Synopsis. Fawlty Towers finds itself the surprise subject of an inspection by the Health Department. Unsurprisingly, the hotel is not up to snuff, and the staff scramble to clean up their act by the time the health inspector comes back the next day.
Antagonist Title: After a fashion: in a case of Bait-and-Switch, those who have not seen the episode would expect "Basil" to be Basil Fawlty, rather than Manuel's rat. Borrowed Catchphrase: "He's from Barcelona" is Basil's catch-all way of explaining Manuel's shortcomings. In the final episode, it's Sybil who says it.
