Dame Maggie has become so famous for high-end drama roles, we tend to forget she can also do comedy, sing and dance...and does them all magnificently. Thanks for the reminder.
You have eloquently articulated precisely why I'm sitting here grinning my face off AND in shock. As witty as I know she is, and an incredible actress of course ... I honestly was unaware of what else she could do in terms of singing theatre. This clip is a new favorite.
Julie Andrews years ago found Maggie Smith in tears on an elevator. Maggie was making her first Broadway play, was stone broke and stranded. She did everything and more for Maggie. Julie is the reason Maggie loved doing Carol's show - Julie and Carol were like transatlantic sisters.
The thing is, this song "You're So London" was performed by Carol and Julie at Carnegie Hall. I find it a little odd that she's reprising this song here with Maggie Smith. It's a great little comparison kind of song, but Carol and Julie did this one first. It would have been nice if the show could have created something a little more custom tailored to Maggie rather than redoing a Carol and Julie skit from years before. That's not to say this wasn't well done, though.
Great seeing Maggie Smith in her younger years. I miss these types of variety shows that I grew up with. It was family entertainment with all of the funny sketches, the singing & dancing. It might be old-school but I wish shows like this would come back. I know I would never make it with the new generations now but I can always wish.
It might. It's worth mentioning that some of the sketches on the Carol Burnett were very hard-hitting... ahead of their time, really. I bought two sets of DVDs of the Carol Burnett show for my father, and my husband and I were astonished how painfully on target some of the humor was.
I wish more people, especially people my age, would appreciate this kind of entertainment more. This class, talent, and style are not popular anymore, and it makes me sad.
Yeah, in the sense that having talent and actually taking time to build your craft isn't popular anymore. People want instant gratification that they're awesome, to the point that if disappointment comes, they can't handle it.
I think this exact same thing whenever I see these kinds of clips. There's still a big appreciation for it even among the very young; maybe even more recently while we have so little of it.
I'm 49. Reruns of this show were part of my childhood. It was some seriously good stuff. But I'm not the kind of middle-aged person who would say that everything new is crap and that there's nothing good made anymore. That's not how the world works. There's a lot of great stuff around now, too; stuff we just couldn't have back then. The world evolves and there's always something new and interesting to appreciate, and we have access to all of it now. But it is fair to say that things like this are very much a product of a time that won't be seen again. How lucky are we that we can watch all of it and so many other things? It was great stuff but you won't catch me saying there's nothing good about the now. Thanks to what we have now, everything we had then is available 24/7.
I knew about Julie and Carol singing this song (with some lyric changes) for their Carnegie Hall performance (I have the album), but I totally missed this performance before. It's the first time I've heard Maggie sing; she does it very well!
@@mlchc9004 They're both wonderful in different ways. It's not fair to compare them, because Julie Andrews had one of the most beautiful voices of all time and Maggie Smith can't really sing. (She's doing a "sing-speak" here.)
Me too!! Maggie Smith is my favorite actress. Ever since I first saw her in the original “Clash of the Titans” as the goddess Thetis, (I was around 8 years old) I’ve been a huge fan of hers.
It shouldn't be strange! So many people seeing elders only see an old person instead of a someone who lived a long life full of youth and experiences. I never understood that. Do others not want to think that one day they will be old too, and as such repress the thoughts these old people must have lived a life before getting old?
Despite what Pati Vi wrote above (and I agree with her, in principle), I'm with you, Chris H. *Maggie Smith is practically a different person* now from when this video was filmed. The shape of her face, of her nose, her rhythm of speaking... she has changed *dramatically* since she performed in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie... and this video. In contrast, I saw Carol Burnett in person about five years ago (she did a one-woman show in San Francisco), and she still looks and sounds pretty much the same as she does here in this spectacular song.
Well, it’s actually Rex Harrison speak singing. She’s not one that would ever be given the lead in “Brigadoon”, “South Pacific” or anything Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote. But, she could make do in things like this with Carol Burnett.
Gucci was started in 1921, you just don't know the time since your like fucking 5 and so assume anything modern couldn't exist back then. Oh and Gucci was centuries better in the 1920's, 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's than it ever could be now.
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar How incredibly rude!! Whether or not this person knows how long Gucci has actually been around, they were trying to say something nice and complementary. There was absolutely no reason to crap all over them! (and yes, I do understand how long Gucci has been around, as a matter fact I’m probably older than you!)
@@Positivekitten there is nothing remotely endearing about reffering to a lady as ahead of her times, like the times werent anywhere as good as she was.

And I assure you, that I have at least 20 years more than you. Want to know what is rude...a whole generation that targets the elderly in their purspoeful attempts to try to push them more and more with insults and abandonment.
Two women coming from two countries who couldn’t be more different but so complementary (and complimentary) at the same time! TV was so clean, classy and comical back then - ALL IN ONE TAKE! 👏 👏
I'm 18 years but i love this woman, she is a magnificent actress. She's so perfect and so British. I like her accent and obviously she is a very very kind, gentile and humble woman
I used to love watching the Carol Burnett show with my parents. Made me feel so grown up, lol. Love this so much. I haven’t seen much of Maggie Smith’s stuff when she was younger. She’s brilliant all around. They look like twins in those fabulous pantsuits.
This made me so happy having absolutely been obsessed with Annie 1982 with Carol Burnett as Miss Hannigan having it on video and watching it constantly as a child. And of course watching things like Harry Potter, Hook, Sister Act as well it is really cool to see these two together. It really added a nice moment to my day.
