The name or term "Eric" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Eric (disambiguation).

Eric Idle (March 29, 1943 — not-dead-yet) is a British actor. He is most famous for being in some obscure comedy troupe called "Monty Python".

He was once attacked by a Siamese bat. No, not a cat, a Siamese bat. They're much more dangerous. *nudge nudge*

“	Transformers: The Movie was a fabulous gig where they flew me on the Concorde to New York for a day's tape recording, and then flew me back. It was horrible whilst I was in there recording, because I didn't understand a word of what was going on. Lines like "Itchging ugh-gah bluhblah..." And they'd say, "No, no, the emphasis is on ITCH-ging." I'd be like, "What the hell are they talking about?" [Laughs] I've never seen the movie. I make a practice of not watching myself, because I know I'd be disappointed.	”
—Eric Idle on doing The Movie and on a certain someone, and possibly about a particular line as well

The Transformers Animated team originally sought Idle to play their version of Wreck-Gar as well, but he was busy with production of Spamalot at the time, leading "Weird Al" Yankovic to be cast instead.
