[@Raccnnibal]

2D Yeah XDDD

[@vernorexia682]

Sober Murdoc was the best way to describe it XD

[@stepha7102]

I wish he could be like that for once. He could stop abusing you.

[@TrenchMan93]

OF COURSE FACE ACHE!!

[@annabanana8700]

I had my eyes closed the whole video so I could picture Murdoc talking😂

[@madamemariposa]

I kept hearing Murdoc Niccals the whole vídeo.

He keeps on slipping into Murdoc voice 🌚

[@COSMICIGUANA]

Phil Cornwell - what a legend. Love this guy. Love Stella Street - one of the funniest comedy shows ever. John greatly missed.

[@shakinpaulus1]

Stella Street was one of the funniest things ever. Pure genius.

[@Monkofmagnesia]

Love him as Murdoc in the Gorillaz. In fact, as much as I like the Gorillaz, I love Murdoc in the cartoons and interviews even more.

[@jogon7914]

One of the nicest, most down-to-earth and properly genuinely talented people who work in the industry. Great interview

[@loopiline5361]

It's Murdoc! 💞

[@M1STYWORLD]

I love this guy he has given me so much laughter

[@smoath]

"still talk fondly of it" Yeah mate, I'm still re-watching stella street 9 years after this interview

[@thomasbryan6796]

Phil Cornwell is a joyous man! I love Stella street so much!

[@DizGuys]

I still absolutely LOVE Stella Street. A true gem!

[@drg111yt]

Thank you. Genius accents, Phil and John Sessions RIP deserve Oscars for their impressions in Stella Street, one of my favorite programmes.

[@trickymicky0007]

i met Phil in Basildon-a proper decent bloke-no ego-plenty of humility-and love everything Phil has done-my children loved him in king stupid:-}

[@BROADTRAIN1979]

Phil Cornwell is a superb talented man, love him to bits in the stella street set and movie, just fantastic!!! Shame there werent a series four!!

[@bensonrad]

There was a Series 4

[@pjr1966007]

Absolutely loved Gilbert! The highlight of my Saturday mornings was Phil Cornwell's hilarious and subversive sense of improvisation. How lucky we were to have something so edgy on a predominantly kids TV show.

[@fraserkatie]

I love Phil Cornwell!! I have an autograph off him when I met him at a recording of Dead Ringers and fondly remember Gilbert!!! Gilbert was one of my favourite childhood characters!!!

[@GaiaMediaIndustries]

Phil's impressions are amazingly funny and accurate, never understood why we didn't see a lot more of him on TV.

[@MegaGordyboy]

his mick jagger in stella street was the funniest character in just about anything iv ever seen.

[@ScrotusXL]

Give Gilbert The Alien a knighthood. This man is so underrated and so talented and part of my childhood and now I’m 52! Lol 😂

[@MrBuntudor]

An under payed genius. I have fought for breath laughing at this guy.

[@SuperOldShows]

Stella Street is one of the most underrated programmes ever.

[@aerialkate]

He's hyper! But extremely talented.

[@graemeyetts3465]

Loved Stella St.. RIP JOHN SESSIONS

[@thunderchildSCO]

Absolute legend is our Phil.

[@anoshya]

I’ve met Phil a few times..apart from being very talented he’s a very genuine guy

[@HarryLoveTV]

I met this gentleman in a completely unexpected scenario and he was a remarkably nice man

[@chrisdee8199]

More Stella Street please Phil, and Gilbert ...why not ?

[@anoshya]

Very talented guy and also a very nice man

[@TEEF4BRAINZ]

God.. I only hear Murdoc

[@okoenig.3424]

I love everything about this

[@thecornedbeefcouncil9792]

Love Phil Cornwell, such a talented, funny bloke.

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

Get Fresh was essential viewing as a 16 year old...I loved his cameos in "I'm Alan Partridge" and of course Stella Street.

[@jenniegr1724]

Murdoc ♥

[@jaddajn1]

stella street was sublime

[@1paultay]

The too cool for school girl who nearly winds Phil at 5:54 reminds me of someone I used to work with. Hi Lindz!

[@reapersghost]

I'd love to meet him!!! :)

[@jonkuiper4703]

I loved Phil as Dave Clifton on the Allan partridge show .

[@7millwall7]

Clever clever guys he and John.

[@frozenhispanic3912]

Whay Mudz would sound like if he was sober and happy about life

[@clarkingram9436]

Love Phil Cornwell. Stellar St just awesome

[@Vapor_Space]

Phil is one of the funniest out there need him back on the box

[@bobscaricatures8581]

One of THE funniest guys on tv. Delightfully witty and well observed characterisation. Would love to see him do more on telly.👍

[@Atheneastro]

I liked Murdoc because he was funny!

National treasure. Great interview, thanks!

[@dfernand101]

As a kid all the other kids were in agreement that the man behind Gilbert was very talented ... Gilbert seemed to be the ultimate ad-lib

[@andrewhendrix4688]

At last a potted history of Gilbert The Alien! It was either Phil Cornwell or Chris Barrie. Both of them brilliant impersonators.

[@80srenaissance67]

He really is a funny guy

[@RossPatzelt]

love this!

[@fiveredpears]

What a really nice guy, as well as being so talented. He should have done something more with Dave Clifton, there was a potential series there.

[@chrish6001]

Gorillaz are fortunate to have him as the voice of Murdoc Niccals. He brings a lot to the role. He must have fun with a dark character that's an unreliable narrator so he can ad lib. He's got such a wealth of knowledge too, and it adds interest and dimension to the character, especially during the pirate radio sessions and live chats. It's often hilarious.

[@bbarton538]

What a legend. Great interview😂👏

[@passionfruit0498]

Hi I’m Murdoc Niccals from Gorillaz

[@Dreamskater100]

Love him!

[@MicheleJane]

He even sounds like Jagger without even trying!😆

He's hilarious in 'Alpha Papa'!!

The man is a genius.

[@prpwnage9296]

Interviewer says he is wondering when Phil is going to start doing his characters when he is doing Gilbert

[@GAB_BEAN]

Haha tourette-sy? X33 He's so brilliant!

[@davedogge2280]

I think he left Stella Street and he for ever more stayed in character with his Michael Caine impersonation.

[@randomfandoms6769]

Murdoc if he didn't sell his soul to the devil.
