Best character
I actually have no idea who to choose for this episode. A lot of the characters are quite awful in this one. Roz and Harvey especially, you’ve known Sabrina since you were kids, if she was going to curse you, she probably would have done it by now. When has she ever made a comment about them going out? I get that she’s upset about going blind, but there’s no reason to blame Sabrina.
Ok, so they do apologise, but it’s still a crappy thing to do.
I think because of all of this going down, the best character has to be Theo. He never once questioned Sabrina and even defended her to Roz and Harvey. Theo is such an underrated character, I love him.

Best quotes and one liners
DORCAS: Dear Ambrose, prison life agrees with you.
AMBROSE: If I’m going to die here, I might as well leave a good-looking corpse.
HILDA: You know, er… last winter, when we threw that party to celebrate the passing of dear old Vinegar Tom?
AMBROSE: I think of it often.
HILDA: Oh. That’s funny. ‘Cause Vinegar Tom died in 1989. The day the Berlin Wall fell. So, who are you? Because I know as sure as Heaven, you ain’t Ambrose. ( chuckles ) A glamour, Agatha? What kind of a fool do you think I am?
AMBROSE: What’s your favorite episode of Fawlty Towers?
HILDA: Well… uh… Well, I love them all.
AMBROSE: Trick question! Hm? You hate Fawlty Towers. So, now… who are you? Because sure as Heaven, you are not my auntie.
Final thoughts and fun facts
This is the highest rated episode of the entire show with a 9/10 on IMDB. When looking at the ratings, I was surprised to see that the show’s finale is the worst rated. This definitely isn’t the best episode, in my opinion. I think the first is my favourite and I also really like the Lupercalia episode, I can’t remember much of the others though, so I may change my mind on this.
