Rich has come back from his holiday for this and why wouldn’t he? But will his guest turn up this time? The bad news, if he doesn’t, is that Nish Kumar is ill... there’s no jeopardy here, obviously he turns up or there’d be no podcast. The guest is the fantastic UFOologist Michael Sheen.
The pair discuss why the best bit has been missed out of the new War of the Worlds, how Michael would get inside Richard, finding out you’re not in a film when you get to the premiere, the big questions raised by the film Passengers and whether its worth having a robot with no downstairs, a missed Pointless opportunity and an audacious quiz show plan and what motivated Sheen’s decision to reconnect with his childhood home of Port Talbot. It’s funny, interesting with a strong homoerotic charge. Plus they talk about Tron. What more do you want?

“I don’t wanna play myself, that would be awful”
Staged: Allow me to introduce myself
"He's the Scottish you." Absolutely brilliant.
Isn't he Welsh?
@@jimmyholloway8527 Michael Sheen is Welsh but I believe Richard was referring to someone else. Can't recall who but it's probably David Tennant who is Scottish. 🙂
Yeah, they both did something with "War of the Worlds" as Ty Tennant did with this modern set series, where he is playing a grumpy teenager...@@Elwaves2925
21:17 "And he's (David Tennant) my lover!"
omg, Michaellll
Which minute did he said that?
Absolutely brilliant!!😆😆🤣🤣
@@brendaamador7770 20:59 to 21:23.
I threw my phone down on my bed and screamed out "aaaaand I'm dead!" ❤❤🤣🤣🤣
Oh lovely! Lovely! ☺️
We'll never get tired of you, Michael Sheen. ❤ Ooh - maybe he'd be willing to do Taskmaster since he has such a fondness for British game shows and his fellow Welshmen...
trying to get him back on!
@@Herring1967 You seemed to really click with him - I'll keep my peepers peeled. I'm enjoying your back catalogue and more recent episodes now that I've staggered upon your channel. 👍
That would be a dream come true
Always liked Michael Sheen but hadn't realised he was this amazing.
He's so clever, I love that Airplane mode joke
Just some of my favorite time stamps

37:18 ----- becoming Richard
46:17 ----- what's your biggest weakness?

51:14 54:50 ---- on every British quiz show but in a different disguise each time

Michael seems to be the guest that was happiest to be there
Agreed!!!!
H2BH
All Welsh people are happy!
HE DID THE AZIRAPHALE VOICE FOR ‘AND HES MY LOVER’ MICHAEL SHEEN PLS
He knows us so well!
@@helenl3193 awesome! Sheen rules.
Finally he's on. You gotta love Michael Sheen. Such a fantastic and down to earth person with a great sense of humour. He can also act. I'm really looking forward to this.
He’s cooler than Cumberbatch in my book!!
What a treat! I wish it had been 20 hours long... Michael is such a lovely man and so entertaining. Their rapport was great. Roll on Great Omens 3!!!
What a fine yarn-spinner Michael is. Among the best RHLSTP interviewees.
This was just wonderful. Funny how 80 minutes still isn't nearly enough, yet we used to settle for 20 minutes on Wogan. Bless you for all of these, Mr. Herring.
I saw Kingdom of Heaven as part of my uni course and we all said pretty angrily “WHATS THE POINT OF HIRING MICHAEL SHEEN IF HES IN IT FOR TWO MINUTES?!”
I think i’ve just listened to this episode for the third time.
Sheen is pretty much always a delight, and the Sheen/Herring double act is irresistible.
I'm with you Richard - no way anyone can not be in love with Michael Sheen. Literally impossible!
David Tennant for the next series? They are, after all, a pair not to be seperated now ;)
What a bloody awesome bloke. This was great fun.
Okay, gonna have to agree with the comments that say this is one of the best episodes. I've never really known much about Michael Sheen, so thanks once again to Richard for giving me a great insight into someone truly interesting that I might otherwise have missed out on.
Agreed!!
I love that it's not "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe", but Port Talbot is the "Lil' Chef of the Galaxy".
I know why you have a man crush on him Rich because he's absolutely charming. Loved watching you two enjoying each others company.☺️
Michael Sheen's comments on UFOs MADE THE RADIO 4 NEWS THIS MORNING!
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT, DAI?" 😂
I have never clicked on a TH-cam notification so quickly
After listening to this, I was listening to BBC radio Nottingham, they talked about something from the interview. Mr Sheen saw a UFO! Didn't mention his community work or anything he said about his home town. Didn't even mention RHLSTP (RHLSTP) - ANGERY!
