Michael on Rove by matineeidyll on 5 November 2007 9:28am

Some of the Aussies would know that Michael made an appearance on popular talk show Rove last night. It was a wonderfully entertaining interview involving (amongst other things) turning underwear inside out, polished elephant turds and Michael's confession that he would turn gay for David Attenborough.

I'll be putting the video up on YouTube soon, for the international fans to enjoy - watch this space!

Oh lovely! I'll be definitely waiting news for that! Who wouldn't turn gay for David Attenborough? :)

"Who wouldn't turn gay for David Attenborough?" Not me - but Johnny Depp would be a different thing all together...

I didn't see the interview but I heard that Michael made a comment about Rove's being married, something along the lines of "oh, you know, you're married". Unfortunately, Michael, understandably, must have been unaware that Rove's wife, Belinda Emmett, passed away on 11/11/2006.

Have at!

Michael did indeed make a comment about Rove being married. Whoops! Belinda died from complications relating to bone cancer in 2006. I was waiting to see Rove's reaction, but there wasn't one, just a short giggle.

But anyway, it's a marvellous interview!

Bwahhhaaaaahaaaa ! This is absolutely totally solid golden classic Michael Palin interview. Thank you so much for putting this up, I love this kind of TV stuff.
