Never mentioned this ever, I policed central London, an 89year old, attempted a three point turn,but unfortunately smashed into 4/5 cars !. One being Eric idles ! He came up to me, I explained about the old lady, he turned quick as a flash and said, ‘NOW, THATS THE OLDEST JOYRIDER IVE EVER SEEN’, his car was written off ! He still found humour, it was hilarious !
Usually the bow and exit is a high note. Guess they wanted to nail that one first in case they bombed later? Or in case the audience left? Because HAH beat them to it!
Amazing how as soon as they start reading that skit, Idle's voice and demeanor immediately becomes 40 years younger. He jumps right back into that old Python characterization.
You should watch his stand up if you haven't; "The Alimony Tour".. He's mostly telling stories about himself. Its one of my favorite stand ups because he's so naturally funny. He isn't TRYING HARD like most "modern" comedians
Lars Nilsson Great profile pic. I always liken Che to Hitler. In fact Che has some very extreme hateful evil psychotic quotes which as a person makes him worse than Hitler (a subjective view of course). I would imagine some "peaceful" communists punching you for waring a Hitler shirt, Nazi shirt, or something similar, yet those same assholes praise Che, Stalin, the Soviet Union especially, and Mao!?!? Like wtf? Nazis were bad but look at the SU, what they did to the Ukraine etc. Nazi flags = Soviet Union flags, Che shirts = Hitler shirts.
I love it when people like you get their idiocies out early. Makes it so much easier to tell that one should ignore every moronic syllable. Nice, efficient. Thank you.
Cute. But see, cutting down a person, particularly a leader, into one dimension, particularly such a one-dimensional claim as "mass murderer", in order to 'win' shows merely that you're a sad little child with absolutely no concept of the real world. Poor little you. Do you deny that Batista was a mass-murdering dictator with the benevolent support of the US, to adress Ché? Or Chiang Kai-Shek, Marcos Pérez Jiménez, Tito, Ferdinand Marcos to mention but a handful of OTHER US-supported dictators, or for that matter....Stalin? Oooops. Didn't think of that, did you?
I love hearing them giggle at the beginning during the fake out exit. just reminds you they're still mischievous little kids at heart all these years later.
+hannahthecritter All depends on what someone who is talking about something more serious/sobering is talking about, but yeah, this kind of conversation is therapeudic, informative and fun. :)
One thing is for sure, im from America and over here we are so glad you all got together because Monty python is one of the funniest shows of all time, and English humor is absolutely needed over here, i can promise you that, we love it.
This was a fantastic, historic evening and I was happy to be there. These two are brilliant comedy geniuses who continue to be just as witty and insightful today as they were on the day they first started writing and performing. Thank you, Mr. Cleese and Mr. Idle for all the great laughs you've given us for all these years. I've learned a lot from you two.
One thing they both had, in spades, was the deadpan stare; other comedic masters like Jack Benny, Oliver Hardy, Buster Keaton, et al, also had that ineffable ability
ScottishChristian That'd be difficult since Chapman was Cremated. If he hadn't been then maybe, but even so they'd have to stop him from trying to eat everyone as Zombie's tend to do if the Walking Dead is anything to go by lol :-D.
Yeah. Just some old guys talking about memories. Old people have such a nice way of telling story's, and them being funny and friends really is a cherry on top.
roger supernova What in the world does their age have to do with it? They were friends, they were funny and they were great story tellers when they were young, for goodness sake.
I never ever grow tired of listening to any of the Pythons. And the hug between them at the end of this was very touching… to see the 50 years of deep friendship between them. Thank-you gentleman for so many years of laugher and joy.
Eric Idle is amazingly funny at 71 (in 2014), but John Cleese is the one you would want on your debating team. They're both great (and Michael Palin too). Will they be fondly remembered when we, the baby boomers, have all shuffled on? I'd like to think so...
They are, and were, all very intelligent and quick. My favourite Python thing comes from Chapman when they visited Germany for the first time and tried to get into a concentration camp. Hilarious.
I have seen other conversations with John Cleese where they have read the memory sketch, but none are as good as this reading. The chemistry, delivery and timing between these two is obvious. Geniuses.
The shortness of our time on this Earth is brought into perspective when viewing legends like Idle and Cleese. Being finite can certainly have its bad points. These two should be able to live forever to entertain us lowly masses.
There is no way the Monty Python troupe would have been as successful if it wasn't for the kind of school yard mucking about friendship they have. Bouncing insults off each other. What you're seeing are two 70 year old lads having a bit of banter but the reality is they revolutionised comedy. Smart fellas. Brilliant.
2 amazing individuals who have enriched millions of people with amazing spiffy intelligent humor....John, Graham, Eric and all the other of Monty P. have made the world and little bit better then it was...I'm a atheist but i thank god for these wonderfull ppl. Thank you all...cheers...tally ho...pippip...and why is a cow flying over oO!?
