John Cleesee, best known from Monty Python is in this funny commercial comparing a portable computer with a fish – “as it would be quite unfair to compare it with another computer”.
“the fish weights 22 pounds which makes it extremely portable. It will fit snugly on the passenger seat in your car or when travelling by train in the luggage room. By coincidence, the computer weights exactly the same. So nothing to choose between them so far”. And so on. I think these funny computer commercials with John Cleese are my favourite commercials of all time. Both because I love him, but also because the geeky me enjoys to see these old school computers. As far as Im concerned he has been involved in five commercials, in which four has been for these computers and one for Pepsi. All of them will be added to this site in the short future. Hope you will enjoy them as much as I did.
Oh man, love it! I just can’t get what exactly he says right before he has that laughing fit.
I love John Cleese’s voice. He sounds so funny, and he makes this video awesome. Thanks for this find!
This is a really hilarious clip. Will try to look for all commercials john cleese’s has done in this blog. Really funny voice
LOL, so that’s what they usually referred as portable in 80′s, it really not quite portable enough now. But, the part when they compared it to fish because no computer can be compared with is really hilarious, LOL.
Thanks
