John Cleese Retracts Controversial Comments about Eric Idle - Says It Was All a Joke

John Cleese has backtracked on his recent incendiary comments about Monty Python co-star Eric Idle, claiming it was all in jest.

John Cleese har nu trukket sine kontroversielle kommentarer om Eric Idle tilbage og hævder, at det hele blot var en spøg. Efter at have skabt røre på de sociale medier med udtalelser om at 'hade' sin Python-kollega, har Cleese nu ændret kurs og undskyldt for eventuel misforståelse. Den længevarende strid mellem de to Monty Python-stjerner ser ud til at blive afblæst med Cleese's seneste udtalelser om, at sandheden endelig begynder at komme frem.

Eric Idle, der blev en berømthed som en del af Monty Python-gruppen og med filmen 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail' fra 1975, har måttet arbejde hårdt for sin tilværelse ifølge en kilde. Sammen med John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin og andre skabte Idle uforglemmelige karakterer og skrev nogle af de mest ikoniske sketcher i komediehistorien. Deres samarbejde har inspireret generationer af komikere og skabt et legendarisk eftermæle inden for britisk humor.
