I met Steve yesterday (24th Feb 23) he came to my Grandma's funeral. With his mother, after the service he took his mother home and then came to the wake on his own. Spoke to my mum, my aunts 1 by 1 and then my Grandad. It was very wholesome and I appreciated it so much that he did that.
@DonJuanDM yeah, he grew up with my mum and her sisters. His mother was my Grandma's best friend back in Blackley. That was the first time I met him, sad way to meet him but yeah.
@TH-cam Man meh did meet Steve at his Grandma's funeral. I should know, I am the Grandad referred to. During the funeral he was asked to say a few words and did a Ronnie Corbett meets Silvester Stallone skit. My wife would have appreciated it because she loved both of them. Afterwards Steve invited us to his Beverley Hills mansion. He flew us out on his private jet ... I know what you are thinking....
Steve Coogan is so great, he deserves to be more appreciated. For instance I often tell people about Hamlet 2 and they've never even heard of it. That movie should be as famous as Wayne's World.
Meh, I was a huge fan but he's past it. His more famous and celebrated works were written by talented writers. His rants about politics only make him even less funny.
@@6581punkIs it because of the Savile role? Partridge is an eternal classic, and whatever is written for him (and Steve clearly contributes himself), that character is a real, complete personality, and that's all Steve's creation, an amazing achievement.
One of my favourite films witch is coincidental because laurel and Hardy are my favourite comedy duo. Both John Riley and Steve Coogan did a truly remarkable performances of the legendary pair.
I wonder if Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon have seen Netflix's auto-created preview videos for their Trip movies like The Trip To Italy? (The ones that play automatically when you are just browsing.) They are awesome - the artificial intelligence doesn't understand the movies are comedy, so it auto created previews with flowery music and clips that make it seem like they're a gay couple on a romantic holiday, complete with drama and romance. So hysterical. Edit: Looks like only The Trip To Spain is available now, and the music/preview (which comes up on the Apple TV) is more like a serious drama. :-)
@@tomimpala On the Apple TV, first I searched for the movie, then added it to my watchlist so it comes up in the watchlist row. Then I highlighted the thumbnail and the preview auto-plays. I thought it didn't work at first. I updated my comment - only the Trip To Spain is available now.
That is magic, thanks for the heads up. The only one up for me was Spain and seemed more like something new from Focus Features about to brothers going across country for their estranged fathers funeral.
@@hobbit9865 it's a line from The Trip where Steve and Rob Brydon are trading off Michael Caine impressions - can't remember which movie but this was one of the lines they were doing in various infections
His Kinnock impression is spot on. There's a sketch where a Chris Morris is trying to sell The News of the World a cassette of Kinnock abusing a waiter. The first time I heard it I was completely taken in.
Met Steve in Norwich yesterday. I noticed a film crew filming a new Alan Partridge show and Steve was within a few feet away so I went to him to ask for a photo and he said "Sure just make it quick" so I got my phone out thinking it was taken only to realise I didn't actually take the photo 😅
Coogan's got such a lot of talent, a really clever man with some comedy gold (and dramatic performances too). I reckon he will just keep getting better and better like a fine wine.

@@howarddavies7696 Absolutely. Like it is something that comedians do so well at times. The ability to do/say silly things in a silly way soo seemingly naturally or well prepared. Ricky Gervais tried to explain it once. It was about president Obama cracking jokes in speeches i think. Something he referred to as "the timing". Coogan and Atkinson are just soo good at it. It's legendary.

@Fur Q That was just an Alan Partridge skit.
@Fur Q if that's his biggest crime then sounds like a bloody decent guy
Was he wearing a Castrol GTX bomber jacket?
Not many people can actually pull off stallone. His voice is really distinctive but is actually difficult to get perfect and Coogan nailed it.
It always impresses me when someone can do such a spot-on impression of someone who has a completely different accent.
@@WeirdVideoGames Coogan is a master impersonator
I think Brigitte Nielsen did it for a bit 😂
Also, that Stallone impression was actually spot on
He does a good Arnold too
And his Ronnie Corbett wasn't?
Really good !
@@Nautilus1972 Brydon's Corbet is better for sure
Steve's wonderful as is Graham's show and all the guests.
That was by far the best Stallone I’ve ever heard
Even better than Jim Carry did?
I've heard a lot better actually
@@EtsiJuuret Jim Carry's impressions are caricatures. They don't actually sound like the person really.
@@APRICEPRODUCTION Maybe from professional impressionists that do that full time. Coogan is a comedian who happens to do great impressions.
Carter Mahoney It is
He’s an underappreciated genius!
So am I.
@@sstills951 w⚓.
Dont necessarily like the man, however I concede he is a fine actor and of course a brilliant impersonator.

