Graham Chapman/John Cleese for me
Or Terry Gilliam for always ending up being a woman or something rubbish.
Palin
I saw him in soho
it was exciting
I like John Cleeeeeese, he only comes up to your kneeeeees.
Michael Palin's your MUMS favourite.
Chapman or Jones.
i don't really have
a favourite.
palin easily
just for the "crucifixion? good", scene alone
that was outstanding
"one cross each, line on the left"
and the "biggus diccus"
"welease woderick!"
zxcvbnm will be loving this
sexybum loves everything
he's such a slag
.
Palin,Idle and Jones. Are the best three...
Palin
all the way.
tho
Jones is underrated.
He really is.
No one can play a woman as well as him.
Although full marks to Cleese/Idle for ageing the worst.
i think you mean chapman
oh no
i think
Chapman has aged the worst.
damn
beaten to it
right in your face!
JINX! anyway
Can't decide
Acting-wise Palin, one of the best comic actors I've ever seen, incredible range, shame he's stopped acting. Then again, if I had the choice between going to the Himalayas or sitting in a caravan in Pinewood waiting to be called to the set, I understand the reasons.
Chapman: inspired lunacy, you'll never know exactly what going on inside his mind: murder is an extroverted suicide! (I am quoting, I'm such an anorak)
yeah michael palin obvs
"he just came right up to me and CURED me!"
so little love for Cleese
i say John Cleese.
john cleese is good.
and NO love for eric idle? eric idle > john cleese.
They are all
equally brilliant. There's lots of Monty Python talk/programmes on at the moment. Why is this?
Also, just in case you missed it, you need to see John Cleese's eulogy form Graham Chapman's memorial service:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsHk9WC7fnQ
I'm
actually on the verge of tears watching that, I don't even know why. It's Eric's sog thats done it...
"Why is this?"
Because Palin's publishing his Python diaries.
