    “My heart’s broken…my father’s dead.” Such raw emotion. Only Craig.

      There are something’s that need to bring to the surface.
      I’m glad that Craig spoke from his heart. I felt very empathetic to his story.

    Craig's a really great guy. He can be funny and clown around but he can be really serious and personal when he needs to be. Any dad would be proud to have a son like him

    This clip has always resonated with me but especially since my father passed away in January 2018. When he says you “don’t need to manufacture the sadness, my hearts broken. My fathers dead” that is so true. So many people try to force people to “let their emotions out” when they’re not crying too much outwardly or to restrain themselves and snap out of it if they’re crying too much. Whether it’s shown externally or not, anyone who experiences this magnitude of a loss is perpetually crying on the inside. Craig shed light on this in a way that no other late night host ever would. He showed the world that the grieving process is both healthy and necessary and also that it can’t just be swept under the rug. Thank you Craig. Both of your parents are looking down at you proud of who you are.

    Craig is the best. From the heart, funny and though he had to be on camera everyone that loved his family was laughing along with us.

    It also seems that whenever he talks about his father or some things from Scotland the accent REALLY kicks in

    My father died this week. My heart's broken too. He, like Craig, was a recovering alcoholic. I knew he helped others with sobriety, but I didn't know it was hundreds of people.

  • @HooHeeHaHa
    @HooHeeHaHa 12 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    I'm from Glasgow myself and I think it's amazing that all this local Scottish humour's gettin' aired on American telly. He's right about the wake, I remember my Grandad's; he was called a "daft el git" more than once. I should probably feel bad for Craig, but this is really very funny. He's a top lad for sure.

    My father died of a heart attack in june of 2023. It's feb. 2024, now. He was 87. Still got around good. We would go to the movies together. I miss that, all the time. He was the best. Funny and nice. A great guy.

    It's not really until you see old videos of the late late show that you realize there is some truth in the 'Craig has "lost"his accent'-talk...

    Going from this amazing man to James Corden must rank as the biggest downgrade in television history. Craig Ferguson was hilarious and honest in every way.... Pretty much the opposite of Corden.

    I have noticed that people who are foreign from where I live, but have an 'intermediate' accent, tend to switch back when they are angry or upset. It may be the same for Craig as well :(

  • @veggigoddess
    @veggigoddess 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Now I understand Scott's saying that he's lost his Scottish accent because this is the first show I've ever seen of his, and I've seen between 7 to 800 episodes in full, where I'm actually having trouble understanding some of the words he is saying and I've never had trouble before with him

      His friend Drew had to help him get it (which they had to put down some of their own money for).
      Both him and Drew don't get a lot of offers because they don't lick the government's boots.

    Tbh, I think it was more because it was an earlier show where he still had a much thicker accent. Remember, this was only Jan 2006 and in the early shows he has a relatively thick accent compared to the most recent shows

  • @GraemeKanu
    @GraemeKanu 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Some...? Quite a lot o' truth. Though, to be fair, Craig hasn't exactly "lost" his accent completely. Ah hate to say it but... Craig's accent has become "Americanised" in recent years. By which, ah mean, not as prominent or strong as it once was. Which is kinda a shame...
    He sounds a lot better on the older videos, doesn't he? But then, maybe am biased - being Scottish maself. Hahaha!
