I'm so glad they're giving Prunella Scales the love she deserves! Her performance as Sybil Fawlty was EVERYTHING I mean, who else could make imperiousness sound so hilarious? And can we talk about how ahead of her time that show was? Subverting traditional female roles on TV is something we should still be celebrating today Plus, her range is seriously impressive - from comedic to dramatic, she's done it all! What's even more amazing is that she continued performing until the end, despite struggling with dementia. She's a true legend and an inspiration to us all
I'm loving all these retro tributes lately! Prunella Scales is literally a masterclass in comedic acting , and her iconic performance as Sybil Fawlty is still giving me life . The way she commanded attention just with her voice was pure magic . And can we talk about how ahead of its time Fawlty Towers was in terms of female representation? It's crazy to think that a character like Sybil was so groundbreaking back in the 70s!
