UKCC14 - Quarter Final TWO: Fawlty Towers vs Only Fools & Horses

[Pavilionaire]

Congratulations to FT but interesting to note only another 10 or so votes in total cast since Saturday morning, so the weekend effect was NIL.

Sick as a parrot. Barber OUT.

Plus, Only Fools and Horses has six funny characters: Del, Rodney, Granddad, Uncle Albert, Trigger and Boycie. Fawlty Towers only has three: Basil, Manuel and The Major.

Fawlty Towers usually had one additional comedy character per episode and they were all central to the quality of each show. It is almost impossible to have more funny characters when the cast list was as small as Fawlty Towers.

As much as I liked OFAH, it had many weak episodes whereas Flowery Tw@ts, as many have said, was consistently funny. I don't remember a bad episode. John Sullivan should have left OFAH well alone once it peaked with the scene outside the auction rooms.

Should have been the final.

Should have been the final.

This has been said about FIVE of the match ups now.
