He said: "John also directed the abysmal pilot of Men Behaving Badly with Harry Enfield that no one has ever seen. We remade it." Martin added: "Dare I say it was badly directed."

The actor continued: "He went on to direct Fawlty Towers the most other thing.

"And at one point, he actually said to me be more like John Cleese because their idea that it wouldn't be funny unless there was a clash that we had to, as characters flatmates, it had to be," Martin added to .

The 63-year-old is reuniting with his Men Behaving Badly co-star Neil Morrissey for a brand new venture, 26 years after the sitcom that kicked off their careers.

Ahead of its release, he stated: "It's fantastic we have this golden opportunity to reunite so I can introduce my pal Martin to all the things I love so much about France, along with some Gallic treasures I've always wanted to see.

"I've fallen in love with this country, its glorious food, its delicious wine, and knowing Martin has an EU passport, I'm fairly certain he'll be relocating here once I've finished with him."

As Martin added: "I intend to find out by devouring the lot of it and seeing what I can remember afterward."
