Mohammed Ali (charming as always):

I could watch old Parkinson interviews all day.

I know it sounds a bit stupid, but Parkinson was a better sports writer than he was a chat show host. Not quite the same money, of course.

Oh, well, I always liked his chats. It’s probably just the accent, though. Gets me every time.

Wow I can’t see the video at work (iblock U) but is it the one where Sellers comes IC as a Gestapo officer?
Trivia: Sellers first guy on the cover of Playboy. (WIki)
