Blimey - how spooky is that?! Funnily enough I'm just reading " A Prison Diary : Volume 1" by Archer now about his Perjury conviction and subsequent jailing in Belmarsh. So prophetic (as you say) that he says "One develops convictions later on in one's life". Bizarre to see that now in hindsight....
He’s certainly developed a load of convictions, far fewer than he deserves, this crook has just got away with being a charlatan & a crook all his life!
This was a fascinating interview, because they clearly hate each other, and they get into exchanging insults and witticisms (which was sort of this show), and then they settle into a calmer exchange, about this story that presumably Archer took from someone.
Seemed like Archer was laughing at Clives retorts genuinely. Nice to see...don't think it was 100% adversarial. I miss Clive Anderson's quick wit....then again don't watch live TV anymore !
He was the same with the Bee Gees as he was with all his guests, they just couldn't take the jokes. You seem ok for him to be "insulting" with Jeffrey Archer and all his other guests but not The Bee Gees. Also, if the Bee Gees hadn't done a hissy fit and stormed off would you even have thought anything of the interview? I doubt it.
@@Tomassius100 I always wonder whether the Bee Gees actually knew the format of show before they agreed to do it - i.e. the guests were simply there to be the butt of Clive's jokes. Anyone going on the show should have understood that.
I love reference to having 'convictions' way before Archer was convicted of dishonesty. So prophetic.

Watch how they sit, They genuinely don't like one another

Well said, I haven't had a licence for 31 years
Oh, Monica!
Let's be clear - Archer was the aggressor in this case. Clive simply replied in kind. And better.
I think the epitaph applied to the Bee Gees would be much more appropriate here.
Slime ball.
Not a great interview
Clive is so quick. I loved this show although I got what he deserved with the bee gees. The only time he wasn't funny and was just insulting.
Agree 100% 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
