Movies Fawlty Towers is Coming Back With John Cleese & Daughter Camilla

Fawlty Towers Reboot Confirmed With John Cleese and Daughter Camilla....

The series will explore how Basil Fawlty navigates the modern world.

BBC 9 FEB 2023







A reboot of Fawlty Towers has been confirmed, more than 40 years after the iconic sitcom last broadcast new episodes.

John Cleese will be returning to reprise his role as Basil Fawlty for the new series – which he will also write – while he will be joined in the cast by his daughter Camilla Cleese.



The new run will see Basil manage a boutique hotel with his daughter, who he has just realised is his, and will explore how the character navigates the modern world.

No further casting information has been revealed at this stage, but executive producers for the reboot will include actor and director Rob Reiner, his wife and actress Michele Reiner, director and producer Matthew George and Derrick Rossi.

The reboot was first pitched to Cleese by George, and according to the former Monty Python star, the original meeting to discuss the idea was "one of the best creative sessions I can remember".

He added: "Camilla and I look forward enormously to expanding it into a series."

Meanwhile, George said: "I've watched the first two seasons so many times I have lost count. I dreamed of one day being involved in a continuation of the story. Now it's come true."
