The American tourist is Bruce Boa, who was born in Canada. He played General Rieekan in the film The Empire Strikes Back and General Peterson in Octopussy, plus many other roles.
Boa's most notable film role is in The Empire Strikes Back (1980) as General Rieekan. [per Wilkpedia]. He also appeared in Full Metal Jacket, but, although Canadian, tended to play Yanks in British film and TV productions.
Mr Johnston is played by Terence Conoley in this episode who also appeared as Mr Wareing (Gin and Orange etc) in the very first episode "A Touch of Class"
"An older English woman from the 70's" Connor mate listen, them women are at least in their 70's I was born in the 70's and at 45 I'm not happy about the comparison 😀
Prunella scales who plays basils wife Cybill faulty is a brilliant actress, yes the way she makes you angy is excellent Polly or Connie Booth during the show was John Cleese real wife The visitors are supposed to be American
Bruce Boa who plays the American in his episode was part of a group that casting agents called Rent-A-Yank. But, he is actually Canadian. Bruch Boa was also in the 007 film Octopussy.
6:22 _"Polly is great"_ (in your square american mind🤪) because she's the normal type character written in mainly to contrast with the funny characters. A standard technique in comedy since centuries back.
I hate it when youtubers apologise because someone suspects them of complimenting a person or character for their beauty. There's nothing wrong with it.

Full metal jacket . " born to kill on your helmet and peace sign on your jacket" ... "who side you're son."
@@jukopliut and a small appearance in Return to Oz (1985)
8:03 that actor is one of the few to appear in two episodes. He also wants a "scotch and water please" in the first episode.
The captions were John Cleese's intro to the first episode of Not the Nine O'Clock News, which he did in character as Basil.
The actor who played Mr. Johnston was also in another episode where he is not wearing a wig and says' A lemon squash, a scotch and soda".

Lovely Xmas tree 🎄 shame i can't have one because of bloody kittens ☹️ can't leave presents out cos they'll tear them apart 🙄
Then get rid of them lol.
As a Scotsman living in England, I’d almost forgotten about the handsome New Englandman on You Tube! Super reaction! 😘
I love this episode. Sybil is so sharp. She’s hysterical - so jealous of the Hamiltons’ California lifestyle.
The American was played by Andrew Bruce Boa who played General Rieekan in the empire strikes back
I mainly know the American (he's actually Canadian) from this and as a General in the Hoth base in The Empire Strikes Back

Hi Conor, he might look familiar, particularly if you're a fan of star wars
The American was in Starwars I think, Empire Strikes Back. He probably lives in the UK
He was actually Canadian and sadly died in 2004.
Conor youre very funny today 😂
Pretty sure I saw the American guy in full metal jacket
Probably did, it was filmed in East London.
Polly and Basil were married in real life.
Yay get to see you today ☺️
Are you wearing a bra dude?

You like Polly because she's American 😂
And gorgeous to boot 😉
