John Cleese To Gb News

[Khandro]

He's moving in with his own show next month 'no holds barred', though he's a bit of a 'remainer' as I remember, so that will be an interesting stance among his cohort of other GB News presenters.

He must be desperate for the money – I recall his last wife took him to the cleaners.

[ynnafymmi]

@15.50.All his wives took him to the cleaners.(It was a standing joke amongst the Monty Python crew).Every time Cleese got married they would say"Uh,oh.Another divorce lawyer going to making a mint".

[gingejbee]

That'll be two "must avoid at all costs" for the price of one.

[Zacs-Master]

As big as a fan of Monty Python as I am, Cleese is turning into one of those opinionated old farts who no one listens to, so a perfect fit for GB News.

[ynnafymmi]

Whenever Neil Oliver is on,GB News is quite good.He doesnt like the Scottish nationalists anymore than i do.Farage(as a Brexiteer)is unwatchable.

Zacs Master: To which "opinionated old farts who no one listens to" do you refer?

[Hopkirk]

John Cleese is now just an angry old man.

I remember the days when he used to be funny.

[ToraToraTora]

He's a remoaner and a Lib Non Dem!

[Peter Pedant]

he will obviously up the standard of reporting then

"...Cleese is turning into one of those opinionated old farts who no one listens to, so a perfect fit for GB News."

He'd slot in on here too. An antidote to those with a penchant for made-up words, acronyms, warm beer and sovereignty. :-)

[jourdain2]

innafymmi - yes, Neil Oliver is always well worth listening to.

[Unsureme]

Spot on,Douglas,18.36.I know who you mean.

[Zacs-Master]

‘ To which "opinionated old farts who no one listens to" do you refer?’

All of you.

Fixed it.

[Zacs-Master]

Thanks, Jimmy.

[Hopkirk]

Yes Fender, I remember grumpy old men. It was really good.

Rick Wakenan used to do an annual visit to the Simon Mayo show, sitting at a piano playing and chatting.

Unlike most musicians who should stick to making music, he was was so worth listening to.

[Gromit]

Cleese hasn’t written anything funny for over 40 years. From what I have seen of GB News, it is populated with washed up as beens. So he should fit in very well.
