Interview: John Cleese On His Return To Sitcom In Hold The Sunset

What drew you (John Cleese) to make your first BBC sitcom since Fawlty Towers 44 years ago?

The producer Humphrey Barclay is an old friend of mine. We’ve known each other since 1961 when we were both in the Cambridge Footlights. He came to me and said he had found this great new script called Hold the Sunset by Charles McKeown and asked if I would be interested in doing it. I read it and loved it. It was the best script I’d read in a hundred years! So of course, I said yes immediately.
