The Paperboy, though rarely seen, is revealed to be the prankster who rearranges the letters on the “Fawlty Towers” sign to sometimes crude phrases. The shot of the hotel’s sign appears at the beginning of every episode but one, “The Germans”, when a hospital is used, since it is the only episode which does not begin at the hotel. During the first series, the sign loses letters each episode until almost no letters are left. Episode five brings the first anagram: “Warty Towels”. In the second series, the first episode sign correctly spells ‘Fawlty Tower’, but changes in each subsequent episode, from the correct spelling to various anagrams. ‘Flowery Twats’ is the only proper anagram, using all the letters.
