John Cleese is a great listener. Not constantly me me me.

I love this format! Inspired lunacy and down to earth chat!

I love the set, the cats ❤, the maître d', the nuns, the guests… the whole thing was fantastic. This segment was the best but I could easily have watched another hour!🎉

awesome show

loving this format of presenting serious conversations in this jovial manner

John cleese reaction when the server pushed the cat off the table 🤣👏

Love the nuns knitting in the back ground and the 2 gentlemen drinking in the 'Pub'.

studiously different..... nice to see Cleese as interviewer all the same .... could develop nicely.... slow, relaxed ...

Bizarre. I love it.

John cleese is a crazy cat lady

All this, and Piers Morgan who clearly knew all about what was going on, has just continued to have a successful television career as if nothing happened.

Happy Sundays 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧👍

Wow. I’m American and I get the humor of the cats and the atmosphere. ITS ENGLISH HUMOR PEOPLE!

Class show.

absolute fantastic interview. Well done CT and JC.

What a genius idea for a show

This was a great watch this programme. At last, a balanced view of the destructive power of the tabloids. Let's have more of this!

Loving the cats! Loving the maitre d! Loving the guests! Loving the decor! And ofcourse the host! Listing all the great points but not necessarily in the right order, so keep more coming please.

I thought of hacking as horrible in terms of the intrusion into privacy. I didn’t really think of the point Chris Tarrant made, of how it can affect a close personal relationship, shattering trust and potentially destroying friendships which is possibly worse. Just as an aside, having typed Tarrant it auto corrected to Tarantino and after deleting I-n-o the kind autocorrect offered me Chris Tyrant!!

I would be a better man if I met the likes of John Cleese, more than just a comedian to me~mentor maybee...

John Cleese drinking tea with Chris Tarrant surrounded by nuns, bowler hatted business men, cats and a stuffed weasel in a castle is still not as weird as giving Boris Johnson a job.

Great stuff GBN

I like the atmospheres, lol so Cleesey

Is this a regular segment that John Cleese does? I hope there is more of this. He also needs to get hold of Rowen Atkinson and them both bounce some ideas off each other specially since they both believe that comidy is under attack. Faulty Towers is still some of the best comidy ever.

Love the show and love the set. 🇬🇧

His reaction 01:15, hilarious! Like the Python days.

Someone should show this clip to Brian Harvey. He’s been shouting about this for years. GB news won’t have Brian on though, he speaks too much truth. God bless Brian. ❤

Nice props.......

An excellent programme

Great stuff ❤

Brilliant

Love it

Crimes Against Humanity Confirmed Again, Scorpion King.

I don’t quite understand why the press pursue them. What are they trying to find? They’re just TV presenters. What could possibly be interesting?

Great chat and love the bonkers set

This is sooooo well done.

It really boggles the mind that journalists could think “let’s hack their phones” and think they would get away with it. Such scum

This is definitely my favourite thing to watch by a country mile - wonderful stuff!

Brilliant 👏👏👏So well presented you could watch this format all day .Wonder what the nuns wete knitting 🤔

What a brilliant interview!

great interview

Mirror Editor Piers Morgan bragged about hacking phones and then denied it on oath

that is ace! What a brilliant show!

LOL the 'wtf' face Cleese makes at 1:16 then carries on

I’m not keen on the weird set, but Cleese is a very good interviewer.

Why are nuns drinking in the studio pub ?

This is a dream team combo, good job GB News

I think we need laws that limit the media. The only people who should have their private lives scrutinised are criminals and politicians, which are the same thing at the moment.

That set... genius.

Very interesting

The only journalists that I respect are war correspondents and I only mean the ones that embed themselves within a unit and experience the horror of war.

Cleese has really sold out ! GB News ffs !

i worked for a very local advertorial newspaper for over 20years ..(in advertising.) Even at that level.. editors and reporters were scum!..twisting every story to make a headline with no care or consideration to the people involved...and I told them so every week...but they could not give a flying f###

Kyyyaaaaarrrr! Coulda swore we heard John introduce him as "One of the most gifted old bastards." Must be the endless ROAR of canon ball fire. Hearing certainly isn't what it used to bee.

John Cleese is a "class act" and a fantastic interviewer! Compare John Cleeses exemplerary conduct with the bratty bombastic behavior of Piers Morgan and you can see a massive difference. Piers Morgan does not conduct "interviews" because he talks over the other person, repeatedly interrupts the other person, hijacks the conversation and does 98% of the talking so the other person cannot get a word in edgewise. Why on earth Piers Morgan is even allowed to work as a UK journalist baffles me since he was guilty of TREASON against the Crown when he was editor of the News of the World and the phone hacking scandal included hacking into the royal families cell phones. Piers Morgan also committed TREASON against the Crown when he faked staged photos of Muslim actors dressed up as victiims of beatings and abuse from British actors dressed up in fake UK military uniforms - all the charges of treason were dropped and now he is a Big Gas Bag on UK morning talk show television. This was such a delightful interview with John Cleese and Chris Tarrant - the three cats, the stoat, the knitting nuns and the blokes playing cards and drinking beer HILARIOUS - great clip and loved every minute of it - I wish John Cleese had a regular tv show here in the USA

100% Correct. The practices of these tabloids was a disgrace.

