Obviously a Republican. Didn’t realise until l listened to this broadcast. Part of his charm was that he always appeared none political. He comes across as pretty right wing here.

Mr. Cooke's eloquent statements here stand as one of the best, most sober-minded appraisals of my nation's obscene and continuing gun violence problem. How I wish sensible minds back then had prevailed in the halls of government with the result that there was now such a thing as effective American gun control rather than the present dismal state of affairs with regular mass shootings, attempted assassinations, and inner-city gun battles!

Love this - it's like their Riffing or Jamming off each other!

I think some people on here don't understand this interview - Richard was playing up to Alan, and being the usual BBC interviewer in style. I think a lot of people on here have missed the joke.

Richard gets a bit big for his boots here. The 'youngster ' needs to be put back in his place...at least when talking to a fictional ledge

i've lived in Laos my entire life, and Alan is telling the truth. Monkey Tennis is huge over here. Probably hte most beloved show on television.

But what were his song choices?

I wish this interview had been much longer. I read Queenan’s second book back in the 90s. It was a hoot, especially the chapter about being Mickey Rourke for a day. I liked everything he said in this short interview.

"Monkey Tennis" from Taiwan is now available on KZbin.

I keep coming back to Dave Allen. What an exceptional man he was. May he rest in peace, having helped to make the world a better place. Thank you so much for this video.

Bring back the Old Grey Whistle Test and put Andy in charge😊

11:55 "That's how bad it's got, in my head". Defining the era. Well said, Alan!

"Is it yourself?" I am only going to greet people like this from now on.

The casting director for Badlands, Dianne Crittenden, made an excellent call. Martin WAS right for the part.

Cooke was the 70s gold standard for me of journalism as a teenager.

Not interested in the gab. Where are the tunes?

Alan’s younger brother!?

Treat the auteur theory w great care.

Nothing has changed, FBI and DOJ are politically weaponised

It makes me laugh that the author of he's own books doesn't know when he wrote them. Casino Royale was written in 1952 and published in 1953 . You can forgive him for not remembering that he got married in 1952 and wrote the book to take he's mind of getting married..

‘The second film (From Russia with Love) is now in production…and should be as much of a success as the first (Dr No)...’ In fact, it was far more successful, garnering praise from critics, breaking box-office records and playing to packed houses nationwide. The most popular movie in Britain in 1963 it is generally considered one of the finest Bond films…

Love it

Not one disc played !

2024 still here

my favorite actor growing up, was blown away when i first saw Tommy at age 10

Fleming is holding a Ruger target .22 long rifle pistol , probably his , as he owned one , it is listed in his estate... He was an excellent shot and represented Sandhurst military academy in competitions against West Point...

That was liquid football!

Creo que este disco no aparece en ningún medio porque la voz es de Steve Edwards, el DJ es Charles Webster. debe haber un problema ahí....

0:27 I love how when she said he seems normal communicating his autistic quirks come out with the joke and laugh haha. It’s interesting noticing the little social differences in autistic people since I’ve recently been diagnosed. Imposter syndrome is really real.

What version is this pls?

Big in the back time!

Bacon has a bit of Chris Morris about him in this

Love Denholm Elliot…fantastic actor

Richard Bacon - The BBC always sack the good ones. And now milk the much newly less amusing This Time ...

I heard he punched a prostitute

People like Jean Seberg and Romain Gary live on their own terms but have a big psychological problem when their behavior deprives them of being a center of attention, of understanding, of not being liked or loved, or being accused of being something that their behavior portrayed them to be. Jean was a victim of her own making because she was unable to accept and deal with how her behavior could destroy her life. Gary was a novelist and it was so much more dramatic to say the article brought on miscarriage rather than the truth that her drug abuse did. When Gary himself killed himself sixteen months after Jean his suicide note said it had no relation to Seberg's suicide. Many consider this his novelist's admission in the form of a denial.

RIP Denholm Elliott (1922-1992)

Denholm Elliott was a legend and an icon of the United Kingdom.

Love you Ollie rip xx

The Mackintosh man was filmed in Irelands

An actor of admirable range and sensitivity. A reliable mainstay of many productions whose work is captured for posterity (thank goodness) via the home entertainment industry. What a shame there is not more of this particular programme available for our enjoyment.

HUNTING IS NOT A SPORT. IT IS JUST A COWARDS PLEASURE IN KILLING ANIMALS. KILLING IN INVENTED WARS IS JUST MASS MURDER OF PEOPLE.

1999... Brillant house music.

So deep it hurts❤

So THAT's why Paddy Considine is such a wooden actor....

Wonderful to hear

It’s not

Isn't it lovely how going to Eton gets you into jobs anywhere you fancy... reads like Boris Johnson's easy ride. I notice he didn't mention that 'Mumma' rang her friend Churchill to get him a nice senior job in the Admiralty .... Another thing he got wrong... the honey he said JB had in his breakfast rotation doesn't seem to have even been sold. The little scarlet jam and marmalade are still available excusing the name change on the correct marmalade.

Already wearing the face of heavy drinking.

A real class act.
