He is my all time favorite ! I first saw him in Billions and then followed to Homeland and Band of Brothers. Brilliant, powerful, charismatic, good looking actor.

The boy done good.......... Like a lot of his old school chums, who also went on to enjoy success........ The Prime Minister, for example, I believe he attended the same school, as did numerous future PM's before him....... It must be the teaching staff, I'm a recovering teacher, which might explain my leaning towards that possibility, it might???? Something has to account for the consistent production of 'winners' that have throughout this school's history, been churned out almost as if they were being machine-pressed, or turned on a lathe, instead of simply being subject to superior teaching methodology, one theory. Clearly it's an environment that lends itself to learning +, famously, is a multi-cultural space. Students from the Middle-East, particularly oil producing nations, are not uncommon, Arab royalty, heads of state, all send their offspring to this school where the most likely to succeed is a very tough call........ You've no doubt heard of it.......... Eton, the quintessential school for rich, posh kids. One thing that many British people don't like is rich, posh people........ If that's a lie then I'm Little Lord Fauntleroy! .......... I'm not the wee Lord + that's no lie........... It's a British thing, a piss-weak outlook that's bugged me for years........... It's a widely held opinion that 'working class' is a label to be proud of, 'middle-class' = scum of the earth, nothing but contempt for them........... Whoever they might be, which is never made clear but it seems to be anyone perceived to have more than them is branded with this terrible slur. These half-wit morons make no sense....... The middle class are what they themselves would like to be, how can you dislike someone when you want nothing more than to be what they are......... You don't like rich people but dream of being rich......... All that sort of talk is the talk of an idiot......... Privileged elitism, the sort that goes with an Eton School tie is another issue all together + Damian Lewis is a great actor, which has nothing to do with his going to Eton............ BoJo being PM, however, is another story all together, one I don't want to talk about, it's there to be spoken of, though, if anyone did ever want to....................
@daAnder71 You raise an interesting, + fair to say, pedantic point, I'd say, but the most important thing to establish is the fact you're wrong about the term being 'redundant'....... The privileged elite you say can only be, as the name suggests, blessed with privilege + were they not to be would present us with something you asked me if I'd ever come across before?......?....... 'Not that I recall', is my response to your question, 'I may well have done', is another way of putting it. I used to drink a lot + it's scary what I don't remember, as is some of what I do........ I met Joe Strummer on a flight back to London, one time, an under-privileged elite, however......... Nope, it's not evoking any rumbling down there in 'Data Storage', never mind, I appear to have drifted off towards the part of town they call, 'Irrelevant'........ Now, where was I? That's it, I was enlightening you....... Where you're failing is by not allowing for the many other possible 'elites'. The privileged elite, as opposed to some other elite mob, are defined by their privilege, it's what separates them from....... 'The TH-cam Elite', some of who are so lacking on the privilege end of things I can't look them in the eye! So, redundant? My arse! Too many ..........? I'm not even going to discuss punctuation, my full stop fetish is a private thing, I'm sorry you find it so confronting. One last thing, before I go, a favourite campaign issue of mine, one I often bang on about as it comes up regularly...... 'What's he on about, now?' The looong comments I write that so often are victim to a completely false + inaccurate perception. The 'epic comment' you mentioned, I'm willing to bet, irresponsibly if need be, your house, for example, I'd gladly throw that on the table! I'd lay those big bucks on your not knowing this supposed 'epic', 370 words, is less than a 1 minute read for a lot of people, myself included, who all read 400+ words a minute. There are loads of reading speed test sites on the web + you most likely read faster than you imagined. What looks like a hefty chunk of text is often wildly overestimated in terms of how long people imagine it'll take to read it. So, no more going on about less than a minute's read as though it were War + Peace........ not that you did, people in general...... I'll get my coat........ (Just over 400 words, or, a 1 minute read....... not a very epic, epic, eh?)
Never understood why US TV (and films) need actors like Damian Lewis and Hugh Laurie and Idris Elba etc. to come over there to play Americans. Aren't there talented, actual American actors with natural accents available? I suspect there are many...
Damien Lewis AND Matthew Macfadyen were BOTH born into the Upper Class of 'noble' Welsh/Scotts/Brit privileged ruling classes, with Damien also part Sephardic Jewish (like also Helena Bonham Carter & Eva Green--Rachel Weisz was born into Vienna Jewish aristocratic families, not Sephardic). For me BAND OF BROTHERS was vile WAR PORN and set the tone for unlimited "patriotic" soldier recruitment three days release date SEPT 9 2001 just before WTC (giant billboard ads for BAND OF BROTHERS ran all over Manhattan subways and billboards and bus ads for six months leading up to Sept 9th). Spielberg will be seen later by historians as a mediocre film director who made better propaganda than art. Spielberg never came close at all to the magic and artistic genius of KUBRICK, hence all his Holocaust Museum patronage all over the world !
@@jeannecarroll683 the only drugs I am taking are experimental mRNA vaccines, is that what you are referring to Nurse Ratched? Don't you agree with my professional medical mental health prognosis that it is super tragic that Steven Spielberg does not have 1/5000th the talent or intelligence of KUBRICK but 1000x times more power in Hollywood than Kubrick could ever have dreamed of? BAND OF BROTHERS is like a juvenile mish mash compared to FULL METAL JACKET.
What a classy speech from a great guy. Love that he showed honor to Matthew!
Amazing work in Band of Brothers - I watch it every year or two.
I do to. Usually start watching it when the weather gets cold every year. It's an amazing show
@Michael Quinn it's a masterpiece--epic!
Yep, me too. Never get bored with it.
It’s amazing how he sounds pure American when he’s a brit. Outstanding acting !
He is my all time favorite ! I first saw him in Billions and then followed to Homeland and Band of Brothers. Brilliant, powerful, charismatic, good looking actor.
Amy Kunchome same (except 4 homeland)
Check him out in Life
Amy K. And a lot of us Yankees thought he was American😂🤣
@@samuela9245 why
Me too..started with billions...he's very sexy, too
he is next level in billions
He is next level in EVERYTHING
@@CharleyCarey he was in homeland too.

