywhere, but he was 84 after all.
I was thinking that too, he died January 19 1988, which happened to be my mother’s 30th birthday, so I can remember being at a theme park with relatives that day.
Don Cleese ?
As usual, no mention of all there stage work.
Not an episode of Canal Journeys..its an edition its factual..Episode is something with a storyline and characters
I'm also pretty sure I heard that 2014 was just when Scales made her diagnosis public, and that she'd actually been a bit unwell for longer than that.
She was doing theatre work on stage and there are rumours she was struggling with her lines and people noticed a change in her as far back as 1999. But I can't confirm that.
6:28 I think they've got the wrong "Bergerac" there, somehow!
Giles, pronounced Jiles,
Sounds like John Clease’s recent work is out of desperation - straight to video titles.
Some wrong information which is the beauty of free speech and a democracy that some country's would love right now, unfortunately a lot of people will take it as truthful information and it's not, loved the brian hall photo of the brian hall who played for Liverpool my club In his liverpool shirt In a team photo, I'm not taking the piss but wrong information can be dangerous
I see Liverpool footballer Brian Hall's picture featured at one point.
Well spotted. Yes Brian Hall great Liverpool player . Are these errors intentional or is this plain stupidity
Pernella scales was also in Hobson choice
Hold the Sunset was a flop
Still working. Still divorcing
Whereas I believe Connie Booth is 100% retired these days. She was certainly working as a psychotherapist at the turn of the millennium and if she'd worked through to a normal retirement age (65-ish) she would have retired circa 2006.
She's now 82.
Now, how superspicial is this rgen, to noz even mention Sachs´s German origin? Not understandable... Big -!
GBnews isn’t right wing. If you actually watch it you’ll see it’s pretty balanced. Showing views from all sides.
The way you need to look at it is…. GB news is not virtual signalling “woke”, unlike the BBC, Channel 4 and to a lesser degree ITN and Channel 5
🙄😳Not right wing? 😂🤣😂🤣
@@violentbuddhist if you actually watch it.
😂😂😂😂 yea, right you are.
Trouble is imbeciles think anything that isn't cultural Marxism is 'far right'.
Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations --WOR and WLVI.
😂🙄😂🙄😂
@@Bjowolf2 It is all true what I wrote.
@@fnoce5948 Ha, some people have a very poor taste indeed.
Fortunately I have never heard of those TV channels 🙄
@@fnoce5948Just the idea of comparing a very childish and silly comedy show like BH to
a briliantly written first class show like FT is almost criminal 😂
@@Bjowolf2 Benny Hill had natural comedic talent as he came from a showbiz family.
PLEASE don't try to revive the series - it will never be as good as the original and will be a certain disappointment.
2:18..right wing news .. G.B.N.
ha..ha...you must be joking.
Fawlty towers was as funny as root canal surgery without anesthesia
Ha, you're in a minority of one.
@@markfarnon6742 whatever you say 😂😂😂
@@TringmotionCoUk well, I think it's great but I respect your opinion of it being terrible 😁
Age?
@@coreyharding1959 as old as my tongue and a little bit older than my teeth.
Fawlty towers has aged like milk, of course
"right wing news channel", I notice that the other blatantly far left channels (Sky news, Guardian, CNN etc.) aren't labelled left wing... curious that isn't it?
