Manuel imitating his boss by waving his arms around is classic comedy....RIP Andrew. You are sorely missed.
Although Andrew Sachs, who played Manuel, died a few years ago, Manuel will always live on through Fawlty Towers and this clip is one of so many hilarious scenes in the show, especially those involving Manuel - Manuel will forever be one of the most famous and loved characters in comedy, there is no doubt whatsoever about this. Even after 43 years since it was last made, Fawlty Towers still has, and will always have, us laughing until our ribs ache!
Absolutely spot on. I've watched it a thousand times and practically know if off by heart and it STILL cracks me up.!
Best sit-com ever bar none!
no u
Aye, I bought the entire series, and binge watch the lot every so often.
I told her you want to see girl but she go crazy!
I tell her “You crazy about the girl”. That simple double meaning on 'crazy' and there you have it, along with fine actors, fine casting and perfect timing - a scene of comic immortality 😂
Lol great comment
The incredible Andrew Sachs. What a talent, it didn’t matter whether he was a silly Spanish waiter from Barcelona, or portraying Albert Einstein, he was absolutely brilliant, especially considering he was an Englishman!
RIP Andrew Sachs.......
Born in Berlin.
i thought he was a krout ?
@@blackbob3358 Sachs is a Jewish surname.
He was German. Great actor!
Born Andreas Siegfried Sachs. German was his first language.
I love Sybil's walk when she goes outside...
Sybil was very sexy.
She's too sexy for her shirt so sexy it huuurrrttttssss
Sybil was hot! I love her style
Was that what @monkeyintensity1 meant…?
Especially in that skirt 😂@@70ad25
the way she walks away from him after slapping, and Manuel flinches twice as Basil approaches is wonderful. Both fully immersed in their characters.
I love how Manuel is just randomly eating an ice cream cone in the lobby.
He was having a break lol
@@RosieJonesRules and howhe dumps it too
mmm
That was a bit random 🤣🍦
@@Simon0 deliberate. The Spanish eat ice cream only at night, midnight even. Interesting fact.
I think this scene is the best comedy scene in TV history. "She go crazy." Andrew Sachs is pure genius! 😅
Unmatched after almost 50 years. I still marvel at Andre’s Sacks performance, he literally IS Manuel. In the days before the internet, I read somewhere that he was an Englishman and I refused to believe it 😂

Manuel was a work of comedy genius. His physical comedy is perfect, his timing impeccable
This scene still puts me to tears no matter how many time I have seen it. Pure comedic perfection.
Sybil's walk, the ferocious slap and Basil's collapse - simply perfect.
The Fawlty Towers episodes were all great, but "The Psychiatrists" and "Communication Problems" were on another level.
They were all good in their own way. Hard to pick a favourite...
Communication Problems has been my favorite FT episode for decades. The fearsome Mrs Richards, with her selective deafness (Basil: You heard that all right didn't you) is far and away the most vivid and terrifying of all the guests, and the wonderful Joan Sanderson played her to perfection.
yes for me its wedding party, gourmet night, communication problems and the psychiatrists
@@jasonhurd4379the subtle “and that doesn’t work either” when Basil taps the bell on the counter!
1:20 - The moment Sybil realises that Basil is chasing a girl. She straightens up and says "I see ..."
An actor may die but his roles live forever in the minds of the audience. MANUEL.... Chapeau!
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve seen this and I’m still in tears of laughter. Which is amazing for something I saw for the first time nearly fifty years ago. Back then we were four generations of the family watching it as it was aired, no dvds or dvrs back then, everyone of us aged from 7 to 70 laughing our guts up. Pure genius.
Well not really nearly 50 years ago. This was from the second series 1979. At the very very most it would be 44 years....6 years away from 50 .
I love how Manuel runs into the dark depths of Torquay, when he thinks that Basil will kick his ass! xD xD xD
When psychiatrist observes to his wife on Basil's weird behaviour "enough for entire conference.' That makes me laugh.
R.I.P. Mr. Sachs
He no here.... :(
“Que?”
mmm
@Peter Davies ¡Descansa En Paz, Señor Sachs!
You the British : THERE IS NO OTHER PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WITH SUCH FUNNY COMEDIES!!!!!
Andrew Sachs.. Manuel, was MORE than amazing. If you ever had the privilege to hear him discuss acting in articulate English, you know what I mean.
He will literally BECOME the character he's given! Dialect included!
That being said.. this whole crew was perfect in their parts.
