    Anyone else spotted John Cleese's reprise of a classic Monty Python sketch in Specsaver's latest TV advert?

    Classic! Laughing

      Brilliant!  But doesn't it highlight how John Cleese has aged?  The same could be said for us all though if we had films of ourselves over the years! Laughing

      It's when I look in the mirror I see the change Sad mentally I'm the same. Was watching a programme last night with 'Nigel Planer' from the
      'Young Ones', and he has also changed almost beyond recognition, another of my favourite TV shows.

      I wonder how much that has cost. No wonder the price of spectacles.

      Saw it for the first time last night really enjoyed it I'm a big fan of Fawlty Towers so what a great idea to imitate a classic sketch.

      ...I would think like any advert it will be a small amount of the overall marketing budget,there is to much competion on the high street these days ,to not be competitive,and it is good as most of theirs are
