Brahms' 3rd Racket
Snipped from EW.COM:
From the U.K.'s Daily Mail we learned of the unlikely sight at left: The cast of the classic '70s British comedy Fawlty Towers (from left, Prunella Scales, John Cleese, Connie Booth, and Andrew Sachs) gathered to promote two documentaries airing on the British comedy channel G.O.L.D. starting this weekend (see G.O.L.D.'s clip about the Fawlty reunion event). What makes it a particular surprise is that, as the Mail article reports, series cowriter and costar Booth (she played hotel maid Polly) -- a former Mrs. Cleese -- ''has previously refused to talk about Fawlty Towers and yesterday left as soon as the photos were taken.'' Good times! But the mood figures to be a little more upbeat in the Fawlty Towers: Reopened doc (airing on Sunday in the U.K.), which she did participate in. The second doc, Basil's Best Bits (May 17 on G.O.L.D. in the U.K.), features Cleese revealing his favorite scenes. Can we have these shipped over to this side of the Atlantic, please?

Then again I could see these probably getting packaged up for video release in the US as well. Never count out the potential of milking this for all its worth.
