[QUOTE="Swami, post: 224356, member: 13"] Even though it was only a 16-minute production, it was still a brave thing to do to resurrect the character of Frank Spencer, inevitably there is a risk when bringing a previous hit back to the screen that the original loses its gloss a bit, but it worked out well. One thing I would have loved to have seen, a Millennium special for instance or for Comic Relief, assuming all parties agreed to it, would have been a one-off return of Fawlty Towers, but to include hotel guests like Frank Spencer, the Trotters, Mr Bean, Norman Stanley Fletcher, Hyacinth Bucket. To see Basil dealing with the likes of Hyacinth would have been good. Alas, too many people no longer with us to make that happen. Swami [/QUOTE]
