Scenes with Alan Rickman. Plots and Proposals

[@susanmoran5226]

Alan Rickman , Pete Postlewaite, Geradine Mc kewan and of course Victoria . Talent like that would be hard to replace. May they all rest in peace.

[@granmut]

Alan Rickman and the comedy writing of the late Victoria Wood!!! R.I.P. to both of them, irreplaceable.

[@susanmoran5226]

Dont forget Pete Postlewaite.

[@susanmoran5226]

Dont forget Pete Postlewaite. And Geraldine Mc Kewan .

[@charliewilliams7443]

Genius writer. Genius performers. We were privileged to have the talent of VW in our telly boxes.

[@rowenaharris9158]

The best ever combination. R.I.P to Alan and Victoria🇳🇿❣️

[@kittyowlblu]

I've never seen this before, such genius. The amount of Top Notch British Actors that Victoria Wood could summon at any given moment to appear in her parodies etc is just a testiment to how bloody good she was! RIP Victoria you were a Legend!

[@tejaswoman]

Even the outfits look as if they went straight to the set of _Sense and Sensibility_ and borrowed all the clothes.

[@Icha74]

I miss you so, Alan Rickman... thank you for the beautiful voice, smile, you... thank you for the beautiful you...

[@longtail4711]

I don't think I'll ever stop missing him for the rest of my life. :(

[@kuabci]

I don't really understand how someone can miss someone they didn't see in their daily life or even at all personally, especially when you can basically visit him every single day. I just did by watching this video I had never seen before. I get that it's sad when someone passes away, but actors don't usually have much impact on our day-to-day.

[@clockwork9827]

kuabci Yup, true. but he was one of a kind, to watch

[@mariamalktifan5704]

Icha74 I love alan rickman

[@hockeywifeca]

Hmm. In reference to the "Delores Umbridge" comments, it might surprise our American friends to know that the only real unknowns in the Harry Potter movies were the leads. They were supported by a well seasoned and brilliant cast of English actors.

[@hortondlfn1994]

This American wasn't surprised at all. Then again, I'm a bit of an anglophile.

[@mckavitt13]

@@hortondlfn1994 Nor I. Plus I knew the Brits better myself as I'm a HUGE Anglophile.

[@susanmoran5226]

And they did very well. I prefer the books, but the Harry Potter movies were classic. .

[@kittyowlblu]

Considering many of Victoria's favourite friends who appeared in most of her plays and skits were in Harry Potter, I always thought it would have been lovely if she had been invited to appear in at least one of the movies as a painting or something.

[@JordanVanRyn]

I came across this video and I already miss Alan Rickman. He was a wonderful talented man.

[@michaelritchie2968]

The amount of talent in this. She got anyone she wanted to work with her! Apparently if you ever got a note or email saying "Victoria Wood would like...", you didn't bother reading anymore, you just agreed to it. I know I would have.

[@roselizabeths]

"Miss Tweed. I can't think you and I have any reason for bandage." "...Badinage." 😂

[@mistersaul]

The biscuit moment is just genius

[@StargazerNorth1]

You can see the rest of them dying inside. Fair play to Delia for sending herself up so gamely!

[@darrenc2721]

@@StargazerNorth1 she actually does this in another sketch too! I just cant remember which one. found it, another victoria wood parody scrooge! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpiwk6SZgL-AZrs

[@queenbeekeeper]

Watching this video late at night because I can't sleep is certainly better than a slap in the La-las with an antique mangel! I can be assured soon, sleep will not escape the junket pot!

[@TheMoonlight2887]

Who's the stupid alien who DIDN'T LIKE this video????? I'm an ADDICT!!!! I could listen to Mr. Alan Sexy Rickman reciting the phonebook or watch a video of him just staring blankly out of the window for hours.... I definately need to stop doing this, every time I watch his videos or listen to his voice my heart beats soooooo damn fast that I'm surely having a failure one of these days...... But well, I'll have a happy depart from this world..... Awwwwwwhhhhh, Mr. Rickman..... I LOVE YOU.........

