George C. Scott visits with Johnny on November 3rd, 1987, to promote his sitcom, "Mr. President". It's interesting to point out, so many years later, that "Mr. President" was made by Carson's production company for the brand new Fox network, and Carson himself suggested Scott for the role, having been in awe of the actor his whole life.
Funnily enough, they barely breathe a word about the sitcom during the twelve-minute interview. Instead, we're dazzled by the wonderful Scott reciting a few lines from the character Thomas Mendip, of Christopher Fry's play "The Lady's not for Burning" (1949). Pure gold.
