John Cleese reveals he 'took LSD aged 65' to know 'what is was all about' as he recalls 'terrifying' ten minutes
The Faulty Towers star, 85, explained he was 'surprisingly ignorant' when he was younger and was never interested in taking drugs.
The drug is believed to 'alter a person’s perception of reality and vividly distort the senses and is a fungus that grows on rye and other grains', according to CAMH. The comments come after it was announced last year that the actor is writing a new television show set in the Caribbean, which will see Basil's daughter who has worked in hotels all her life, embark on a new job and enlist the help of her father. Despite the controversy, John confirmed the new West End production of the classic 1970s sitcom will include the scene in which a delusional Fawlty, suffering from a head injury, continually brings up the Second World War.