Monty python had a lot of fans in the United States in the 70's, I grew up on a farm in rural Kentucky and we would get the BBC on Friday & Saturday nights on PBS and I couldn't wait to watch the next episode. It's truly wonderful to see these two wonderful people together again; thank you both for all the great comedy you've provided for so many years, long life to you both.
Such lovely old gentlemen, must say that they've brought me laughter and enjoyment for my whole 48 year old life. I am a dedicated super fan from Sweden. Pausing in the middle now to get toasted sandwhiches and white wine. Friday night in a still paralysed state of Coronia. So lovely to drop all that and enjoy these entirely magic gentlemen.
@@RR-uj2vx Well it's apparently on every home for our elderly which will be shameful for the entire future but our normal lives hasn't been affected much really. Corona is by nature shit, of course.
One of the best marriages ever. These two still cracking each other up after so many years. Just imagining them "working with" the whole Month Python bunch, and Marty Feldman and Dudley Moore...I'll never watch the reruns in the same way again. Thank you to the poster!
2 of the funniest people ever! Their comedy is just effortless. Also the obvious love and admiration they have for each other on display here is just so endearing.
John Cleese is usually the most recognizable of the Pythons, but I always thought Eric was the funniest... he was just very good at taking ridiculous lines and performing them as if they were completely normal.
+Splotch the Cat-Thing I have to admit I underrate him. I think sharing the screen with John Cleese and to a slightly lesser extent Michael Pailin caused me to overlook him. That's a tough crowd to stand out in. After listening to this, it's obvious he has an easy quick wit and natural gift for comedy. He even seems more able to ad lib funny lines here than Cleese.
Hard to pick a favourite Python, but to me Idle comes across as the one who enjoyed it the most. He seems like a person who is always in the mood for thinking up or doing something silly. And he has written some brilliant stuff, not least when it comes to songs. He's a genius.
I found it funny that Eric Idle was supposed to interview John Cleese for his new book but it turned into a conversation between the two. I think that a conversation with Tim Conway and Harvey Korman would go about the same.
Gosh, aren't they great! It is rare that I laugh out loud but I did! Even after all this time, they were great together. I could listen to them all day .blessings all!😃
I think it's incredible how well Eric Idle's voice continues to hold up. John Cleese is 100% sounding like an old man, but Eric Idle sounds like he has for the last 50 years, with just the _slightest_ of slurring (which, I mistly think might just be him speaking naturally rather than from a script.)
"Always look on the bright side of life" with the quick return to the stage and unforgettable conversation between our unique comedians/performers. Stay safe everyone!
That was lovey to watch, absolute living legends who have had a massive impact on me and all my mates. R.I.P. Tim Brooke-Taylor, you will be sorely missed
I won't miss TB-T much. He was the worst performer on ISIRTA, the Goodies and Clue. Nothing against him personally but always thought he was a lesser talent got lucky.
My wife bought me tickets to see them for my 50th birthday in Victoria British Columbia. It was quite something to see them in the flesh. My god they are actual people!
A perfect interview.. this is genius.. modern hosts/organisers: watch this and please learn.. because the younger ones run it like a quiz show.. question after question no humor
"So the Americans said we want to buy your show and we said what do you mean? And they answered "We want to buy the format" I and I said but we don't have a fucking format and Eric idle said "Shut up we do have a format and It's for sale." LOL
"I apologize unreservedly. ... I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future." Indeed.
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL, calm discussion with spikes of incredible Hilarity. I'm so grateful for having watched them as a boy on television, having heard through the children's naughty grapevine they were Phenomenal. So joyously beautiful.
Just goes to show why they are so brilliant. I notice they're happy to compliment other talented people whose work they like. Classy. Loved listening to this and hearing their opinions and stories, and the random comedy just from being together, playing off each other.
OMG I so very much enjoyed this they all will be sorely missed when they are gone. Cherish them while there still here Turn your kids on to these guys they will thank you for it
After all these years Eric can still make John wheeze with laughter. That's what it's all about.
"THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT! IF ONLY PEOPLE WOULD-"
Maru Please, please, good people. I'm in haste! Who lives in that castle?
@@Leon_der_Luftige No-one lives there. We don't have a lord.
@@Leon_der_Luftige mol
but his laughter was based on his own feeling about Eric but not about what Eric actually said. the unsaid is British humour
I love the fact that Eric still makes John laugh.
But what about Dinsdale?
Never mentioned this ever, I policed central London, an 89year old, attempted a three point turn,but unfortunately smashed into 4/5 cars !. One being Eric idles ! He came up to me, I explained about the old lady, he turned quick as a flash and said, ‘NOW, THATS THE OLDEST JOYRIDER IVE EVER SEEN’, his car was written off ! He still found humour, it was hilarious !
Great story. Thanks for sharing it.
Was Dinsdale in the passenger seat?
