Hopkins is a lovely man. He's took the time to sit down with my Mum and talked to her about drinking and its problems. She stopped for 6 months based on a 10 minute conversation. Great guy
Craig: Were you a scrapper when you were drinking? Anthony: No, I was just morbid and depressed. Audience: Laughter, laughter laughter! Anthony: They laugh at anything won't they.
I imagine they've gone for some bevvys before hand, and it's probably just the vibe when you're there. Either that or Geoff is berating them to laugh :D
Are you pointing out a comment that you think people didn't hear or missed or have you some things to say about it ? I'm thinking some thing else but it's rude to be rude so I won't bother saying it ,like you should have done
Anthony Hopkins about Craig show: This is the stupidest show ever Ricky Gervais: This might be the best chat show ever Robin Williams: Chlamydiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! and laughs forever All the female celebs: This is the horniest show ever, god makes all of us hot Big salute to you Mr Ferguson, this was a strangely fantastic show.

God willing, I’ll be sober 8 years next March. In the beginning, I pulled up Anthony Hopkins talking at AA meetings, to supplement my regular AA meetings. I also loved to listen to Craig Ferguson talk about his sobriety, the brutal honesty, the ownership, and the accountability. It has hopefully helped me shape my journey to stay sober. Just want to thank these two gents for their honesty concerning their alcoholism. They’ve no doubt helped more men and women than they could ever imagine. God bless them both.
@@MavericksGoosed several of Anthony Hopkins’ talks at AA meetings are on you tube, if you type “Anthony Hopkins AA” in the search bar you should be able to pull up a selection of his talks. I don’t know how to post the links, my apologies.