Happened to me last week... now I’m back for more... there’s no cure 😂
May it never end. Coogan is so damn funny.
Just relax and let yourself go, its ok.. really. Sleep, no shhhh sleep, thats it 👥
Wow! That is probably one of the most genius impressions I have ever heard. Stallone and Alan Bennett. Brilliant!
If you shut your eyes it feels like Ronnie Corbett is in the room, chills.
I just love what a good time John C. Reilly is having 😂
Yeah he showed a lot of class, I can't imagine he has a clue who Ronnie Corbett is
@@dzonbrodi514 If you listen carefully he says he watched the Two Ronnies.
@@dzonbrodi514 He’s watched The Two Ronnie’s
@@dzonbrodi514no chance. Every comedian (even unfunny man child ones) will know the two Ronnie's.
@@thatoneguychad420 I bet you are British
Love, love, love when skilled mimics play two impersonations off of one another. Been a rare thing for too long.
I remember being on Sainsbury’s one day and bumping into Steve, we actually stood and compared impressions for 15 minutes! Great man, great times
Lies.

No wonder. That movie made $5m globally.
He threw his whole body into the Stallone impression...fantastic!
Stan and Ollie is a great film, both were superb, a truly moving tribute to the greatest double act ever
Whenever i see Steve Coogan ....it makes me wanna rewatch tropic thunder .....he is so hilarious and so is the entire film
R.I.P Ronnie Corbett.
The little big legend.
Both Ronnie's gone now. Never to be replaced.
I always forget that he's no longer with us ☹️
@CD Smith ...and now, it's goodnight from the both of us.
RIP indeed. Coogan’s impression of him here was pretty weak frankly.
RIP Steve Coogan. Then again, maybe he was always insufferably woke.
Criminally underrated comedian.
Actually think he is rated quite highly, Alan partridge is genius.
@@jimbob8992 Ricky Gervais doesn't seem to acknowledge it but I think David Brent was largely a rip-off of Alan Partridge.
Personally i thought the impersonations were pretty awful
@@jimbob8992 I wish Steve would walk up to Ricky and say
_"Smell my cheese, you Mother"_
no way he's had a big career. hugely successful
I know Alan Bennet in person.I see him around often with his lovely partner.They are both lovely people.
Probably one of the more authentic impressions ever done.
Steve Coogan is a British treasure. What a weird and funny mind this man has.
Well the EU are welcome to him. (Is that the correct pronoun?)
@@hermanmunster3358 I can smell gammon
Jeremy Corbyn agrees.
LOL!
@@sneer0101 I smell bitterness. And barely contained hysteria.
Never met him but I know people who have met and worked with him and who tell me he's really not a very nice man.
Stallone and Bennett . . usual Coogan genius, lemon puffs 😆
I want Sarah to be a regular on the show. Just, you know, laughing her adorable laugh in the background 😍😍😍
O thank you. She's too look at me
We need more of Steve Coogan doing anything.
My old Dad saw Alan Partridge and grumbled about slipping standards at the BBC. Still chuckle at the memory.. :)
Same! My old dad saw KMKY and didn't realise it was a parody. Long time ago now, and it was only episode 1
i adore him, so clever funny and talented and insightful.
What brilliant concepts he comes up with, Sylvester Stallone and Alan Bennet, fantastic!
1:50 for our American cousins, yes; over here in Britain & Ireland we actually have biscuits (cookies) called Lemon Puffs and Happy Faces
Sliced Alone... He does a fantastic sliced alone; it's honestly the best there is out there.
Is this spelling a reference to something?
Luxury Boosh:
1:20
Sliced Alone that's bloody fantastic
That is going to be such a good show tonight. Great guest list and Graham always brings out the best in them.
His Alan Partridge impression is probably the best I have ever seen any do, but Steve Coogan is so good, its like Alan is really there.
Laurel and Hardy was a beautiful film, he did brilliant
One of my favourite films witch is coincidental because laurel and Hardy are my favourite comedy duo.
Both John Riley and Steve Coogan did a truly remarkable performances of the legendary pair.
HIs Stallone impression is better than Stallone's impression of himself.
His Stallone impression caught me off guard the first. The voice just doesn’t match his appearance and that is genius lol
Another man who's slipped into legend without us really noticing.
I used to only be able to see him as alan partridge . Now I will only be able to see him as stan laurel .
Steve Coogan's comedic ability is very underrated.
Is it? I think he gets a lot of credit for his comedy
Maybe in the UK, but in the U.S. he sort of flies under the radar.
In the UK if you know your comedy everyone has him as a legend and genius. Yeah in US hes unknown but not really surprising
Fantastic impression of Ronnie Corbett, but I can't believe he asked if anyone remembered him!!!!!
How can you not love Steve Coogan
Steve Coogan must be one of the best all round talents this country has produced.Ever.

