John cleese is Q in numerous bind films
OrdinaryDave
He still looks youngish with dark hair in A Fish Called Wanda. I suggested earlier Jess might have seen him as Q in James Bond.

John Cleese is in a fish called wander with Jamie Lee Curtis, maybe that is where you have seen the older him
David Cole
Lee Mack said in his autobiography that making John Cleese laugh like that was the proudest moment of his career.

Martin Clunes is a legend, Men Behaving Badly is a comedy classic!
Regular Viewer Bunty Hoven
Why-de-why would you do that to people!

Just as a bit of explanation re. the blue coat thing for the rest of the world: Back in the 1950s (before holidays abroad became the norm) Brits flocked to what are known as Holiday Camps - kind of a cross between a gated community and Stalag 13 - where the camp hosts could be recognised by their brightly coloured blazers - Red for Butlins, Blue for Pontins and Yellow for Maplins*. Holiday camps were a great way for actors, singers and comedians to get their Equity card - Equity being the UK actor's union and without the "Card" finding work on stage or screen was nearly impossible. *If you understand this "Maplins" reference, congratulations, you are without doubt old and British - reward yourself by typing Paul Shane You've Lost That Loving Feeling into the YouTube search bar

Lee Mack is the quickest wit in British comedy. He ALWAYS has the funny rebuttals and answers to everything, and he has the delivery to back it up to. This story is funny anyway, but his delivery and timing makes it perfect
Adam Theaker
All 3 guests in brilliant sitcoms. Men behaving badly, fawlty towers and not going out plus Graham Norton in father Ted
Emma Edwards
Love this clip 🤣
James

Martin Clunes is the other guy...When I first watched him as a youngster I didn't like him because of his big ears for some reason but as I got older I liked his funny ears and he was funnily brilliant in Men Behaving badly.
OrdinaryDave
Jess may well be thinking of John Cleese as Q - the man with the gadgets - in the James Bond movies. He was at his funniest when he had terrible psychological demons to fight, before the comedy was therapised out of him, IMO.

Martin Clunes is the fella in the middle and he's been in some pretty great British comedies.
Static CentreHalf
That's a great shout.
Mark Rudd
Martin clunes (the man in the middle) he was and still is loved. Made one of the best programs about called “men behaving badly”. Worth a watch. Although it doesn’t really get going till season 2
Stephen Reid
You both will get the Winston,s Graham Norton joke in episode hard nuts in still game when it comes.
Static CentreHalf
Fantastic! I was hoping you'd react to this. Two of your current faves.
Terrahawk
That's Martin Clunes probably best known for Men Behaving Badly. In Harry Potter John Cleese was the ghost Nearly Headless Nick.

Red chair stories
Robert McMillan
I hope you get around to Greg Davies on the Graham Norton show telling a story to Ryan Gosling, Jodie Foster and Russell Crowe. It's incredible
Christian Rolfe
Lots of good clips from that show
