Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Situation comedy - History

The situation comedy format originated on radio in the 1920s. The first situation comedy is often said to be Sam and Henry which debuted on the Chicago, Illinois clear-channel station WGN in 1926, and was partially inspired by the notion of bringing the mix of sexual confusion and continuity found in comic strips to the young medium of radio. The first network situation comedy was Amos & Andy which debuted on CBS in 1928, and was one of the most popular sitcoms through the 1930s. According to the 11th edition of the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary, the term sitcom was coined in 1951, making the t ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Situation comedy - Characteristics

Traditionally, situation comedies featured individual episodes that were largely self-contained; the regular characters themselves remained largely static and events of the episode resolved themselves by the conclusion of the episode. Most sitcoms took this format; events of previous episodes would rarely be mentioned in subsequent episodes and while school friends or beloved relatives might appear, often they would only be seen once in the series, something apparen ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Spice Girls - Legacy

The huge popularity of the Spice Girls in the 1990s led to the formation and success of many girl groups in the pop/R&B genre. Even though girl groups have existed for a long time, the success of the Spice Girls enlarged and popularized the market. Some of the groups were manufactured, while others were existing girl groups who seized the opportunity. Even though there was a small demise, the genre has remained very popular w ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Spice Girls - Spice's Future

Members of the group have stated that they do not see any future for the Spice Girls, but the group has never formally split up. Each member has released solo albums (with varying degrees of commercial success, but not nearly in the same class as their group efforts). Each of the girls' solo popularity has waned over the past four years. As their layoff extends, speculation grows that the group will not perform or record again. In January 2003, a meeting between all five members spawned rumours of a reunion, but no announcements have ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Spice Girls - 5 Become 4

Geri Halliwell announced her desire to quit the group shortly after the release of "Stop". She claimed she was tired, fed up, and wanted to pursue a solo career. This did not come as a huge surprise to some fans, as she had always been seen as wanting to do her own thing and the Spice Girls were simply a stepping stone to a successful solo career. Halliwell agreed that she would only leave after the completion of the American Tour which began in June 1998, because "you couldn't get any better than that." However, events quickly spun out of c ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Situation comedy - Specific countries of origin

Most US sitcoms are half-hour shows in which the story is written to run a total of 22 minutes in length, leaving 8 minutes of commercial time. Sitcoms made outside the US may run somewhat longer. US sitcoms are often characterised by long season runs of 20 or more episodes, whereas the British sitcom is traditionally comprised of distinct series of six episodes each. US sitcoms often have large teams of young script writers from top universities firing gags into the script and round-table sessions, while most British sitcoms are written by one or two p ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - Torquay - Geography

Torquay is situated on the South West coast of England, forming one third of Torbay, and is primarily on the western side of the bay. It has a mild microclimate, and cabbage trees (often erroneously dubbed "Torbay Palms") are a notable feature of the area. They were introduced into the area in 1820 from New Zealand and since then have flourished. There are currently thousands throughout the town. Torquay is also set along a coastline renowed for its beaches, having no fewer than nine popular beaches. The high standards of water qualit ...

The show's name derived from its broadcast schedule — it was transmitted on BBC Two at the same time as the main Nine O'Clock News went out on BBC One, leading to the opportunity for some amusing continuity announcements. However, this soon worked against the schedulers, who found that the audience they were hoping to attract were often drawn to both programmes. For this reason, Not the Nine O'Clock News was swiftly moved to 9.30pm. Starring a new generation of young comedians, it helped bring alternative comedy to the ...

Fawlty Towers: Encyclopedia II - M5 motorway - Features

There are many notable features of the M5. The massive interchange, Almondsbury Interchange, between the M5 and the M4 near Bristol is one of them. Another is the Avonmouth Bridge that is often a bottleneck in heavy traffic. Beyond that is the split in height between the Northbound and Southbound carriageways, as the motorway climbs the sides of the hills above the Gordano valley, between Portishead and Clevedon. Some of the road later on is in a distinctive pink color due to th ...