@@nullunit Yeah, that's what I found as well when I went and re-checked. I'm not sure if I'm mis-remembering or if Netflix removed the other movies.
Best Stallone ever.
Steve Coogan is fantastic in all he does .
Steve's portrayal of Jimmy Saville was eerily haunting. Absolutely brilliantly actor.
Yeah, not the easiest watch for a Coogan fan.. bloody haunting
Amazing talent
Rob Brydon does the best Ronnie Corbett impression then again he's had practice opportunities in practically every episode of WILTY ever
Probably because it's the only impression he can do. One trick pony.
Rob's Ronnie is the best 👓
she was only sixteen years old
sixteen

Blown away by these two .Magical performance .xxxx
That Ronnie Corbett was spot on. I couldn't tell the difference.
Brilliant Coogan, vastly underrated the guys is a superb actor and mimic
That Stallone impression was better than Stallone himself
Coogan is one of the most underrated actors around!
Brilliance, sheer brilliance !
Indeed. His impression of an actor is the best I ever saw.
Steve Coogan was one of the main voices of Spitting Image
Crikey that Stallone impression was bang on.
He, Enfield and Chris Barrie were the backbone of Spitting Image. Granted that nobody could get Thatcher quite like Steve Nallon did.....
Met Steve in Norwich yesterday.
I noticed a film crew filming a new Alan Partridge show and Steve was within a few feet away so I went to him to ask for a photo and he said "Sure just make it quick" so I got my phone out thinking it was taken only to realise I didn't actually take the photo 😅
He was brilliant in Stan and Ollie.
Imagine if Stallone and Coogan were pedalling films at the same time and had a Slyoff on the couch.
His Alan Bennett was uncanny 👍
Coogan's got such a lot of talent, a really clever man with some comedy gold (and dramatic performances too). I reckon he will just keep getting better and better like a fine wine.

Jesus, what a panel. I want to watch this whole episode.
It was perfect casting for both of them.
He was a regular on Spitting Image. Impersonations were his BUSINESS.
Steve coogan is awesome. Hamlet 2 is an underrated gem. See it yesterday!
Met Coogan as an extra on his film Ideal Home. Glad he's getting more recognition stateside.
You can see John O Reilly was still happy to be with Steve well after filming of Stan & Ollie has finished.
It would be great if they do more work together. Maybe they'll go on tour doing a vaudeville show.

Perfect Ronnie Corbett......amazing

@@howarddavies7696 It's late ehre when i write thisXD. And no i am not using the word again or telling the world.
I believe that his greatest impression was that of Albert Steptoe as performed on The Trip. "Don't leave me, Harold!"
A great moment in history. Some excellent work was done on Steptoe and Son.
The bit of Irish!
LOOOOVE Steve Coogan 💖💖 Especially in Philomena.
Still can’t believe that Steve Coogan voices Ramsbottom in Despicable Me. That’s just insane. Steve is a talented actor and great impressionists
It's all in the contrast. Brilliant.
Why does he feel like he Will be perfect for a new Doctor Who
Coogan could've played Doctor Who at one time.
TM Martin definetly
I agree and, weirdly, Richard E Grant on the other end of the sofa did :)
Just Vin he did in scream of the shalka
If only it were this time!
Coogan for Doctor who. definitely, listen up producers!
If you thought that Stallone was good, wait until you hear his Michael Caine!
My cocaine
Whoah, I never knew Stallone does impressions too!
He started in 'Spitting Image' so many light years ago now
His impersonations are f..... g brilliant.
I still think Rob Brydon can do a better Ronnie Corbett
Sarah's laugh is blessing my life
I love his voice. The Reckoning was a brilliant show
absolute talent steve coogan
That was a great alan Bennett impression
Ronnie corbett was on point! It's quite trippy to watch corbett's voice on Steve Coogan's face 🤣🤣
@Simple
Almost as good as Rob Brydon's Corbett.
Graham for oscars
The Music Arena that would be amazing!!!
Not a chance
Great Irish presenter 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇪🇺
Your.
Self.
"does anyone remember Ronnie Corbett?" what the hell??!!
So you do? 😂
My brain automatically read the the title of this video in Graham Norton’s voice.
I just read your comment in his voice just now. In fact it's still happening as I write this reply to your comment now. Time for a break methinks.
I had the pleasure of having dinner in London with Ronnie Corbett, lovely man
Awesome talent
Just so talented this guy
Most of the original spitting image cast were so talented.
This is the best talk show ever
Steve Coogan nearly always makes me laugh
Love him! God Bless Steve Coogan! Made me laugh so much when he did Stallone!!! Oh and he looks like Christopher Lee too!!
OMG he does too, great spot
I love his hair here!!! 🥰
Thanks for posting.
Coogan has some good impressions.
I grew up with his movies and I have seen a lot but that was the best
