- John Cleese talks to Eddie Izzard about various topics.
Cleese discusses the time Monty Python failed to make an audience laugh despite betting on it, working with Peter Sellers and Harry Secombe, the talents of The Two Ronnies, and Monty Python Live.
Cleese was talking to Izzard to highlight the publication of his autobiography 'So, Anyway…'. The book, published on the 9th October 2014, … is a must read for comedy fans worldwide. For the first time, John Cleese tells the story of how a tall, shy youth from Weston-super-Mare went on to become a self-confessed legend. En route, John Cleese describes his nerve-racking first public performance at St Peter’s Preparatory School at the age of eight and five-sixths; his first experiences in the world of work as a teacher who knew nothing about the subjects he was expected to teach; and his first encounter with his writing partner for over two decades, Graham Chapman.

John Cleese has aged in every way one must, and have remained young in every way one should.
Yes, but no man, regardless of his age, should ever sit on a chair the way John did in this video...
I'm certain he'll take your suggestion under advisement.
Growing old is mandatory , growing up is optional.
i guess it is pretty off topic but do anyone know of a good website to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Tristen Rodney Try FlixZone. You can find it by googling =)
Two fantastic comedians. Both of them are my greatest personal idols and heroes. Amazing to see!!
As interested as I am in the book, I really want to see more of this interview. I'd think the trouble John Cleese and Eddie Izzard could get in to together would be the stuff epic poems are made of.
Fan of both men. It makes me sad that they’re getting older. Love the British humor and unapologetic style.
Absolute LEGEND!!!!!! God bless the Cless
Brilliant man, Awesome comedy !!!!!
Two brilliant human beings
Love this guy ... they should have made him King of England.
never seen him this old. great actor, great man
He's never been this old before.
eric moss

eric moss None of us have.
that's how aging works
Eddie Izzard the next jimi sav
This guy is a genius! It's all about humour! Even in the recent advert where he's recreating hitting his car with a piece of tree...he understands it's all a piss take!
great man.
didn't know john cleese was bearing triplets. they must be around 3 yrs old now.
I'm sure this is a great interview but it's so fucking quiet I literally can't make out anything that's being said, and oh look, there aren't even crappy auto-generated captions. Thanks for nothing.

John Cleese has put on a bit of weight!
How many months pregnant is John by the way?
He's old and rich. He deserves to look like that... I know I will when I get old :p
@@TucBroder Nevertheless, he’s sitting on front of someone who, in addition to being a global (linguistically and geographically) comedy legend (solo stand-up), is someone who can run a marathon a day for 30 days straight for charitable causes. Perhaps he should take up Izzard’s advise to all to eat and exercise sensibly.
@@ledeyabaklykova Why? He's over 80? Suddenly starting to exercise and eat sensibly won't buy him many extra years...
When is the baby due, anybody?
I hate sitting face-to-face with someone who's telling a mildly amusing anecdote or long joke.
I mean, you don't want to hurt their feelings. But at the same time, you want to strangle them for subjecting you
to the torture of having to appear entertained and on the edge of your seat for X minutes, while staring the
performer straight in the eyes.
And the more boring the tale, the more excruciating this facade becomes to maintain.
I don't know how Eddie does it. He clearly didn't care for the "Boils" story, but he still sat there with a frozen smile.