He was a brilliant method actor - and had the skill and resilience not to let the immersion in his character spill over into his life off-stage. That’s hard to do
Basil's look when when Manuel explains "he try to see in girl's room, she go crazy"
Perfect writing and perfect casting and not just in the main roles but the guest stars from Joan Sanderson, Robin Ellis, Bernard Cribbins to Nicky Henson. I watch a lot of old b pics and Ballard Berkeley often appears in the guise of a policeman but despite his many roles in film he is without a doubt remembered now for his portrayal of the Major. Still stands up nearly 50 years on and for me hasn’t dated but unlike social media a man trying not to mention the war while mentioning the war is hilarious.
You british, you make THE BEST FUNNY FILMS OF THE WORLD🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Omg I know..the good o days I watched this alot back in the 1990s
And the best colonial empire
I remember watching this year's ago when it came out and how I couldn't breathe through laughing.
Martin Cornish Indeed!
Haah!
bad memories from ''i coudnt breathe'' ahem
I lost it completely when Basil was forced to hide in the wardrobe
Pure magic. A very strong couple together.
Basil thinks Sybil has gone completely insane... until Manuel explains!
I love how John Cleese snuck in a "what the fuck?!" by simply slurring it into "whhhaaaathfug"
Yeh I just heard "what the......." - seemed quite ahead of its time!
You british the best funny films EVER!!!!!
Thank GOD these are available. Hands Down the MOST hilarious comedy sitcom every made. Yes only two seasons, but the best written comedy sitcom I've ever seen and I've seen them all. They say comedy is timing, this is a perfect example.
I laugh so hard, I'm crying and gasping for breath and loving every second. I wish this would get more recognition around the world. I guarantee they will not be disappointed!
OMGDDDD it’s just that scene where prunella walks really
carefully but on a proper change in her heels and with no hesitation just slaps cleece as he says “hello dear!!”
so hard and he falls over OMGDDD i’m crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even reading the title for this clip you automatically read it as Manuel would speak it!
I know right! Didn’t realise I did exactly that till you pointed it out😅😅😅
A scene from the psychiatrist. When I first watched it, I cried with laughter from beginning to end. Rarely is a piece of comedy so much one thing after another after another and another..
LOL. When he's tapping on the window, then gradually falls backwards!
I remember being a kid in the 80s and my parents still watching this. I sat down with them one night and laughed my head off and was a fan from then on. It’s a sad fact my kids will not have that experience with me.
Absolute Gold....never tired of watching this....
"...We'll go on with your training in the morning. We're just training him in the art of hotel management..."😂
The layout of the stairs (going up one side, going down to reach the first floor…😂 just confirms the madness in this hotel … Flowery Twatts!
"It's rather interesting actually...... he's from Barcelona" as he desperately tries to rescue the situation and inject some normality and then gracefully falls through the doorway. Just brilliant.
They should have done more episodes thats for sure. Have watched them over and over again through the years from the start date and they still makes me laugh. Not bad. 😂👍
John Cleese and Connie Booth stopped at twelve episodes because they both knew they couldn't improve on what they'd already written, so they left it at that, and finished on a high.
RIP Andrew Sachs, you are and always will be terrific!
A number a years ago, the local PBS station would run a marathon of the entire run of this show during pledge week. The pledge breaks became increasingly necessary as it went along because I was in serious pain from laughing too much.
That's how I discovered The Red Shoes 👠(1948) for my wife and myself one rainy Saturday in the early-'80s.
First class show 🙏 still laugh 😂😂😭🤣 All these years on 🙏👏
0.25 - I love that fall off the ladder part It looks accidental but it’s great they kept it in. Just drags another chuckle out of you.
Paused laugh & close up of Basil, after Sybil slams the door cause in the outtake,she made the walls wobble!
A sensitive and nuanced portrayal of southern Mediterranean culture.
The best comedy ever made
Best show of all time... Salute...👏👏👏👏❤❤❤
Back when comedy was actually creative, intelligent & genuinely funny.
They don't make them like this anymore, i always said , the British were the best for making (comedy) sitcoms like this .
This is comedy perfection, almost like a cartoon Fawlty never quite catches Sybil until she reaches the marital door, which soon becomes a barrier, and Manuel offering empathy gets his ass kicked
This is soooooo hilarious! Great acting!
Is strange how 2 of the greatest shows of all-time but only had just one season honeymooners Fawlty towers yet are still some of the most beloved series ever and could have gone on for years but stars just didn't want to take chances of ruining perfection
Fawlty Towers had two seasons.
A "season" (or "series", as we used to call them back then) of a UK sitcom would usually comprise 6-8 episodes. Fawlty Towers was 2 x 6 episode seasons. We're lucky there were more than just 6 episodes, as John and Connie had split up after the first season, but managed to nonetheless pool their resources to create a second set. By having so few, it means every episode is top quality, and the writing style meant each episode had several memorable scenes in it such that people were often convinced there were more than 12 episodes. E.g. The ingrowing toenail, German visitors, Basil's concussion, the fire drill and the talking moose head all occur in one episode: "The Germans". :-)
Never gets old
Great show then ,now and will always be.
