Just got word in that John Cleese has a new TV gig, with a show on GB News coming soon.
John Cleese joining @GBNEWS is a real coup for the channel. Onwards and upwards.https://t.co/PoY6vKN0z1

“John will have complete creative freedom to have the conversations he wants to have with the people who interest him most.
“Like John himself, it will be far from predictable.”
The news channel is available on all notable UK TV platforms (Sky, Virgin Media, Freesat & full service Freeview transmitters)
It also streams online on their website, and through their YouTube Channel.
Would John Cleese return to the BBC?
“Not on your nelly” because “I wouldn’t get five minutes into the first show before I’d been cancelled or censored”.
Instead, this great British comedy legend is joining @GBNEWS.
The right call, sir.