One of my favorite Anthony Hopkins lines was; Today is the tomorrow you were so worried about yesterday. May sound silly, but to an alcoholic it makes perfect sense
3.1.2021 MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE ACTOR Sir Anthony Hopkins. I had NO CLUE he was THIS HILARIOUS. I can see how deeply SHY he is too. Can you? A brilliant man, and brilliant Actor. My God how I'd LOVE to work WITH HIM!!! And boy would I ever LOVE to sit and just talk with him. But I don't SEE that as likely, simply because he examples the traits of someone who is VERY PRIVATE about his life and times. I sure don't blame him, I'm this way also. I just TALK A LOT... WAY TOO MUCH... like they flash the HAND SIGN to me "TMI" can't help it either. Sighs! LOVE to COMMUNICATE when the communication IS REAL and TRUE. SO GLAD I was here to see this interview today. I'm at the 6:21 marker, and have been here with tears in my eyes laughing along with the CROWD who is SO VERY FOND of him too. Me too peeople... me too,. :--)) Blessings always, Stay Safe, WISE and thus WELL out there!! Nicholas In Seattle Adieu...
Anthony Hopkins, It has been more ore less 40 odd years ago since I spend like 4 weeks in Wales as an exchange student (Lord and behold) I was 15 at the time being. I can still until this day, count to 10 in welsh! I'm so proud of that, Thank you for all the fantastic films you've been acting in.
while I agree with you, he was not the only one. Conan was a another master. Sadly one was pushed to the cable because he was treated like absolute shit on a nacional tv channel and the other got the show canceled because the channel in itself if an absolute shite and he had no support whatsoever.
conan and craig had the sauce lopez was ok and couldve been able to bring something different arsenio came and went 2 times all the other late nights that were better are now old men who are either retired or dead
I'm watching this in 2021. Craig is an excellent talk show host. It's all about making the guests at ease and having a meandering chat like a pair of mates. There is no nastiness or making fun of the guests.
I absolutely love hearing these two talk. Anthony has such a calming, almost ASMR-like voice and Craig has his wonderful Scottish brogue. I could listen to them both, together or separate, all day.
I think he was just the most authentic and silly. I am from Glasgow too so I am very biased but he just has a naturalness about him and the show is the antithesis of your typical slick overwrought American production with ten writers coming up with one liners and puns. That is something very refreshing. Pity he doesn't drink because he is one guy I would love to have a drink with ( I don't drink but once a year myself, when I go home to the UK ).
I was very fortunate to see Sir Anthony Hopkins in the production of "M. BUTTERFLY" at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London. 1989. As you can imagine Hopkins performance was mesmerising!
*Look at EVERYTHING we got from this interview... the details, the stories, experiences. Any other talk show host would probably have some stupid impression or giggle endlessly like an idiot. I miss our main man, Craig!!*
i live in cheshire and climb snowdon all the time. Thankyou for donating to the trust forget the films thousands of people enjoy climbing there because of you, cheers matey
Now, this man has, besides being a phenominal actor, actually composed classical music and it was played before him by a symphonic orchestra. Quite extraordinary, to say it like Hopkins.
Sir Hopkins is one of my 5 most favorite actors... every role he has done with such precise accuracy! I loved him in Shadowlands the most. Ahhhh kiss toss to Sir Hopkins!
I like how he doesn't regard acting as real work as is not afraid to say it. So refreshing and great to hear this stuff from a legend like him. A little stab towards everyone else going on bout how much work they do for their tens of million dollar salaries.
There may be, yes. Around Hollywood? Do you know some personally? Have you made experience in this industry? I say pick carefully, by whom you want to be influenced - especially as an actor.
Craig must be my favorite talk show host from across the pond. I mean, I laughed genuinely to most of it. And Hopkins is a legend. Period. I love how this show turns surreal out of the blue.
I STRONGLY agree! Kimmel is a knucklehead. Fallon is Peter Pan all grown up. Colbert, as always, is a GOP satirist who owes all of his success to Drumpft. And the brilliant Conan, who has been neutered by the late night entertainment machine, is now floundering on TBS.
"Do you play golf?" "No, no I don't; do you?" "No, no..." "No, I'm not interested..." "What a boring game..." Totally destroy the sport and make it funny as hell.
Craig: "Now remember, I am unlicensed. I am in no way a therapist....MUCH LIKE DR. PHIL!" ....and what's happening with Dr. Phil now? Craig called it years ago!
@@hersheybarber1424 It's a 3D spiral. (Progression happens, but far slower than most people think, and ideas are recycled many many times, although usually rebranded as new.)
The biggest mystery though, is why all american talk shows gives the guests that heavy clumsy mug of water (instead of a normal elegant glass of water). It looks like they were out on a camping trip or something.
As for being a fellow scot I have to say that I admire craigs charm, wit and charasma and tony hopkings is just a phenomenal actor he is up there with Brando, Hoffman, Nicholson, Oldman and Day Lewis.
Not really having known about him aside from the movies, I was quite surprised by how down-to-earth and funny Hopkins is. He really seemed to enjoy his visits.
When Tony was starting out , he was in a marvelous TV series of War and Peace, I was reading the book at the time so I could follow all the characters which could be a little daunting . I fell in love with Natasha and named my cat after her. However Sir Anthony, was a superb Russian Aristocrat that was slightly dumb. Cant remember the name of his character, its been 50 years but he was great
He's a gent. He still writes letters to other actors whose performances he appreciates, and has no qualms about doing 'silly' movies if they look like they'd be fun to do. And yes, as Jim, says he's one of the greatest living actors on stage or screen. His performance in Westworld is something else.
During the outro, the two gentlemen realized that strange man was floundering, and instantly exhibited the usual standards of chivalry. That jerk needs to keep his day-job, utterly inappropriate subject presented without a spread of humor.
If you've never seen Remains of the Day, do so. You'll see what I consider the best acting performance by anyone ever. You'll see it especially when he goes out of the house. There's a very subtle unease you can sense in him being out of his element. You really feel the character of Stevens is a real person... a very real person.
I watched Larry King interview him years ago, and he said the Remains of the Day was his favorite movie he'd done. Also said Jodie Foster was his favorite actress to work with. Said he took a part in one of the Mission Impossible movies that was set in Australia, without reading the script, just because he wanted to take a free vacation to "down under" for a while. ha ha
You can enjoy this stupidity completely sober. This is real comedy and the laughter is real folk laughing without having to be told to do so. Great fun.
NOBODY (in my experience anyway) engages so thoroughly and so consistently hilariously with his guests than Craig Ferguson. I'm a huge Letterman fan, but if I want to watch a great interview with a person of any-interest-at-all, ... it's Craig Ferguson I'll turn to (well, used to turn to - left with only TH-cam now). This was a great example of how thoroughly he engages a guest, and takes them on a fun, weird journey.
Ah...great to hear Anthony in conversation. 🤣”This is the stupidest show”😆.. “Are you talking to me?” My brother John Walton was in a movie Spotswood in Australia 1992 with Anthony Hopkins. Great cast of actors before they were famous. Russell Crowe, Toni Collette, Ben Mendelsohn, Alwyn Kurts and more
This guy pulls the comedy out of everyone. Hopkins White Freeman are not comedians but damn he gets the absolute funny out of them. Even comedians seem more funny with this guy.
That day I saw Anthony Hopkins barking at a fake horse on national television, I knew this show would have a special place in my heart.
That’s a new sentence.
Hopkins is a lovely man. He's took the time to sit down with my Mum and talked to her about drinking and its problems. She stopped for 6 months based on a 10 minute conversation. Great guy
"Do you golf?"
"No, do you?"
"No."
"Stupid a facking game."
How much better is this than James Corden?
They're incomparable. Corden is just shouty and unfunny.
James who?
Craig is light years ahead of that idiot
YES
A bazillion times
Anthony Hopkins - a man who gives zero f*cks about fame. A bloody genius
Oh?
He asks me What is your favorite of my movies
Craig: Were you a scrapper when you were drinking?

