John Cleese, Prunella Scales, Connie Booth and Andrew Sachs star in two BBC TV episodes, 'Mrs Richards' and 'Hotel Inspectors'.



Mrs Richards (Joan Richardson) is a little hard of hearing. She is also a very demanding guest: 'the room is cold, the bath is too small, the view is invisible and the radio doesn't work'. Things pick up for Basil, though, after he secretly wins on the horses, but then Mrs Richards discovers she's lost some money.



In 'Hotel Inspectors', Sybil drops a bombshell: there are some hotel inspectors in town. It's time for some courtesy, especially when the irritating Mr Hutchison (Bernard Cribbins) reveals he has a wide experience of hotels ...

The items shown here are quite similar to the "main" BBC Records and Tapes library covering a wide secletion of genres from themes, comedy dramas and others, depending on which format you have selected.The main difference is the record was not released by the BBC directly - this could be because the rights were negotiated with another label or some other reason.
