Basil Fawlty, as created and performed by John Cleese, is the rudest, most boorish, most hilariously obnoxious man on the face of the planet. What a natural for a TV sitcom! His screen wife, Sybil (Prunella Scales), put it best in the episode "The Psychiatrist": "You're either cr... |

A Visual and Musical Delight:I saw the 1968 version of Mayerling in April of 1969 at a base theater