Herring fans know this is where the gold dust is. Keep up your amazing work Rich 😁😁😁
I love the fact that this was taped before there was such a thing as Good Omens 2 and now we are months past it and still collectively heartbroken.
Michael Sheen is just a decent man. Through and through.
The mention of Pointless Celebrities gave me an "ooh". The episode with Michael Sheen and Steve Pemburton was on the other day. They did indeed win, with a pointless answer in the final round.
Is your picture thing lego Richard Herring
@@MannyJazzcats Nah, a lego me. A lazy one at that, just painted over a Lego Aragorn.
Love Michael Sheen such a great actor,never forget him portraying a person with OCD in a drama dealing with mental health issues,he was bloody brilliant.Such humanity and from what I know does so much to engage with social issues especially where he is from in Wales such as youth homelessness.So down to earth and unaffected by his great success and fame.
Michael: “I don’t know if you’ve heard of the Velvet Underground-“
Me: “oh. Bebop.” 😒
Same.
I have to adjust my Top 10 list of RHLSTPs. What a great guest!
Michael is Brilliant
And so down to earth.....watching Tipping Point 😂😂😂
What a great guest and straight in to my top five (maybe even top three). Please make sure that you get the estimable Mr Sheen back!
Ohhh yes.
One of the best RHLSTP's yet.
Well worth the wait >> what a wonderful guest and fantastic human being.
One of your best yet, this is legendary, excellent rapport and funny, thank you both!
I've rejoined RHLSTP (RHLSTP!) late with Michael Sheen. What a great one! Looking forward to going through the ones I've missed.
“I think Port Talbot is some kinda hub… What the f**ck is that Dau?!!!” 😂
Michael Sheen! aw, how lovely. I caught him on that Pointless. Steve Pemberton is like a Rain Man on that show. Well done fella's! (Sheen & Pemberton). Well done to Richard Herring too for his courage in fashion.
Michael also predicted he'd win Pointless. Richard should have taken him up on his offer.
Steve Pemberton is an actual genius, I’m sure.
This is beyond gold.
I watched just a fragment and it was totally worthwile (the "he is my lover" Omg!! 🤣🤣🤣) so thanks for the whole interview (that I will watch after I get some sleep, as Mr Sheen deserves my full attention and concentration😍💖💖)
Sheen ..what a fantastic guest, good chemistry between them, it has to be said, superb episode
TIME BANDITS YEAH...fantastic film
surely michael sheen is one of the nicest actors in britain? always comes across as so genuine and friendly
also JUST finding out that him and adam buxton could have potentially been on a pointless team together makes me so sad bc i love them both so much
Fantastic interview.
Omg this is so good. My face hurts from smiling and laughing for an hour and 22 mins lol.
01:31 Love the lights behind the stage set. Looks really good now.
My favorite member of the Sheen family, it's then Charlie and Mr Sheen... in that order.
Shifts, shields and shines in sheconds.
Barry was my favorite
¿Quieres decir los actores Sheen? Ellos no son sus familiares. Nada que ver con ellos. Martin Sheen y Charlie Sheen son de US, Michael Sheen es Galés
@@m.patriciarasconesparza5816 Sorry, I can only speak Englais but er... I think the answer is, no relation I was just joking 😅
@@speedrob oh ok jaja
God, this is terrific - thanks, Richard.
An hour and 22 minutes? Still not long enough. Great stuff.
Ah I love Michael. Especially on 30 Rock. But in general, also. Great episode thanks Richard
Michael, did you just give me a glimmer of hope for another season of Omens? Sir, how dare you!
How are you doing after S2?
Fist of fun had a profound effect on me!
I love when he acts flirty, especially with the men. He’s so funny.
This is an example where the longer format chat works exceptionally well. It would never get made on the short-attention span main TV channels because they think that viewers wouldn't stick with it in enough numbers. They may be right but that just means that these shows can sit in a corner of the web where the intelligent people are.
Thanks to Richard and Michael for a great show.
Michael dragging Passengers is a mood.
And I love the fact that it seems he left home in a rush and put on the first things he could find, I mean, that most of the time he does not seem to care a lot about the way he looks or is dressed. I other people I usually find that a bit annoying, but in his case he could have just dressed as Mrs Robinson 🤣and I would have looooved that 😍💖 cause he is talented, clever, adorable and seems to be totally down to earth, as opposed to the "look, I am a celebrity and I am above all of you" attitude that some celebrities have.
