Audio of all 12 episodes on LP for the first time

Audio versions of all 12 episodes of Fawlty Towers are to be released as a full vinyl LP collection for the first time.

The release, which includes a 12-inch print signed by John Cleese, will be limited to 1,500 copies.

It comprises the original four BBC vinyl albums – Fawlty Towers, Second Sitting, At Your Service and A La Carte - plus two newly created collections, Plat Du Jour and Enjoy Your Stay, to cover all the episodes.

They include a narration from the late Andrew Sachs as Manuel which is unique to the vinyl versions and hasn’t been available since the original pressings.

Demon Music Group is releasing the episodes in May for a wallet-worrying £89.99 from Amazon and other retailers.

The release has been announced today, as BBC One starts a repeat run of the sitcom tonight.
