Terry Jones
In 2014 I interviewed Terry Jones for Reader's Digest. The piece coincided with an exhibition at the British Museum that historian Jones was speaking at. But maybe of greater importance, it had just been announced that Monty Python shows were to take place at the 02 Arena. Jones was probably the most affable interviewee I have ever encountered.
Tributes have been paid to Terry Jones at Bafta Cymru where the Welsh comedian was presented with an award for his outstanding contribution to television and film. It was revealed last month that the Monty Python star is suffering from a form of dementia.
Michael Palin has paid a touching tribute to his friend and Monty Python colleague Terry Jones who has been diagnosed with dementia.
Posting a message on Facebook Palin wrote the following:
Monty Python veteran Terry Jones has been diagnosed with dementia.
It has been announced that Michael Sheen will narrate The Truthful Phone, a short film based on Terry Jones’ story of the same name to be directed by fellow Welshman Carl Rock. A Kickstarter campaign has been launched to fund the project.
Monty Python stars Michael Palin and Terry Jones were reunited yesterday at the Museum of Comedy in Holborn. They were the guests of comedy historian Robert Ross for a special recording of his podcast Robert Ross Requests The Pleasure.
Following a screening of their 1969 Python precursor The Complete and Utter History of Britain, Palin and Jones were on good form recalling their careers together from their early meeting at Oxford through to their reunion at the O2 Arena in London last year.
