EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to November 1977, as the legendary comedian and actor John Cleese graces Newcastle with his presence. Pictured here during the launch of his book "Fawlty Towers". Cleese's charismatic smile hints at a man who is far from the infamous Basil Fawlty character he brought to life on screen. The question arises: Is there truly a Basil Fawlty lurking deep within John Cleese? The answer, according to the star himself, is an emphatic "Not at all". As one of the masterminds behind the iconic British sitcom, Cleese effortlessly portrayed the bumbling hotel owner with impeccable comedic timing. However, off-screen, he proves that his talent lies in versatility rather than embodying any particular character. This snapshot captures not only Cleese's undeniable charm but also showcases a glimpse into an era long gone – the vibrant 1970s. With its core202 style and nostalgic elements like pointing gestures and parking meters in view, it serves as a time capsule for fans of both comedy and history alike. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints' dedication to capturing moments that transcend time itself, this photograph allows us to reflect on John Cleese's remarkable career while appreciating him as more than just Basil Fawlty. It reminds us that true actors possess an ability to transform themselves completely while leaving their most memorable characters behind them.
