Those final 3 episodes were an abomination. The fantastic oppotunity to end it as they walked off into the sunset, but oh no.
Undoing the sunset ending was unforgivable for sure and yet I'm glad that the new 3 eps exist. I enjoyed watching them on Christmas Days at least. They were the only OFAH I saw 'live'.
Same here.

Btw, as I'm sure you're aware, Sullivan actually hedged his bets in the 1996 episode. The brothers didn't sell the flat at Nelson Mandela house in case they decided to bring the show back at a later date.
I don't think I'd ever thought about that. He always had half an eye on a comeback then.

It's actually only 5 five years later that the show comes back but it seems like much longer for some reason. There's four years between the two series of Fawlty Towers.

After extra thoughts I don't think this will be suitable for a traditional 'quiz night' gathering. It is a one on one thing really where one person picks one episode, watches it and gets interrogated about it. We can still do it though if you want. Do a few episodes each and add up the scores.

I will post a list of the episodes that can be picked.

Pick an episode, watch it, and let me know when you want to be quizzed on it.

Questions you get wrong will be open to anyone to have a guess just for fun.

As suggested previously.

I have an OFAH quiz book. It has 10 questions on each episode, not including the specials. Plus there are sets of questions on various OFAH related topics.

The questions are often about small details, so it might be best to pick an episode and watch it beforehand.

Can we organise something? Say if you are interested at least, or have ideas. Cheers.
I’m in.

Abomination is a bit far fetched but they were certainly inferior. The one where they go to France was good in parts.

All three episodes had their moments, or at least the odd moment, but they were inferior overall and clearly not worth sacrificing the 1996 ending for.

There is probably even an argument that the show should have ended before 1996 (just with a similar ending)

Aye, its final series ended in early 1991. They then did Christmas specials up until 1993 before returning for the final 3 episodes during Christmas of 1996.

So by the time it initially ended the show had been running for over 15 years.
