Awkward chatter with John Cleese

What have the Romans ever done for us

He is taking the piss

This explains his twitter activity He's lost the fucking plot

The problem is, he's intelligent, which makes things really difficult on that sofa.

He despises the BBC and everything they stand for. He is politely sticking up two fingers at them. They tried to cancel Fawlty Towers.

He was playing with them. One of the reasons that his comedy is successful is that disrupts the norm and makes people shift uneasily in their seats at times.

He’s having a laugh.

They were obviously shitting themselves in case he said something offensive.😂 The tension looked crazy

why did they platform this cunt given the state of his tweets?

“What’s your name young man?” “Jeffrey” “Yes I met a man called Jeffrey once before. Think his last name was Einstein or something like that. Wanted me to go to this island of his. Never did take him up on the offer. Seemed like a nice fellow.”

He's absolutely taking the piss in his humorous way, as anybody from his era & generation would get, and most normal non-woke people will understand, nothing awkward about that at all.

What a class act. He knows a set lunatic left when he’s one.

It’s just sarcasm. Have we forgotten that the British are sarcastic? Or, is that not allowed these days either??

He's toying with them, the only ones being awkward were the hosts who didn't have a clue because they've already decided what they think of him due to being sheeple and lacking critical thinking.

that is what we call "top trolling"

He's been a fucking comedian for his entire life. He still is.

John Cleese treating The One Show hosts like strangers at a bus stop while name checking Roman Polanski is the most British thing that will happen all year. The faces on Roman and Lauren are pure trauma.😭😭😭😭

Asking celebrities/tv personalities who they are on their own crappy show is poking fun at them. Taking the piss. Having a laugh at their expense. It seems to have gone over the heads of most people here.

Awkward for them because he's asking for their names! Who the fuck are ya basically. John Cleese is a national hero and we love him ❤️

No. He has no clue who the other people are (neither does anyone else) and knows it’s junk (which it is) and he knows it and if you know he knows it, you’ll find it funny.

This magazine show has some piss-poor hosts who struggle to put guests at ease. Also, Mel Brooks famously took the piss out of the format a few years ago when he appeared.

Reminds me of-

Not awkward for John Cleese he knows exactly how to take the proverbial 🤔😂

Only awkward for people who don’t understand his humour.

All these ageist comments arguing dementia. When it's equally likely he arrived and noone bothered to introduce him to the hosts when he likely had no clue who they were.

God..... Two of the worst TV presenters Ive ever seen....

Can’t you see he’s sending those two up and having a laugh…surely you should know Cleeses character by now?! 🙄🙄

First class lesson in how to take the piss 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

John Cleese is toying with them. You either don’t understand the humour or it’s an ageist reason you don’t get the joke.

He knows exactly what he’s doing

RUBBISH. He is a fucking legend. Amazing story that they needed £3mm to fund the making of Life of Brian and couldn’t get any support. Palin called George Harrison of the Beatles and he mortgaged his house to get the money.. Amazing!

He is really taking the piss. Good for him. BBC has become a dreadful state propaganda unit.

Treating a MENSA comedian like a dementia patient. Cleese had the last laugh!
