I know nothing!

My fave was the butter on the trays skit, or maybe the rat.

Fawlty Towers star Andrew Sachs, who played hapless Spanish waiter Manuel in the BBC sitcom, has died aged 86, his family has confirmed.


The actor died on 23 November and was buried on Thursday, according to an interview with his wife Melody in the Daily Mail [dailymail.co.uk].


On his role of Manuel, Sachs said in 2014: "It was just a part I was playing and people seemed to laugh."


Manuel was one of the most imitated comedy characters of the 1970s. The waiter, who famously hailed from Barcelona, often said little more than the word "Que?" to generate laughs, but arguably his most famous line was "I know nothing".