It is a joy to see Mr Cleese today. Global treasure. If it is fly on the wall viewing in a crazy cosy pub then a bit of background noise would not go astray. Not sure about the cats.. perhaps they could go astray too? Cheers

Ah that corny joke reminds me of my Dear Departed Old Man. One’s Weasely distinguished and the other’s stoatally different😂

I’m new to this channel but I’m intrigued by the presence of nuns and people drinking beer all over the set…..

First rule of Anti-phone-hacking.....change your PIN...... All "hackers" have to do is try your voicemail with half a dozen different standard PINs then bingo, access to your voicemails, maybe more these days I don't know, but the majority of the high-profile hacks were as simple as that. How those charged with the security of their clients, whether Royal, or other high-profile people didn't insist on that as the absolute basic is mind-blowing.......

But the people who have been in the shit for so long that they don't smell it anymore used to smell it but decided to get used to it, and that's why there's no excuse. In fact, once they get used to it, it is a wonderful excuse to feign unawareness. Those who lie to themselves lie to others, and that is rude deception.

Oh my god the cats are hallarious

I recall Michael cashman saying over ride Stormont introduce abortion. In Northern Ireland “It should be the same for the whole of the U.K.” Then the same sentence said it was wrong to use section 35 to stop The Scottish Parliament to introduce self ID for trans there Surely not having self aiD in England wales NI ,it should be the same for the rest of the U.K.

Hacking is still going on...world scale...listening into mobile phone conversations...we all know that as soon as we hang up...information on the conversation is suddenly on Google or social media.

We can have cats ? no one said we could have cats b4 :)

Such a weird setup. Great conversation though.

he's confused about the cats on the table but everything else makes sense?

Still think Tiswas was his best, and closely followed surprisingly by his Extreme Rail journeys

Love John Cleese ❤

Love CT. His Capital Breakfast Show was the best ever. Always cheered me up on those cold winter mornings.

Tizwaz and Monty python … legends !!!

PS: well...No comments.

A gentlemans' club in an old castle, where the patrons are old gents, nuns, and long-haired cats. Let's put some fun stuff in the mix, too: get John Campbell on as the next guest.

Spot the Lewis Schaffer

Love Lewis Schaffer.

Sad one this week . Chris didnt court fame so it seems beyond unfair with this massive intrusion .

Is this a dream?

Great interview show with John. But Chris saying there was no famous people when he first started? Hmm no idea what that means? Can't be talking about the US, so if he means Britain in the mid 1970s just recall an almost unlimited list of famous Brits - Joanna Lumley, Roger Moore, Patrick Moore, Peter Sellers, Glenda Jackson, Peter Cushing, Terry Wogan, Dudley Moore, Edward Woodward, Tom Baker, Peter Wyngarde, Brian Blessed, Lulu, Joan Collins, David Frost, Sally James, George Best, David Attenborough and so on. Typical Chris really.

That’s not a stoat though 😀

Would love to know where this is filmed & why a tortoise?

Interesting conversation. Serious stuff. Don't get the point of the bizarre setting. Leave Python out of it.

I clicked like for the story, I comment for the kitties. That's cheating sir John

4:53 I'm sorry am I going mad or is that Jordan Peterson?

What a random duo 😂

What’s the point of the cats and random people sitting around!? 😂

Great show Mr. Cleese. Loved it. But the irrelevant cats and are just too much of a distraction and rather demeaned the seriousness of Chris Tarrant's emotive account.

Cats are like marmite 😉

i can tell john cleese miss the britain from his youth

Why the fake nuns inntje background?

A bit strange why the people in the background?

You now have an alcoholic cat which will have attend AA meetings!

Nuns in the background! Hilarious. I think that one of them was a guy!

oh come on bloody GBnews you are a right wing rag, you keep putting stuff like this on and now I am going to have to subscribe.... and what does that make me?

I have every sympathy with anyone who's had their phone hacked, it goes without saying. But the interview does muddy the waters between phone hacking and legitimate celebrity reporting, which we might find distasteful but is still legal in a free country. Anyone who clicks on the Daily Mail sidebar of shame (me included) contributes to this. The idea that editors are "kind of anonymous", as John says, is nonsense because their names are printed in the newspaper or easily found online. Editors were never supposed to be famous or celebs, in any case. That some of them are famous is because they became guests on TV shows, such as Kelvin Mackenzie. Others like Rebecca Wade stayed out of the limelight. Saying all of that, this clip has made me want to watch John's show - looks very entertaining.

lol waiter becomes cat referee :D so good

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Cleese what a boring man..

Ditch the props. Unnecessary. Distracting.

Those cats are annoying.

Hate cats.
