Summary
Everyone had heard of Fawlty Towers. Well, they'd heard of the Famous Fawlty, anyway. In fact, more people knew about Mr Fawlty than they did the hotel itself, and if someone knew the man and not his line of work, “That man owns a hotel!?” usually followed.

Summary
Basil didn't pretend he was romantic. Wasting time over something so trivial was alien to him, and besides, there were more pertinent things to obsess over. Like running a hotel. At least he found some comfort in pretending he was good at that.
A study in Basil and Sybil's sex life...or lack of it.
