Ooh, have a look at the links to the Fawlty Towers promo. I wonder where they might lead...!
Isn't it nice to get extra promotion for our site, guys and gals?

Traveller in Time wondering how often one is supposed to read the front page

oooh, and look at all those links to the BBC Cult site. Isn;t that the one they got rid of?
And someone should tell them that the "BBCi Cult: Andrew Sachs Interview" is defunct as well.
(all these off the main bit of the Fawlty Towers page).
But yay for a link to us on the BBC front page!

The Cult links should all still be fine, as although the team working on the site have now gone, the pages are being left up, for the time being at least.

Oh the cult ones work fine. It's onlyh the andrew sachs one that doesn't, and that links to the /doctorwho/classic/ site for some reason.

Yeah Paully, what's going on with the servers?

Paully Posted Sep 19, 2005
Darned if I know. To be honest, they've been a wee bit rickety ever since the hardware failure a couple of weeks back, which is annoying. I know that it's still being looked into by the Engineers though, so panic ye not!

Very nice. Now is there any chance that if the bbc.co.uk homepage goes back to publicising the forthcoming John Peel Day, the page could link to the hootoo entry on the esteemed Mr Peel, rather than the Wikipedia entry?