[@Liesebieke1977]

The third and last project in which Alan Rickman & Geraldine McEwan play together. She's so talented, I can't believe she has only received one award in her entire career (according to IMDB that is)!

[@jucklowe]

Geraldine McEwan was so wonderful,,,, from "Oranges Aren't the only Fruit" through Red Dwarf and this gem.

[@a697ag]

Best Miss Marple ever!

[@rnw2739]

Superb as the evil sadist, Sister Bridget in 'The Magdalene Sisters'.

Let us not forget "Mulberry"!

Farewell Victoria Wood.

I will love ALAN forever,😍 Rip sir

[@chatty5xg]

That comedic timing is everything my gaaad! LMAO its hilarious

[@spmoran4703]

Thus Victoria Wood made Charles Dickens, Jane Austin , The Bronte sisters , Mrs Gaskell. Laugh so much they rolled I their graves. It's very funny.

[@mandocool]

Wish this was longer

[@yvonnemiles7633]

I could imagine them all having fun playing this spoof on a period drama! I’ve never seen this before!.

[@txmeerkat]

Words cannot describe how much I love this!

[@TheMoonlight2887]

Imelda Staunton is being so Mrs. Palmer, yet again!! 8D

[@Spacetwerp]

It's too scary that so many viewers of this brilliant parody, those who didn't grow up with the humour of Victoria Wood's comic genius, can only visualise British actors such as Imelda Staunton in one role she played,ie Dolorus Umbridge. Rickman is seen as doing himself down, by the same crowd, because he was in Die Hard etc and in this he's romping around in high camp. America has never had the rep theatre system, so for one writer to have her own couterie of friends who'd drop everything at a moment's notice to appear in her "next big thing" is a step too far for them to understand. Tough titties! We get it and we love it. This will stand as a testament to the brilliance of all concerned. 💖

You know the man who just died suddenly could have been saved if he had a dose of Alan Rickman. He's like a box of Kittens only more attractive and far cuter! :3

[@78rikkers]

Wonderful, wonderful stuff. Miss Tweed ftw. 'Can't you stick your hands in your muff?' RIP Pete.

[@trevorbrown6654]

Richard E Grant had to turn down the role of the Sherriff on Nottingham in Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves before Rickman was offered it. So it's interesting to see them both in the same scene here.

[@murraykins1952]

Wood and McKewan knock the rest of the cast off the set ...........Fantastic

[@CriticalListener]

@DiamondzR4Eva100, she says, "That's better than a slap in the la-las with an antique mangle, is it not?" A mangle is a double roller device for squeezing water out of clothing. (Think of an old antique washing machine from 80 years ago, the heavy rollers--that's the mangle.) And yes, it would really hurt to get whacked by one of those, yes it would.

[@bobbeorn]

Or a mangle-wurzel i.e. a turnip. They go woody when old. Either one would make your eyes water.

[@naly202]

everyone talks about Alan Rickman. what about Imelda Staunton (UMBRIDGE)? she's very funny in this one

[@nessagirl1911]

It' Prof. Umbridge! And Mortianna the witch from Robin Hood: King of thieves!

[@emolypse123]

around 1:00 it looks like Delores Umbridge.LOL!i notice that they use the cast that was with Alan before the HP movies.

[@ianmiller2349]

BANDAGE

[@JDNightGhobhadi]

LOL Alan's sidekick reminds me of the Beadle from the 2007 revial cast stage production of Sweeney Todd, not the movie (though sorta looks like Stan Shunpike) and come to think of it Alan looks like Judge Turpin, though younger. So we have Beadle Bamford and Judge Turpin :)

[@claireverdoorn2474]

The set reminds me of the house in Emma with Romola Garai. Could it be the same house?

[@rozziebrown]

I thought the same, I think it is!

[@T0xicCupcakes]

How come prof. umbridge always has to be in these kinds of movies?I think she also played in Sense and Sensebility.

[@SchneesturmWarrior]

Hey I´m the 100th who says: thumps up! It´s verry good!

[@CriticalListener]
