Cleese's writing and performing abilities were apparent early on in his career, earning him success in theatre, television and radio. Cleese came to prominence when he formed part of the Monty Python comedy group that created the classic four-season series Monty Python's Flying Circus. He then went on to create the sitcom Fawlty Towers with his wife Connie Booth, which was named by the British Film Institute as the best British television series of all time in 2000. The success of Monty Python transferred to the big screen with Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Life of Brian and The Meaning of Life. Cleese has been involved in films and television including television ads, guest appearances on TV shows and films including A Fish Called Wanda, Rat Race, Die Another Day and the final three Shrek films.
Memorable quotes / jokes
"If God did not intend for us to eat animals, then why did he make them out of meat?"
Monty Python and the Holy Grail -
French Soldier / Taunter (Cleese) : I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
