    ‘Fawlty Towers’ Reboot In The Works With John Cleese, Camilla Cleese & Rob Reiner’s Castle Rock Entertainment

    More than 40 years after the second and final season drew to a close, Monty Python star Cleese is set to write and star alongside daughter Camilla Cleese, in news that will bring joy to a generation of British comedy fans.

    I do hope the humour that made the show such a success to be included.

    The new series will explore how Cleese’s over-the-top, cynical and misanthropic Basil Fawlty navigates  the modern world. Plot details are largely being kept under wraps but the development will bring the story forward to explore Basil’s relationship with a daughter he has just discovered he had, as the pair tempt fate and team up to run a boutique hotel.

    So the daughter will most like replace the part of his wife of the show.

    Sounds promising.

    Hopefully they keep to the none-PC humour that made the original sell.

      Lighting does not strike twice like that.  Although I have found that with sequels/reboots they can be worthy successors but that is very rare. More often than not they are contrived garbage.  Hopefully it’s funny and charming.
