Glad you enjoyed it!

Michael would have been a great leading man, but he said himself that he didn't like doing "Hollywood". That was his choice but it's our loss.

@@DinaraTengri Ya, in another interview he said he liked being the "off character" as it was much more fun. He was so good in a Fish Called Wanda, Cleese changed the script to make Michael the hilarious part of the story.

+Kevin Jon Davies Ha ha, yes impressive hair eh??

he looks incredibly nervous and uncomfortable. he asks the questions like an android.

if he was a Tube Station he'd be High Barnet

I don't doubt its his real hair, but it looks just a BIT like one of the 3 guys behind the toupee counter in the Ant sketch. Slightly more frightening than intended.

Na, you got it right the first time. This was the terrible American way of news reporting that made it to the UK for a while. It's a one camera shoot so the reporter gets as much screen time as he can. So when the camera is pointed to the reporter, he actually is reading the question from a card and Michael is long gone. In fact, considering how different the voice tone is in the shot, there's a chance the interviewer is asking those questions in a completely different location. I don't think Michael Palin would have the pictures of his movie up like that.

You're quite correct. This was shot single camera (film style) on location at the Python Offices in London. Our time with him was limited and did not allow for cutaway questions to be asked and recorded, as we had to vacate the office. Questions, which had to be added, were recorded elsewhere, and this happens a lot in fact. This is not American style, it's what happened in news and TV reporting from the early days of TV and still happens today (unless you enjoy 'whip-pans' from one person to the other). It's how film for cinema is shot every single day...
