And Did You Know....that while staying in
Torquay at the Gleneagles Hotel with the Python
team in 1971, John Cleese found inspiration for
Fawlty Towers. Incidents during the Pythons' stay
are said to include the owner, Donald Sinclair,
throwing Eric Idle's suitcase out of the window,
thinking it was a bomb. Cleese later described the
eccentric owner as, "the most wonderfully rude man
I have ever met", although Mr. Sinclair's widow has
since said her husband was totally misrepresented
in the comedy. (Thanks to Wikipedia for this
information.)
