charon 4,943 Posted January 26, 2016 Actually, just heard an interview with him before he started. He immediately had to climb 10,000 feet when he left the Coast, and that almost makes him a pilot nevermind a mountaineer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,055 Posted January 26, 2016 John Cleese has said on Twitter that some comedy bloke called Tony Buffery has died. Can't link cos in bed on the phone. The Pete Best of Monty Python? He was the chap who started off with what became the Python lot at uni, but swiftly decided academia was a better pursuit. They replaced him with a far more famous person: Gilliam perhaps? I'm not much of a Python buff. Think it was Graham Chapman who took his place. Buffery seems to have been in Twice A Fortnight, I've seen a clip of The Battle Of Hastings on YouTube but can't work out who he is, William The Conqueror's servant perhaps?
