Tweet of the week is from one of our newest Sybils, Imogen Miller-Porter, and is a great picture of her, Benedict Holme (Basil) and Leigh Kelly (Manuel) on the front cover of the Nottingham Post this week.
Who's on the front page of the Nottingham Post today? It's only bleedin' us of course! @thefaultytowers pic.twitter.com/FqYzHXN9P6

Manuel heard that LEGO now has a beautiful, 3,000 brick rendition of Sydney Opera House, so he thought he’d try his hand at the same thing in London, with a little help from his new friend and budding architect, Charlie.
Manuel will be off to Sydney himself soon… Faulty Towers The Dining experience is at Sydney Opera House 24 – 29 September 2013.
For more information and tickets, go to the Australian Tickets page of www.interactivetheatre.com.au or go direct to Sydney Opera House.

As the Fringe draws to a close and we get ready to pack away the plastic fish, teeth, fire extinguisher and rat back into their home in the props kit after our last shows tomorrow we wondered… what’s the weirdest props you’ve seen in Edinburgh this month?
Whether you’re a participant or a punter, tweet your favourites to @thefaultytowers and win a pair of £20 tickets to tomorrow’s lunchtime show!
How many sets of false teeth do you think a Faulty Towers show goes through in a year?? Heaps … particularly when the cleaners throw them in the bin!! We had the kitchen staff from B’est Resaurant, Edinburgh ‘dumpster diving’ the other day to get one set of teeth back!! Thankfully they found them and they’re now sparkling and hygienic once again. Happily, we sourced a few new sets too… All donations gratefully received!
Mr. & Mrs. Faulty received this beautifully written letter in the post this morning at B’est Restaurant, Edinburgh from one of last week’s ‘Majors’…
We’re fundraising again for BBC Children in Need, this year aiming for a whopping £10,000. We’ve started collecting at the Edinburgh Fringe and shall continue afterwards as we tour the UK. So if you see us somewhere with the Children in Need buckets, please help us ‘show our spots and raise lots!’. Click here for more information on our earlier efforts.

This year’s first Fringe show is just a week away! It’s a good thing the Faultys left plenty of time to get there…
“I can honestly say that this was the best show I have ever seen, two hours of nonstop laughing and a lovely meal.”

A fab 5 star review from ‘What’s Good To Do’ of the show at The Charing Cross Hotel, London!

Err Basil, I don’t think you should point at Sybil like that, you never know what might happen!
