Cleese dijo que, aunque hubiera podido hacerlo, consideraba que continuar la serie hubiera hecho que ésta perdiera eficacia cómica. Es verosímil que estuviera en lo cierto, aunque uno lamenta no tener más episodios. Pero la serie era tan extraordinaria que uno sigue riéndose prácticamente igual que cuando vio por primera vez cada uno de esos pocos episodios.

The best thing about Fawlty towers ( and other old shows ) is no matter how bad the lead man/ woman is we still like them and are on their side. Today the characters of lead men/women are not so likeable. That's not to say they aren't great actors, they are, but....they lack a certain warmth and empathy - maybe like a lot of people in the public eye these days.