He may not take the social aspect of Hollywood seriously but he takes the craft seriously....undoubtedly one of the top 5 living actor of our time
I really like that he's not into the Hollywood schmoozing. He's a phenomenal actor.
and now nominated for another Best Actor Oscar. The guy is phenomenal!
Because he has balance
He probably doesn't give a fig what actors thing about politics or any other subject, "balance"
Wrong
Anthony and Clint Eastwood are gold
Craig: Do you go to therapy?
Anthony: No, but I will after this.
Anthony Hopkins, It has been more ore less 40 odd years ago since I spend like 4 weeks in Wales as an exchange student (Lord and behold) I was 15 at the time being. I can still until this day, count to 10 in welsh! I'm so proud of that, Thank you for all the fantastic films you've been acting in.
God I miss Craig.. the country needs more of him right about now
He'd be cancelled by twitter mobs lol
He would upset all of California
He's got a podcast on Sirius Xm now
Rip gone too soon 😞
Hes leftist like the rest of them. Not needed
Craig: Did you see "Man Who Would Be King"?
Anthony: I was in it.
Craig is both the most, ridiculous and earnest in his interviews, he was the only one who could’ve saved late night t.v, he is a master
Conan is a Legend.
while I agree with you, he was not the only one. Conan was a another master. Sadly one was pushed to the cable because he was treated like absolute shit on a nacional tv channel and the other got the show canceled because the channel in itself if an absolute shite and he had no support whatsoever.
Craig's Late Show was awesome, but he decided to quit on his own. It didn't get cancelled, it was his personal choice.
You’re kidding right? The guy is a nimrod
conan and craig had the sauce lopez was ok and couldve been able to bring something different arsenio came and went 2 times all the other late nights that were better are now old men who are either retired or dead
Craig always had the most dynamic and comfortable conversations. Made it feel like just two friends catching up.
So true. The conversations are so natural and unforced.
One of very very few who can keep up with Richard Ayoade in an interview 👌
Absolutely. Always.
Absolutely! Well put🎉

Put it on loop then.
I never get tired of watching these things! Best show ever. Thanks Jayleno Fly.
Craig Ferguson was the most BRILLIANT talk show host of all time.... what a creative genius.

