In the style of Fawlty Towers...This is NOT an excerpt, there's no need to visit the source URL, FWIW.

Very well done, I could picture the scene in my mind as if I were watching.

I thought the main character in the first season of The White Lotus was basically a gay version of Basil Fawlty.

Brilliant. I was very thankful to own a boxed set of Fawlty Towers when I lived in N.Z. and Tonga without TV.

The Major would have more to say about it. After all,he wasn't shy about referring to Asian Indians and West Indians.

The BBC no longer shows that scene when they air Fawlty Towers.

Yup,ditto. My set even as the Major’s views on Germans...Asian Indians and West Indians.

Yup,I knew that. But my box set has it! That scene wasn’t meant to be racist...it was just meant to show,once again,how Biden-like he had become at that point in his life.

Very clever. Imagining Cleese going on in this way, well beyond the point of polite propriety...it’s funny!

The other one was “The Builders” that made fun of the Irish.

They’ve censored that one too? Yikes!

I like a woman with spirit!
Oh,do you!

That series was flawless in every way. Every regular...and every guest star...was perfect. Perfectly written...perfectly directed...perfectly acted.
