1. Eva Prawn....LOL.
On a side note, I was lucky enough to get the Monty Python Flying Circus Megaset for Christmas!

Wooohoo!

2. You get the 16-tonne one?
The one with the two extra discs with the German episodes, "Live at the Hollywood Bowl" and the fairly useless "Parrot Sketch Not Included"? :bounce:

6. Also in 'Hollywood Bowl'
Watch for Palin having to stop himself from breaking up.

It has some other "surprise" deviations from the teevee series. The most notorious caused a woman in the audience to literally scream. You'll know it when you hear it. :7

Enjoy. :toast:

4. "Would you stop talking about the war!"
"Me? You started it!"
"We did not start it!"
"Yes you did! You invaded Poland!"

I want the entire Fawty Towers series on DVD.

5. It's only two discs
Twelve episodes.

Probably could be had for around $25.

7. Yeah, the local PBS station airs marathons all the time
I was really bummed when I learned that there were only a dozen eps.

8. It seems like more
I guess that's because you get about eight brazillion laughs from each one.

9. I thought that Fawlty Towers was frequently tedious...
...but "The Germans" is hilarious all the way through.
