    The writing is so good. "Now listen to me!" makes whomever says it instantly dislike-able.

    What makes this even funnier is Basil's sudden realisation that he can insult Mrs Richards as much as he wants and she can't hear him.

    Superb writing and acting on so many levels. You wouldn't get away with it now because you would trigger people who would complain that it demeans deaf people. Unfortunately, I'm not joking 😢

    We've just booked into a hotel on the Costa Del Sol, and my missus isn't happy with the sea view she requested ... just reminded me of this. She's going down to reception to complain...😅

    John Cleese wrote the role of Mrs. Richards specifically for Joan Sanderson, who was his long time good friend and collaborator. She originally declined the role, as she thought that the character was a total opposite to her own character and that she wouldn't be able to pull it off. Luckely, Cleese managed to convince her. Until her death, Sanderson claimed that it was her favorite TV appearance of her entire career.

      I know that many will say that Germans is better episode then this one and in some ways it is. However, literally the only person responsible for the quality success of that episode was John Cleese, whose anti German antics totally stole the show. In this one, he is totally overshadowed by Joan Sanderson, who totally stole the show. Basically, Cleese and all others actors were supporting cast to Sanderson in this one, as literally entire episode revolved around Mrs Richards. I consider this episode to be the only time John Cleese was totally overshadowed by an another actor in this series.
