Maybe from 'The Builders' when he's so nonchalant about the fact that the dining room door is missing, tells Basil he's "sure it'll turn up", asks if the newspapers have arrived yet, then helps Manuel to the kitchen via the outside entrance.
One of my all-time favs.
Wait a minute who am I here? -

Yeah good one Doom
For some reason the bit where Bernard Cribbins gets knocked out and then Fawlty goes "bit of cheese" and the Major goes "yes please" always has me in stitches. Even as I'm typing it I'm laughing!
Cambridge man you know. His uncle Bertie and I used to break wind for our college. -

When the moose head fell on Manuel and Basil, completely obscuring Manuel, and Manuel moaned "ohh, hhe(Basil) hhit me on the hhead!" and the major retorts while wagging his finger at the moose head: "no, YOU hit HIM(Basil), you naughty moose!"

Yes, and before that, when he asked Basil if it was Japanese, LOL, a Japanese moose. And when Basil said "Canadian, I think" the Major says "I didn't think Canadians were as clever as that". And I'm Canadian, LOL.

When basil is trying to convince him that he gave him the money from the horse race
Basil "Please please think please"
Major "What were we talking about again"
It's so painful watching basil trying to make him remember -

Mr. Hamilton: What I'm suggesting is that this place is the the crummiest, shoddiest, worst-run hotel in the whole of Western Europe.
The Major: No! No, I won't have that! There's a place in Eastbourne.
I love his momentary loyalty to Basil -

I loved the bit in Basil the Rat when he is talking about seeing the rat but Basil thinks he talking about Germans.
The Major -"He was sitting there, on the table, eating the nuts if you please!"
Basil (To himself) "He's really gone this time" -

Suspect only those in Commonwealth countries will get this one.
Major talking about a girl he met decades earlier.
Major "I must have been keen on her because I took her to see INDIA!"
Basil (interested) "Really!?"
Major: "Yes.. At the Oval".
