Pandy investigates John Cleese's post-Flying Circus TV series Fawlty Towers. He is joined by newbie to both the show and podcasting: his wife Kelly, who's now the third Wilson on Earth-2.net. They discuss the the show as a whole, its legacy, and look at some of the shocking cultural and societal values on the show. Kelly considers what she would do when faced with a dead body, and Pandy's rose-tinted memories of the Major are crushed. [ 24:45 || 12.3 MB ]

I was surprised that Pandys wife (sorry, forgot her name) had never seen the show. I feel like if Americans know any British sitcoms they almost certainly know this one.

The major dropping the n bomb.... I thought it was more extreme that he dropped the w bomb, as by his tone of voice he seemed to be making much more of a statement with it... And I thought the w word might be on the same level as the n word in Britain?