That ladder nearly takes his head off 😅
I used to watch this show in the early 90's, some funny episodes for sure
RIP Andrew Sachs, no thanks to you, Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand.
What happened?
@@justinpollard5774 they rang Andrew Sachs up while live on their radio show and chatted to him about having sex with his granddaughter; this was when AS was in early stages of dementia. That’s my recollection anyway.
@@jashugg What the actual fuck.
2:59 GAHHHHH!!!
The funniest thing about this is how Sybil just walks up to Basil and slaps him without any explanation and just simply takes Manuel's word for it (a guy who is learning to speak English). 🤣
Crazy she go crazy
Perfect comic timing ❤
I Wish I could Remove My kidneys to Laugh More at This. 'She go CRASZY'!
Has to be the funniest slap in television history.
Basil's face at the window it an absolute classic plus the look on the faces of the guests.
One of my favourite scenes That and “Mrs Walker”.
The one dislike must be Sybil!
She got 24 friends and relatives to dislike as well
How did anyone actually DOWNVOTE this?!?! Besides being part of a gem of great comedy, it is a classic scene from a gem.
my favourite comedy show.
Just amazing 😂😂😂
The comedy writing of John Cleese and Connie Booth are the Best, THE BEST!
An all-time classic 😂
QUE, QUE..!!! Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
R.I.P amigo Manuel.. 😭😭😭
Omg he died hell no I love that guy he was the best
Que? He no here
This was the scene especially which originally had me literally gasping to breathe as I was laughing. I slid off the couch and onto the floor and lay curled up trying to get oxygen.
when basil goes to lean on the bedroom door and it opens at 3.20 ...I now know where only fools and horses got the idea for the del boy going to lean on the bar classic
Comedy is serious business and not everyone's cup of tea but the cast of this serial seem to be born with a funny bone Their acting is natural and effortlessl,that they lift this art to a other level ltogether NO serial can match this in perfect comic timing.
This just might be funniest scene ever filmed. I almost died of laughter when I saw it the first time.
Fawlty Towers was a series of crazy comedies, a flood of humour that was roaring funny! Good news is John Cleese is going to revive this comedy!
It’s the greatest comedy series, but if you had to pick one, this is the funniest episode.
Comedy at its very best, when TV was worth watching.
Comedy genius. Not a second wasted.
comedy perfection,
If there ever was an iconic line in comedy - “she go crazy” 😂
Manuel is so funny, Mrs Fawtly get Crazy haha
Stop hitting me!! 🤣🤣
just going to err... **slap**
Brlliant scene, the expression of Manuel and the reaction of Basil once he realizes the actual circumstances ....hilarious...!!
Fawltys face as Manuel informs him what he told Sybil😂😂
Who else is watching in 2020? 🙋🏾♀️
Have watched Fawlty Towers all my life and Will continue till I die.
Best comedy show evee
She go crazy 🤷🏽♂️😂😂
Watching in 2021
2022
22 my friend. Watching it now 2022. Timeless masterpiece
Priceless 🤣🤣🤣
‘ She go crazy ‘ - brilliant
Haah!
Memorable!
☆☆☆☆☆
"...Mrs. Fawlty, she go crazy!"
Magnificent how he falls to the ground after the slap from Sybil.
this was one of the best misunderstandings in the entire series
I always think how close was Manuel to the ladder when it flicks up at 0:54?
Yep.
Not surprising considering that Andrew also received permanent burns from a smoke producing gel. Those kind of actor protections were not in place back then. They sure don't make 'em like they used to.
@@em7dim9 He also sustained head injuries from the frying pan on the back of the head. Cleese picked up the wrong pan (the right one was made from rubber). I'm sure that Cleese was negligent in his interaction with Sachs - funny scenes at the expense of serious injuries. That 'clunk' that sounds during the frying pan scene is a real pan hitting the back of Sach' head.
@@scottscott232 - Since I heard Cleese saying he picked the wrong pan, I always cringe when I see him hitting Andrew so hard. BTW, the stunt-pan was not a rubber pan, but a pan with a padded bottom.
I was more curious, how Basil was able to stand up again on his feet after falling off the ladder from such height, first floor. In real life, I presume one would break their arms and/or legs and probably end up in a wheelchair for life, so this scene looks like imitation of Tom & Jerry cartoon :))
Brilliant
from about mid-point to end😆👍
It was the best 🙏🙏🙏
The plastic windows! :)
I always say this at a bad moment, just like Manuel. :) LOL!!
I love how Manuel starts to tell the story with ""okay"", and it just goes sideways.....
tons and tons of slapstick ❤❤❤
