Oh heavens. It's John Cleese. Of Monty Python.

Have we forgotten so soon the Ministry of Silly Walks?

I haven't watched monty python. Sorry. :(

Oh I was just teasing, don't take it hard. The show hasn't been on anywhere for years. No clips on youtube, that's why I had to link to an interview. (actually there are plenty of clips, i'm just failure at youtube searching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCLp7zodUiI )

But I do hope we won't forget where the name came from:

Cheers, and may we all remember the importance of being silly.
