I remember the signs in the Fawlty Tower Series. Each episode they would display the sign with a different message. For example:

Episode One: FAWLTY TOWERS
Episode Five: WARTY TOWELS
Episode Eight: WATERY FOWLS
Episode Nine: FLAY OTTERS
Episode Ten: FATTY OWLS
Episode Eleven: FLOWERY T-(censored)
Episode Twelve: FARTY TOWELS
