↳ Favourite Interviews {1/?}: CW Interview, 2009

[lavender-lizzy]

I love this interview. It's so moving when he talks about when he was about to go to drama school and his parents bought him Shakespeare's works; his father, proud, said to the woman at the till 'It's for me son, he's an actor'. Lovely.

Olympic Countdown Challenge – Day 11

Favourite Interview

(I’m a bit late in getting this done. I can’t believe I was away from my laptop for the day, and so much goodness has come from the Roxanne documentary. That deserves its own post as I still have to watch it in full, and the from the snippets I’ve seen, it looks really good.)

Favourite interview – where to start? I’d have to pick something from one of their many post-comeback interviews. Scott just seems more free with his thoughts, less guarded in what he says. Tessa seems to mainly stay on script, but Scott has had some “Wait! What did he just say?!” moments. Overall they just seem so happy – with their team, their programs, with each other – and keeping their focus on enjoying the moments, learning, improving, doing this for themselves. And the intensity of staring at each other while talking has reached all new levels.

Canada in a day (technically not an interview):

S:  What do you love?

T: Canada!

S: Ooooohhhhh! I thought it was going to be me.

T: (Giggles)

Golden Skate interview (Hamilton stop of 2017 SOI tour):

Scott slipping into an Irish accent, hamming it up, and Tessa giggling for a good 20 seconds after that. Scott’s comments about Tessa really pulling him through at the Worlds, after he stumbled. Tessa saying she didn’t do anything and if that was a bad day for him, that was pretty good.

 The National (Dec 5 2017):

Scott not being able to live with himself if he ever lets Tessa down. Tessa quickly saying he couldn’t no, never.

Behind the scenes of the flag bearers photoshoot:

T: Every part of our athletic career has happened together. Every training session, every gym session, every on-ice competition, it sort of marks the culmination of our twenty-year partnership and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate that.

S: It’s been the honour of my life, I think, to work with Tessa and to share this moment with her and to see the athlete that she is, the person that she is, I can’t think of anyone more deserving.

Facebook Live interview at the flag bearers announcement

The interviewer saying they are incredibly beautiful people! T&S apologizing for having to keep the announcement secret, talking about how they’ll be carrying the flag in – whatever they do, it will be as a team, voicing support for all the Team Canada athletes and racing to get to as many other events as they can.

Richard Armitage 31 Day Challenge - Day 28: A favourite interview

I must say I’ve always loved the Popcorn Taxi interview, it was one of the first I saw with him and I absolutely love his look, his voice, his clothes, his naughtiness.. Here’s where he talks about “Dwarves  Illustrated”.

There’s also another one where he’s relaxed and at ease, and he’s also wearing black leather... (wink wink).  Too bad for the music, a bit on the loud side...

And.... the interview for Digital Theatre, where he explains something more about John Proctor... (’a voracious sexual appetite’....). Maybe it’s because I adore Proctor and I appreciate every interview in which Richard tells us a little more about this man.

I’ve just noticed that he’s wearing a beard in all of them. Well, is this a coincidence? Ahem...

List of Favourite Richie Interviews

anonymous asked:

what are some of your favorite Richard interviews?! trying to introduce him to my friend and I have a few but need more! :)

Thank you so much for the question, anon!  I will give a sort of "Top Ten" list (in no particular order) of my go-to ones, and will put it under a "read more" so as not to take up too much space on the dash.

Cheers!

Ahhh - there are so many to choose from!  These are a bunch that I watch to cheer me up because of Richard's adorable personality, or that showcase how he embodies his characters completely and how much he loves to discuss his roles. Some might not even be actual interviews :S

BBC America Interview: (http://youtu.be/YFeJ470dNKI) - Richard answers fan questions in depth about his role on Robin Hood.  Prob the one I have watched more often than any other.  ”Unfortunately black seems to suit me more than any other colour”

Cinemax Max 60 Seconds: (http://youtu.be/eLIK-DREmJA) - Cinemax rules.  His laugh is adorable.  ”A blonde walks into a bar - you’d have thought she’d have seen it”

Cinemax Max Final Cut Segment 2: (http://youtu.be/4mLnG0abF_g) - All of these segments are lovely - the camaraderie amongst the four of them is perf. "When you need to use the loo in between takes it's SO disappointing" :P