The pride I felt though, when he walked on stage.
I'm keep replaying 21:17
same
and my hands are sweating
Hello Richard Herring,
I'm writing this very formally because it's a big deal to me. I'm 30 years old. I've been absolutely enamoured with comedy since I was a bored little kid in a council house in Wheathampstead with nothing to do but watch cable TV. I was seldom supervised and mainly watched Live TV, play UK, Bravo, Paramount and MTV. Comedy, music and literature have always been my closest companions.
While the neglect I suffered has brought on long-term negative consequences for me emotionally, it also imbued a sense of intellectual freedom and autonomy that most people aren't afforded at a young age. Anyway, I first came across you on This Morning With Richard Not Judy, and ever since I've felt a fairly intense yet inexplicable sense of disdain for you. (Stick with me, this gets better)
Acquaintances I've had throughout the years have always expressed surprise that I'm not a fan of yours. I've been massively into Stewart Lee ever since he went solo (I promise, the pay off is coming...) and have always thought of him as some kind of genius.
So, I found RLSTP a couple of years ago and started watching it and enjoying it. I put this down to the quality of the guests you have on the show rather than anything to do with you. I then got really into it and decided you were just okay. Around this time I got a job as the manager of The Waffle House in St Albans where I served you and wanted to say, "You're Richard Herring" but restrained myself. By this point, I wouldn't say I disliked you anymore.
When I watched your interview with Matt Lucas, I realised that you are, in fact, the genius. Stewart Lee is a whinging manboy whose negative perceptions of everyone and everything don't do anything for anyone. He's actually just a bit of a bastard, wielding his intellect like some kind of phallic symbol.
Hearing the way you speak to Lucas; the mutual respect and admiration between the two of you, was illuminating. The honesty and unbridled, raw emotion that you display and encourage in all of your guests, not just Lucas, is inspirational and moving. You're deeply intelligent and give an insight into the work you do with a DIY style that I am sure will encourage countless people to follow their dreams. I probably liked you all along but was blindsided by how open you are. I struggle to be open, myself, so maybe I was jealous? Who knows. I thought I disliked Sara Pascoe too but that was definitely jealousy...
I've stopped working as a restaurant manager now and begun a career writing professionally, which is going unbelievably well. I never thought that someone like me could follow my dreams, but here I am. I wanted to say thank you for making me challenge myself and for showing me how to be open and the importance of hard work. I'm going to publish my first novel next year and don't think I'd be in this place if it weren't for you.
It seems like a million people have developed a similar podcast to you, celebrities interviewing other celebrities etc. None of them (except maybe Adam Buxton) are as moving or sapient as yours. In the long run - in the annuls of history - I believe that you'll be the one out of you and Stewart who is remembered and revered.
All the very best
Imogen
Thanks Imogen. Good luck with the novel and thanks for the nice waffles (on my birthday if I remember correctly). Glad you've come round to me eventually. You will doubtless find out that people have passionate and opposing views on your work, but it's always pleasing when someone who didn't get you later gets you. Our hearts and minds are ever changing (or should be in an ideal world). I appreciate you writing to let me know.
@@Herring1967 I didn't know it was your birthday, congratulations for existing for a round number of years! Thank you for your reply. Maturity and perspective are big contributing factors in my slow-burning appreciation for you, I'm fairly certain. I do hope that one day I'm in a position where someone who questions my work can then go on to decide it's some of the best they've seen later on.
Aye, admitting to a change of heart or mind is the only way we carry on growing. I'm going to come and see you in Glasgow next month because I put my money where my mouth is :D
@@johntaylor8463 Yeah, exactly. I think he had a difficult childhood and he's not let go of the sadness. Probably why I could relate to him as a young person.
Still, no excuse for flapping his ego around like a gigantic misshapen cock. We can think we're amazing without the need to put other people down. In the age of Donald Trump and Bojo the clown, we need to be more careful with our intentions.
@@Herring1967 Fantastic reply to a heartfelt comment Richard. Thanks also for one of the truly exceptional episodes of RHLSTP. This is definitely up there with my other favourites (Mark Gatiss and multiple episodes of both Adam Buxton and David Mitchell). P.s. your Bagpuss line in the Mark Gatiss episode may be my favourite comic line of all time! I'm a very happy Pusser Plus Plus!
Oh and of course, Miriann Margolyes....sublime.
