    I love how often Cleese’s sketches end in him shooting someone. He keeps up the character on Twitter nowadays too, having recently called someone a “dago idiot” for PERFECTLY JUSTIFIED REASONS.

    This is gold. Two of the greatest comedians ever on the stage together. I would literally have killed to be able to see this. I never knew that they collaborated in stand up and to find this on yt is like I died and went to heaven. I nearly died choking from laughing too much. Best recommendation from CZcams that I will ever receive and almost impossible to top. All my Christmas’ and birthdays have come at once.
