Starring: John Cleese, Connie Booth, Andrew Sachs, Prunella Scales
Genres: Comedy
The Germans - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Basil is being pursued by the doctor, the left antler on the moose's head on the wall is broken. When the head lands on Manuel, the antler is not broken or limp any longer, and when the Major wraps the head on the snout, the antler breaks and goes limp again.
The Builders - S1-E2
Deliberate mistake: When Basil is arguing with Polly and eventually decides to call O'Reilly, he trips over the gnome. However when we see Basil come out from behind the desk, he takes the gnome out of a side gap in the desk, perfectly out of reach of Basil tripping over it. (00:14:30)
The Wedding Party (a.k.a. Sex) - S1-E3
Basil: Did you ever see that film, "How To Murder Your Wife"?
Major Gowen: How To Murder Your Wife"?
Basil: Yes, awfully good. I saw it six times.
Basil the Rat (a.k.a. Rats) - S2-E6
Trivia: Melody Lang, who plays Mrs. Taylor in this episode, is Andrew Sachs' wife.
Question: When Polly is laying in bed disguised as Mrs Fawlty, was that really Prunella scales playing that part? I was wondering as Polly as a more thinner face than Sybil and could never have really got away with it.
Chosen answer: Indeed it is Polly. She has stuffings in her mouth to pretend she is swollen.