Brilliant what a nice chap
I like to imagine that Michael and Richard became best of friends after this
Michael Sheen as the next Doctor! He'd be amazing.
Proper legend.
What a lovely bloke.
Brilliant.
Nice vibe between you two in this, Herring. Sheen seems like someone most people could easily be mates with. Charming person.
I love his giggle.
I suspected Sheen was a top chap, this confirms it - thank you Richard!
Richard must be one of the most well known comedians among comedians he’s interviewed that many, shame he hasn’t got the recognition
Michael Sheen has poise!
Fantastic!
He was brilliant on the Radcliffe and Maconie show the other day so I’m not surprised to hear him talking about Laurie Anderson
Oohh Michael...💖
This is good 😊
Damned United, and 30 Rock, love this fella!
This was gold.
What a lovely fella.
Much better lighting!
The one I would have paid good money to see:
Richard and Paul Daniels.
There must be other old comics/TV personalities it would be interesting to hear from.
Hale and Pace?
what a genuine fuckin awesome man i just knew i was gonna watch this all the way through
Airplane mode 😂
I was dying at that one!! That's the kind of silly humor I adore! 🤣😍
Oh. Bebop.
😂
👼
I appreciate him just keysmashing in place of pronouncing the town name
Michael Sheen needs to be cloned.
I just realized that I have the same shoe brand as a Michael Sheen. Cumberbatch also wears the same. 😂 Blundstones! All of Canada wears em.
When he's on next talk to him about narrating The Book of Dust !
I love this silly man.
Love the everton mint cosplay
Port talbot. Portal bot. Bot portal. Robots basically aliens. All the clues are there
Or, as Rob Brydon has pointed out, the locals pronounce it like "poor tall butt".
So it's a lofty arse with no cash.
Which does weirdly kind of sum up the place pretty well, actually.
I wanna see part 2 where they spend two hours talking about nothing but Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds. Not joking I would watch the hell out of that!
21:00 PS I just checked, The War of the Worlds Audiobook is being narrated by David Harewood, not David Tennant. Don't worry, Michael, your lover did not keep anything from you ;-)
Fantastic interview Richard!
You didn’t check very hard attheendoftheworldisabook.com/2022/02/11/%F0%9F%8E%A7war-of-the-worlds-by-h-g-wells-narrated-by-david-tennant/
@@Herring1967 Wow! Strangely enough that version is not available on my Audible, even though I am in UK/Ireland. I am so upset! I would love to listen to it narrated by David Tennant. 😭Welp, I take back what I said. I can only see Greg Wagland's and Dave Harewood's version, and obviously the Musical Drama with Michael (which started it already) Will write a strongly worded letter to Amazon and use your link as leverage, thanks mate!
@@OneRandomLeo Pretty sure I heard it on audible. I don't know where else I would have got it from
While watching this I've wanted to hug Michael, touch his curls, and I just want to pinch his cheek.
When I met Michael, I made an absolute tit out of myself despite (or maybe because of) the preparations in my head but he WAS absolutely lovely despite being stressed af and I did get more than just an "oh thanks" so pro: top man, and I can relate con: I always cringe when I remember the absolute verbal diarrhea I spewed. Hope I'll be able to make it up one day - prefferably when I'm not a nervous oddball.
Thank you so, so much for this brilliant session, for letting him tell his stories, for your brilliant questions - I do so enjoy your style of "interview", and long may it reign
Aziraphale plays a Welsh actor quite well.
The loading wheel keeps turning, but no video. Taken down again?
YAY, finally visible after two days. Bandwidth anybody?
hey, i'm listening to war of the worlds now and michaels character learns to ride a bike about 6 minutes in!
Wish there'd been a question about Dirty Filthy Love, but then I have OCD.
When was this recorded?
around June I think
Did you know 26 RHLSTP guests have been on taskmaster plus the hosts!
Thats unfair.
That's only really because they both use a lot of stand ups, so there's bound to be a lot of crossover.
Although, because you've mentioned it, I now want Michael Sheen on Taskmaster. He'd be excellent and I think he'd be up for it if they can get the schedule sorted out.
@@lwaves and he did say he can do what he wants now
Adorable!
Only a few seconds in but I hope he mentions playing Jeremy Dyson in TLOGA 😂 ...
so is no one going to mention the 'velvet underground' at 11:55 ? (my good omens loving brain was like OMG)
Spoiler
Lori Anderson, War of the World ,David Lynch same for me. It was the B'52's for me.