This sounds like his role in National Lampoon's European Vacation.
😆 Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.
Was she a member of hell's grannies?
And now we've lost Terry Jones, rest in peace dear man.
We also lost Neil Innes as well :,(
Out of respect for Terry I will forget Dinsdale for now
Who else only meant to watch a couple minutes but found themselves watching the whole thing...
Swift Games
This is like my 4th video on the duo, it's 4am, just starting this and I don't think I'll sleep tonight.
Swift Games i like the way they healthily disrespect certain protocols.. like receiving applause at the beginning and then walking off the stage 😮
OMG ... I just did that very thing!
Me
I'm certainly one.
Hearing them giggle after they immediately left the stage again; priceless!
I knew they were going to do that too, somehow.
Usually the bow and exit is a high note.
Guess they wanted to nail that one first in case they bombed later? Or in case the audience left? Because HAH beat them to it!
That was Dinsdale laughing
The beginning when they run around back stage giggling is so adorable!!
jsilence418 took the words right out of my mouth
Right, no more Dinsdale reply's for today, I am of in search of the real Dinsdale!
Amazing how as soon as they start reading that skit, Idle's voice and demeanor immediately becomes 40 years younger. He jumps right back into that old Python characterization.
Where the fuck is Dinsdale?
@@stevebrindle1724 yyyyyyyyyyu YT YT yyy YTgu
Comedic genius! The world is a much better place because of these men. RIP Graham.
love seeing John looks at Eric, its really like a big brother looking at his younger brother. They both are genius. A treasure.
Dinsdale was the real genius!
John Cleese is so astoundingly good at telling stories. ANYTHING he talks about is tremendously funny!
Olle Rönn One of the few people to be able to make the phonebook funny I'm sure :)
Olle Rönn Agreed-wish I had a tenth of his charisma!
+GBatT
If I ever get a phonebook, he'd be the first one I call to help me read it!
You should watch his stand up if you haven't; "The Alimony Tour".. He's mostly telling stories about himself. Its one of my favorite stand ups because he's so naturally funny. He isn't TRYING HARD like most "modern" comedians
Except for Dinsdale!
I can listen to these guys all day.

what grand old men of comedy they are; erudite, witty, and eminently entertaining
... and they wouldnt be allowed to "start" today with their kind of humor, because we have political "correctness" now.
Why do you say that? A lot of modern comedians celebrate bad taste and those brutal roasts are some of the biggest comedy events of the year.
we have people who are too stupid to understand the clever jokes these guys did as well now
"erudite"...much like the Piranha brothers; Doug and Dinsdale.
Wane
I love hearing them giggle at the beginning during the fake out exit. just reminds you they're still mischievous little kids at heart all these years later.
30 seconds in, and it's already an elegant riot. God, I love these men.
That was one hour and 17 minutes of pure joy. Thank you.
Absolutely hilarious, I managed to follow at x1.25 speed. Bit shorter and no problem to follow. 😊🤣👌
I love the ease of these two men, and the history behind them. This is funny, and real, and brilliant.
It seemed like 10 minutes.
It could have been better if Dinsdale was involved!
They're the only reason I would watch a video this long of people just talking.
+hannahthecritter
You are totally correct.
+hannahthecritter All depends on what someone who is talking about something more serious/sobering is talking about, but yeah, this kind of conversation is therapeudic, informative and fun. :)
I love biographies and learning about people, basically these kind of things are all I watch on You Tube.
alexziggyful any suggestions? Did you watch something as good as this? Hope you see the message, because it is one year old xD
You must be deep AF!
Two giants of comedy not on stage for 10 minutes and already cracking the audience and each other up.
I love how relaxed yet aware of the audience these two are
One thing is for sure, im from America and over here we are so glad you all got together because Monty python is one of the funniest shows of all time, and English humor is absolutely needed over here, i can promise you that, we love it.
My first Monty Pythons Flying Circus. Late 70s i think?!%&@# crs

These two should have a regular chat show
No they should zombify Graham and restart the Monty Pythons. Imagine all the cannibalism sketches a zombie Graham would be part of...

"Always look on the bright side of life" with the quick return to the stage and unforgettable conversation between our unique comedians/performers. Stay safe everyone!
John Cleese's mannerisms as an older man are so much like my late grandfather's that his interviews have a new resonance for me now.
Unbelievable how groundbreaking and brilliant Monty Python's humour continues to be after all these years. Love these guys so much!
Brilliant! Just 2 old friends sitting and talking about their lives and careers together. Been a Python fan for over 40 years. Great stuff!
Lovely guys. Could have watched that for some more hours, easily.
Seeing how much they both adore each other is worth the watch. The hilarious jokes are just icing on the cake.
Graham Chapman dressed as a carrot for a nuke debate show - That's the Monty Python spirit par excellence.
I saw these two in Australia when they came down. They were brilliant together!
