Ooops, I didn't know that, thank you *very* much for telling me.

How about you telling me something more about this tail, please.

By the way I have also seen him (Cleese !!) do an australian
commercial (in fact a serie of three episodes) for an australian
snack-something. He just stands there telling that this procuct "is
jolly good" in his own 'Cleese-way', and then he leaves, but he's back
one second later saying there's still some time left, and then he
repeats that the product "is jolly good". Then he stands there looking
at his watch, when the producer tells him to hold the product up, and
so he does. End of episode one.

In the second episode he opens by telling how sorry he is, that they'd
made such a terrible commercial, but this time they have written a
much better one. He grabs in his pocket for the text, but it's gone,
he shouts "hang on" and runs out. A couple of seconds later he's back,
unfolds the paper and wants to read it, but there isn't time, the
commercial ends.

The third episode starts once again with Cleese saying "sorry", but
now he has written the commercial himself, one they just have to
love. Cleese shouts "hit it, girls" then about ten nice girls
walks/dances behind him, and Cleese points at the product while
saying the products name about ten times keeping the rhytm.
He ends the commercial saying "now, that was fun, wasn't it?"
