  1. In 1979, #MontyPython released their epic #film "Monty Python's Life of Brian": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_of_

    An absolute must-see from my perspective!

    In November that year, there was a BBC TV discussion with religious beliefers with #JohnCleese and #MichaelPalin: youtube.com/watch?v=ZYMpObbt2rs

    It's interesting to watch in retrospect if you want to spend the 55min.

    However, the greatest answer to that - in case you've seen the discussion - is youtube.com/watch?v=asUyK6JWt9U which is a parody of this discussion with #RowanAtkinson (and others). 🤣

    Edit: about the original interview: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malcolm_

  2. I mean it's not really that surprising , is it?

    The guy plays narcissistic nutters so well.....because he IS one!

    Kinda like how John Cleese could play the idiotic bigot Basil Fawlty so well....

  3. Oioioi, @Mickft. Go easy, Mick.

    Nothing I wrote is "untrue", let alone "simply untrue".

    I didn't say #LibDem policy had changed. I said they seemed uninterested in STV. I stand by that. Big difference between manifesto mention and campaign headline.

    In the 1980s theAlliance / #LibDems campaigned heavily on electoral reform. They had #JohnCleese do a good video on #STV: youtu.be/0qWDPauV_p4.

    Nothing like that in the 2020s. Little mention since the #FibDem #AV defeat in 2011.

  4. It’s not pining, it’s passed on. This parrot is no more. It has ceased to be. It’s expired and gone to meet its maker. This is a late parrot.

    It’s a stiff. Bereft of life, it rests in peace. If you hadn’t nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies.

    It’s rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-parrot.
