Nearly 50 years ago John Cleese wrote Fawlty Towers, yesterday he unveiled the new Fawlty Towers play at the Apollo Theatre. I’m not saying he’s a slow writer but ….

The Wooburn Grange Country Club, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire - better known as the hotel used for the exterior shots in one of the greatest British comedies, Fawlty Towers ... a hotel on the English Riviera at '16 Elwood Avenue', in the town of Torquay, in the county of Devon. Proprietors? One Mr Basil Fawlty and his long suffering (and sufferable) wife Cybil! Sadly, the country club burnt down in the 1990s, and the entire site was subsequently redeveloped. At the heart of the complex of buildings was the original mid-Victorian era building which featured in the TV series, and although of no great architectural merit (in terms of receiving statutory protection), it was however (for those of a certain age) a cultural icon, and as such had immense value. According to information available online, the country club was situated along 'Grange Drive', near to the junction named 'Wooburn Grange' (in Bourne End, Buckinghamshire), and stood on a mound of grass between the two roads. Having looked at some historical maps, it would appear the structure (which was later extended to become the country club) was built sometime between 1875 - 1899. There are two possible candidates shown on an 1899 Ordnance Survey map: one referred to as 'The Chestnuts', the other as 'Brook House'. My guess (from the shape of the building's footprint) is that it was 'The Chestnuts' that later became the Wooburn Grange Country Club. I've taken a bit of artistic licence with the illustration since there are few photos of the original building available online, especially ones that show the roof. In particular, I've depicted it as (the original 19th century) detached building, when in reality, by the time the TV series was filmed, a bar or restaurant abutted this to the right (presumably part of the country club development), which you can see in some of the online photos, as well as some exterior scenes in the TV series. #fawltytowers #classiccomedy #bbc #portraitofahouse #johncleese #prunellascales #andrewsachs #conniebooth #architecturalillustration #architecture #3dsmax #1970s #adobeillustrator #adobephotoshop

Did you know that "Fawlty Towers" was based on a real hotel? 🤯 The show's creators, John Cleese and Connie Booth, were inspired by their own experiences staying at a hotel called "The Gleneagles" in Torquay, England. Although the show's setting and characters are fictional, they drew inspiration from the eccentricities they witnessed during their stay! 🙌 #johncleesememorabilia #celebritymemorabilia #memorabilia #signedart #signedartprints #limitededitionprints #iconic #autograph #autographcollector #andrewsachs #collectibles #collectart #officialprint #signedmemorabilia #authenticsignedprints #ukcomedy #johncleese #sillywalks #montypython #ukcomedylegends #johncleesesillywalk #ministryofsillywalks #python #basilfawlty #fawltytowers #manuel

Andrew Sachs, from the archive which I remembered due to the current investigation into Russell Brand's behaviour. This shoot happened during the height of "Sachsgate" as it was known at the time and my first high profile cover shoot. This was the only shoot and interview Andrew gave about the situation and so I was very mindful during the session. He was lovely and kind. Unfortunately this was the completely opposite behaviour of the aggressive journalist from the magazine who proceeded to pry & pick away asking horrible questions, so much so he became visibly upset and had to take a break. This was also the first time I had witnessed the ugly side of journalism and even through not directly responsible have always felt guilty. #chrismcandrew #andrewsachs #sachsgate #russellbrand #jonathanross #bbc #bbcradio2 #dispatches #channel4 #portraitphotography #georginabaillie #adamant #manuel #faultytowers

Update of my growing blu ray collection #fawltytowers by @bbc and stars #johncleese #andrewsachs
Frightmare (1974). Directed by Pete Walker. Written by David McGillivray. "Some people are day people but we like being night people...it's such fun being a night person, isn't it?" As much as I love 'The Wicker Man', 'Blood On Satan's Claw', 'Don't Look Now', latter day Hammer etc etc, for me the Walker-McGillivray collaborations are the best British horror films of the 70's (yes, I can even make a case for 'Schizo'). Certainly they capture the desperate, despondent air of their era better than anything else, the violence & frustration always seething beneath the surface. Or at least I imagine that to be the case, I am slightly too young to remember the mid 70's clearly, so I guess these films serve as some miserable, mystical vision of Albion for me. Anyway - prematurely released from an asylum, a weak father enables his cannibal wife to continue to feed her illness ("Just tell me one thing, mother. Are you well?"). But for me, personally, the most distressing element of the narrative is the inter-family cruelty, betrayal &, (quite literally) back stabbing. I totally identify with older sister Jackie, even though Debbie, the psychotic younger sibling, is one of my all time favourite screen characters ("nasty, innit?"). 'Frightmare' seems torn between whether its promoting anarchy & rebellion, or encouraging a more authoritarian regime, again symbolic of the era in which it's made, as this contradiction seems to have informed everything from 'Cabaret' to The Sex Pistols. But, whatever you think it is trying to say, the eminently quotable dialogue will no doubt be drilled into you.

Ended up having a conversation about Fawlty Towers on Twitter this morning, specifically the different wordings on the sign through the episodes. My favourite sign (Flowery T***s) is apparently (according to Samuel West) the reason why that particular episode has a 12 rating and all the others are PG. #fawltytowers #johncleese #prunellascales #conniebooth #andrewsachs #britishcomedy

『ファウスト』 * * 長いこと名前だけ知っていました。16世紀後半のドイツに実在したらしい錬金術師ドクトル・ファウストゥスをモデルにしたゲーテの戯曲。内容をチラッと調べましたが、あらすじとしてまとめられそうもないです。 * * そんな大作をヤン・シュヴァンクマイエルが人形劇を加えて映像化。想像どおり斬新すぎる。観るのは良くても部屋に飾りたくはない人形が魅力的だ。ラストは...あ、足が！足がー！毎回驚かせてくれる！ヤン・シュヴァンクマイエル作品は全部観たいと思っています😈 * * #ファウスト #ゲーテ #ヤンシュヴァンクマイエル #faust #lekcefaust #goethe #jansvankmajer #petrcepek #jankraus #vladimírkudla #antoninzacpal #jirisuchy #andrewsachs
