John Cleese is soon to be the host of a new show coming to GB News. They have teased the first image of the 83-year-old comedian, and it looks like viewers are in for a treat. According to the channel, the show promises to be "unpredictable, engaging, informative, and fun-filled" and will feature John's signature dry wit and tongue-in-cheek demeanor.
The first image of the show shows John sitting at a table with a drink in hand, talking to another man - possibly an interviewee - while a life-sized bear stands behind him. This could be a coded message that viewers should expect some surprises!
John has also given a little insight into who he's targeting with the show. He says it's for viewers who are "completely out of touch" and even warned that viewers should "be prepared to be shocked". He's previously commented that when he was on the BBC, he wouldn't get five minutes into the show before being censored.
GB News Executive Producer Andrew Doyle has revealed that John has been given "complete creative freedom" over his show. The channel already has a number of controversial hosts such as Dan Wooton, Nigel Farage, and Laurence Fox.
Ofcom has recently launched four new investigations into GB News shows over rules requiring "that due impartiality is preserved on matters of major political or industrial controversy, or those relating to current public policy". They have stated that they will work to conclude their investigations as swiftly as possible.
John has been in some hot water recently when he asked Australian TV host Waleed Aly if his name was an anagram. Waleed quickly shut down the insult by replying that it was just Arabic.
GB News will be available to watch on TV and YouTube. So get ready to be shocked and entertained by John's upcoming show!