Maggie Smith made her Broadway debut in the musical revue Leonard Silliman's New Faces of 1956, sharing stage with, among others, Jane Connell, Billie Hayes (the future Witchiepoo of HR Pufnstuff), Bill McCutcheon, John Reardon, Virginia Martin, Inga Swenson, and dancer/female impersonator TC Jones, and appearing in sketches directed by Paul Lynde
Bravo !!!! where and when can we have this kind of show again ????????? So clean, full of talent, true entertainers, gifted and oh so great. Carol Burnett, thank you. You will forever be loved by many.
Amelia Ugarte , Burnett explained when she accepted the first award named after her at the 2019 Golden Globe Award show. The networks won’t foot the bill for that kind of variety show any more .
Caroll could be very racy too. She once had a parody on "I will follow him" (Peggy March). She sang "I will swallow him". It was an hilarious act, because she did it as ditzy and funny dumb witted as could be. Big laughs.
Though I completely loved it when Julie Andrews and Carol Burnett did You’re So London at Carnegie Hall in 1962, I think this version with Carol and Maggie Smith has something very special about it; over and above (relatively), a verve in its step/energy/presence. Loved it. Surprised me more too, in so far as I’ve never thought of Maggie Smith as a singer. Clearly, she holds a tune so well. I guess she represents the ‘all rounder’ quality of classic performers. Thanks. Top notch! 🌈🍂🍃
This is awesome! Maggie and Carol look like sisters and they play off each other so well. God these variety shows were just on another level and really were special. I'd watch shows like this over reality TV any day!
Two of my all-time favourite performers, in one delightful showcase! I forgot that Maggie Smith wasn't always Downtown Abby...and that Carol wasn't always self-depreciating. And they both still live!!!! Wish I could see them in an update of this delightful number.
Carol Burnett and Dame Maggie Smith sang a duet she also sang with Dame Julie Andrews.Is very amusing and we see why Dame Maggie was an is an excepcional actress who can sing and enjoy herself too.I loved it.
dianavictoria Aljadeff love he one with Julie Andrews! Their performances together are EPIC! Am watching & re-watching them on You Tube! Julie & Carol rocked all their performances! Watch them rap! Love them!
That was the loveliest thing I've seen tonight/this morning. I need to go to bed, but it was worth staying up all night to stumble across Maggie Smith so young. And she still kicking it. 🙌🏾💗😊
maggie smith did a lot of her training in america i think she's been there since the 50's on and off i love this somone needs to dream up a show with these 2 along with julie andrews i don't think i've seen carol burnett in any film that captures how great she is
Class.....wish I was raised in 70s instead of born 1976! Marvelous, clean, witty productions went out long ago. Thank God for videos & great choices to find online to upload these gems. These 2 Ladies are "still truckin'" and looked up to.
I was born in 65, you were still able to experience many great variety shows. I’m just so glad so many of them are available on TH-cam and other venues now. Whenever I’m feeling nostalgic, I can just look up whatever I fancy!
Ms Maggie Smith, you are one of the greatest, fine, top quality talented performer I've seen in my lifetime. I still watch your movies and enjoy watching them. Thanks for your presence in this world.
I miss Carol's show. It was true entertainment. As for Maggie... WOW! I only know her for what she's done the last 20 years. This was fantastic, a real jewel!
I've been a Maggie Smith fan from the day I saw her in "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" in 1969 and have loved Carol Burnett from even before that. The two of them together make a great pair and they're both still around!! How about an encore? Thanks for bringing this clip to my attention; it was delightful!
Wow, bravo to these ladies and lucky for the viewers back then when they witnessed real show of talent without any filters and fake. Those must've been golden years
I was lucky enough to see Maggie Smith in a play in London summer 1974. The play "Snap" (a comedy) wasn't so good, but seeing her in person was a dream come true for me! I've been a fan of hers since I first saw her in the movie "Young Cassidy" with Rod Taylor on TV when I was a kid.
I truly believe Jimmy is just being positive & brings life, laughter to his show. He's gifted himself, hence his own show. He's worked too hard to be just a pathetic sycophant.
Brings back memories. I was just a little kid and my parents had that show on every week. It was good family friendly entertainment but the thing I remember most about those says was that I thought they would last forever. Now Im old...and yet it seems like it wasnt longer ago than a twinkle in a star
Thanks Vod! I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Dame Maggie and her husband do "Private Lives" on the London stage. As you can imagine it was thrill of a lifetime-unforgettable!
That was fun seeing Maggie Smith this young.
Also hot
Check her out in Murder By Death from th 70s or Agatha Christies Evil Under the Sun (from I believe 1980).
@@creatinotionchannel2680, She's also in "Death on The Nile" (1979) when Peter Ustinov played Hercule Poirot.
It feels strange.
Those two are only a year apart in age. They do look like twins though. perhaps that was their aim
Dame Maggie has become so famous for high-end drama roles, we tend to forget she can also do comedy, sing and dance...and does them all magnificently. Thanks for the reminder.
Watch 'Keeping Mum'
She did some comedy in Harry Potter. You can't be too serious to play pretend magic all day for a decade.
You have eloquently articulated precisely why I'm sitting here grinning my face off AND in shock. As witty as I know she is, and an incredible actress of course ... I honestly was unaware of what else she could do in terms of singing theatre. This clip is a new favorite.
Maggie Smith's expressions and sarcasm in Sister Act was also comedic too x3
Ever seen, Murder By Death? Hilarious!
Professor Mcgonagall's voice never changed.
Maggie’s speaking voice is absolutely fantastic. I certainly recognize it but there’s something melodious about her speaking. Absolutely beautiful.