North & South Interview Parts 1 & 2: (http://youtu.be/QLAKAkT_9Jg) (http://youtu.be/vm-Cqm6UB9s) - One of his earlier interviews - Richard talks about the extensive research he did for the role of John Thornton, and how it has changed his life. "I realised it was the role of a lifetime"

The Impressionists BTS Funny Moments: (http://youtu.be/l6uLqngs8b4) - Richard and castmates screwing up their lines etc. - hilarity abounds.   I absolutely CANNOT watch without laughing.  "Stop. Please. I can't bear it"

RA from Robin Hood Series 2 DVD: (http://youtu.be/x2C6MJZfNFk) - A relaxed Richard talking about Series 2 in a sleeveless t-shirt - need I say more? "In Series 1, I kind of figured that Gisborne was a bit like a robot - no comments about the style of acting - THANK YOU"

BBC Breakfast Robin Hood Series 2: (http://youtu.be/RZKm3_QGwI8) - The full interview (Russian subtitles) from which bits are taken for other things.  Richard is adorable, slightly awkward, just perfect.  "I've really built a relationship with my horse.  My horse is also called Richie"

GMTV with Lorraine - 2007: (http://youtu.be/wIhj_dA8TG4) - talking about Robin Hood - Richard’s vids with Lorraine are lovely; they have great chemistry. ”You’re such a beautiful boy”

GMTV with Lorraine - 2010: (http://youtu.be/_bWQxJwuKe8) - promoting Strike Back.  Wearing the pretty purple Lucas shirt :’)  ”I’m a big gangly 6’2” bloke”

GMTV with Lorraine - 2013: (http://youtu.be/N0GOrF_-DyM) - because he is still precious and adorable even though he is sick as a dog.  "The desire to get on stage is strong with me ... some classical theatre would be nice to get back to".  It looks like it's happening ... or a reading at least :')

Spooks Series 9 Interview: (http://youtu.be/NlsH3_a019Q) - An in-depth interview with Rich in the purple shirt, looking and sounding lovely. "I'd like to do something nice and calm and all about love"  Yes please ❤

Popcorn Taxi - Sydney 2013: (http://youtu.be/CVvR4S7Jys4) - a fantastic watch - Q&A interspersed with footage of The Hobbit.  A must-see.  ”What happened in the calendar stays in the calendar”

Bin Weevils Interview: (http://youtu.be/YHb8_9_Dc3w) - So many cute questions and answers.  "A small person can have a great influence if they have enough courage"

Richard on George Stroumboulopoulos: (http://youtu.be/q0Ej0aGz4ks) - another of my absolute faves (other than when Strombo shows him a fanvid - but it results in RA "choking" Strombo, which is quite funny). "Don't mention the speedos"

This Morning UK / "The Biggest Sword": (http://youtu.be/ADQpFQbZBrs) - Richard at his double entendre best - an auto reblog :D  "I know it's true, I did have the biggest sword in all of the dwarves" 

The Story of Dibley BTS: (http://youtu.be/aZargfiwA5Q) - A behind the scenes vid about the filming of The Vicar of Dibley (The Handsome Stranger) with Richard Curtis, Dawn French, and the rest of the cast. Richard has said that Harry Kennedy is the character he has played which is closest to his own personality. (He first comes on screen at 1:05)  "I was sitting on a train reading the scripts and crying with laughter"

NBC Today Show: (http://youtu.be/8DDqfFYF4PI) - Because HIS OUTFIT and because Kathie Lee and Hoda fall in love with him just like the rest of us :') "Cheers! I thought I might be making out with you so I brushed my teeth"

MTV News with Josh Horowitz: (http://youtu.be/DQ0ZyDHeIJ4) - in which Richard "invents" the words iconographise and discontinuity (they *are* both words). "He kind of goes into the Erebor asylum"

I could go on and on (and prob would) but I'll stop here :D  Enjoy! ❤

London did not have much of a release, but Evans doesn’t seem to care. “I’m a bit of a control freak,” he confessed. “And it’s easier to be a control freak on a smaller project. If I were a director, I would never hire me. I want to know about everything—from the music to the camera angle.” Which means, of course, that he wants to direct.