"I don't hang out with actors"
Step one one for keeping yourself real.
How so? There are really decent people who are actors.
There may be, yes.
Around Hollywood?
Do you know some personally?
Have you made experience in this industry?
I say pick carefully, by whom you want to be influenced - especially as an actor.
Not all performers are delusional and hypocrites.. Generalizations are quite often the root for discriminations.
How?
Actually he is kind an actor..

Craig must be my favorite talk show host from across the pond. I mean, I laughed genuinely to most of it. And Hopkins is a legend. Period.

I suspect I would probably like Sir Anthony more than any other actor in Hollywood today. There’s no bullshit about the man.
When he is aked about Wales.
"We were the Irish who couldn't swim.
Very funny. I loved that.
I love Hopkins. So down to earth and real.
"Do you go to therapy?"
"No. I will after this though."
Anthony Hopkins is so funny! "Why is that horse looking at me?"
LMFAO.
Craig: Don't be a stranger now, come by often, will you?
Anthony Hopkins: Comes by 6 years later...
He probably had to.. it was probably involuntary.. you know how it is.. it’s just work for them - it’s not fun..
Craig is fantastic with these huge guests and they enjoy the show. By far the best chat show I have ever seen.
I am so glad you put all these together!!
When I look back at Craig's shows like this and then see what we have now. Man. "How far we done fall."
I STRONGLY agree! Kimmel is a knucklehead. Fallon is Peter Pan all grown up. Colbert, as always, is a GOP satirist who owes all of his success to Drumpft. And the brilliant Conan, who has been neutered by the late night entertainment machine, is now floundering on TBS.
@@lucist I was talking about James Cordon specifically.
VulakAerr - You weren't clear at all about that! I specifically left Corden out, and left Seth out too! Can you guess why?

Craig, is such a smooth talker, can't compliment him enough. He can make anybody feel comfortable! And so charismatic, damn!
I disagree--he is a poor interviewer and often too willing to sacrifice the interview for a laugh
Since the goal of Craig Ferguson's show was laughs that's a weird complaint.
Amartya Choudhury iii
Surely the goal of the show was to interview guests....?
Of Craig Ferguson? No, it was mostly to get laughs. Guests were just the medium. :)
I didnt appreciate Craig Ferguson when he was on TV. What an intelligent funny charming man. A real talk show. No gimmicks. Jokes and conversations.
Do you know what a gimmick means?
Very cool 🎉thank you
One of the Greatest to ever do it
I don't know why I would expect anything different from an actor of Hopkins' calibre, but that is a Platinum level Michael Caine.
Anthony Hopkins: Michael Parkinson is the Johnny Carson of UK talk shows. He's good. So are you.
Craig Ferguson: Do you know any prostitutes?
I'm not hearing a "no"...
Cause Craig will do anything for a joke. That’s why we love him. That, and he’s pretty darn funny. More comedian than talk show host. Best of both✌🏻

I'm a huge Letterman fan, but if I want to watch a great interview with a person of any-interest-at-all, ... it's Craig Ferguson I'll turn to (well, used to turn to - left with only TH-cam now).
This was a great example of how thoroughly he engages a guest, and takes them on a fun, weird journey.
i miss craig ferguson the most as a talk show host. he was warm and fun. the others could learn so much from him. such a shame his show ended.
Hopkins is one of my favorite actors. And Craig
Ferguson my favorite talk show host.
Ah...great to hear Anthony in conversation. 🤣”This is the stupidest show”😆.. “Are you talking to me?” My brother John Walton was in a movie Spotswood in Australia 1992 with Anthony Hopkins. Great cast of actors before they were famous. Russell Crowe, Toni Collette, Ben Mendelsohn, Alwyn Kurts and more
This guy pulls the comedy out of everyone. Hopkins White Freeman are not comedians but damn he gets the absolute funny out of them. Even comedians seem more funny with this guy.
para,
I think your 'Hopkins White Freeman' lacks context.
