Fawlty Towers Part 1
In this episode of Fawlty Towers there are many examples of farces. One example that helps me identify this clip as a farce is when Basil is at the hospital and the nurse says, "a doctor is coming." and Basil responds, "My god a doctor, I mean here at the hospital, that means that we can do ti here." because Basil is referring to an improbable situation, which is that his wife might not be operated being in a hospital, which is absurd. Another example is when Basil is at the Hotel and is speaking to his wife on the phone and because of all the things she has asked him to do, he asks her if she would like the entire hotel moved to the a little to right. These were some of the examples that I identified in this clip as being part of a farce.
