Fawlty Towers has a new chef and Basil thinks it's a perfect opportunity to invite a higher class of guest for some fine dining.
This is another episode where Basil's attempt at social climbing ends in complete disaster. You know this will be the case from the off, but as usual the intricately plotted series of disasters are all hilarious.
Basil Fawlty going into a situation where he wants everything to go perfect is a funny enough concept in itself, but watching him react and deal with everything that goes wrong is a brilliant.
My favourite parts are how he deals with an unruly child and when he has to introduce the guests to each other. The car breakdown is good but it's not my favourite part of the episode let alone the series as it is often regarded.
John Cleese is brilliant as always and is well supported by the other cast members, particularly Andrew Sachs and Connie Booth.