@Nathanael Marcel instablaster =)
"Damian, nobody messes with the Peaky fucking Blinders!"
😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Damien Lewis is a Fantastic actor. 🏆
I love Damian Lewis, Forsyte Chronicles, Homeland, Band of Brothers. Well deserved.
*The Forsyte Saga* by *ITV.*
Billions?
So nice to receive an award from such a great old pal like Matthew! These two are just adorable!
when you criticize how UK Drama school was outdated,
make jokes on Sir Micheal Caine acting skill,
And Jim Carrey laugh and sips his tea.
It amazes me how he can speak to sound so American. He’s a great actor.
Southern British accent, which he possesses, is the root of American English. Early Americans spoke a similar dialect to him. So it's not that hard
I absolutely loved LIFE-Charlie Crews was such an interesting, complex character, and I was gutted when it was cancelled.
I had no idea this dude was British and I've watched Dream catcher, Homeland and Billions. Says something about his acting.
this man is a national treasure
Damian and his unblinked scenes in billions🙌
Billions and Succession, two of my favorite shows
What a great actor.
He'll be Major Dick Winters for ever.
I love this man i really love him 🖤🖤 Be happy greatDAMIAN
Him in british accent is unbelievable
daAnder71 Nah, it’s totally a fake accent
RIP Helen😢
Great mentioning Helen at the end ❤
how is this man still underrated?
next james bond
"Life" was a great TV show.
Great actor!!!!!!
I love the guy...!
Am I the only one who thinks he genuinely looks like Steve McQueen
His original british accent is funny as fuck and can't believe he is bobby axelordv from his accent
billions of damians
I love him
“Mum, we’re out of toilet roll.” ~ isolation2020
huh, michael's advice does explain Mr. Lewis's performance in the forsythe saga.
Brodys in deep cover for this one
The VERY BEST thing about him is his wife!!
The Creme de la Creme... 🤪😍❤️
I like his British accent lolol
That firestorm behind Damian Lewis might have been tamped down a bit to be less distracting. Slowed to half speed at least.
You’ll be remembered as Major Winters 🎖️ 🫡 CURRAHEEE !!!
that accent tho holy
Broody i love you from kerry 😊
I do what I likes and I likes what I do. Lovely 🙂
nice scene. what series is this from??
Do these actors know ahead of time they are getting this award?
Glad he thanks American companies for his career!
Who was the guy in the beginning?
Jim Carrey appreciates this kind of storytelling
Broody i love u from kerry 😊😊💃💃😊😊😊

When does Spy Wars start up next 2020?
Mark my words: Next Bond
That’d be amazing!! He’ll never agree to those press requirements. They are very, very heavy
😄😄😄
say thank you and move along. worlds longest speech.
🙂👼

Doninaee next james bond?
I don't like Major Winters's british accent
That was a pretty long bafta speech from someone who couldn’t act if his life depended on it…
Wdym can't act?
Love his accent but those Brits beg for American financing for their productions. They should Kow-Tow to Americans.
Hmmm a bit full of himself?
