Best of Dini Petty: Michael Caine

[@davidrix804]

Im a cockney and proud to be one because of michael caine,cocneys rule.god bless michael caine and his family🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@granthurlburt4062]

He's great and was a real ground-breaker. It never occurred to me that he set a new pattern, different from the usual Englishman at the time but quite able to play an upper class guy in Zulu.

[@asmodeus0454]

Greatly talented actor and a great fella is Michael Caine. Down to earth, no vanity, and honest and very natural.

[@felicitythomson3397]

Brilliant interview Dini is excellent and we all love Micheal !!!

[@leemitchellmusic]

Such an incredible personality.... Man, I'd have loved to have spent some time earwigging him talking in company unfettered !!! He's absolutely hypnotic . Xxx :-)

[@bennyjazzful]

WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111 What an incredible interview. From a mad keen 75yo Aussie fan.

[@ronmoore4372]

Absolutely wonderful interview. Kudos to Dini Petty for just letting him talk. Pop a question or remark here and there and sit back and listen. Great job.

[@prempillay]

Beautiful Dini Petty did a superb interview. Michael Cane is one of my favourite actors. Enjoyed his humour and personal story.

[@HansDelbruck53]

lt's Caine.

[@michaelsix9684]

Michael Caine has tons of funny stories to tell

Just brilliant.

I could listen to this man all day.

Thanks for posting! I could listen to him for hours, he is a nice storyteller!

[@HansDelbruck53]

Quite the raconteur.

[@omnivorousbiped2447]

I've never heard of Dini Petty before seeing this; she's precise and extremely well spoken. I like her.

[@SuperTekZone]

She's a knock-out too. Good looks AND brains, what a combination.

[@brieneaton8578]

She is Canadian. That's why.

[@canadianmike711]

Watch that instead of barney before Regis on ATV.

[@granthurlburt4062]

Me too. Not gushing, aware, vulnerable, thoughtful, listening to every word, joking

[@HolgerRuneFan]

What a charming and wonderful interview. Dini is perfect because she's not interrupting him, she's allowing him to just rattle on in his own inimitable way.

[@patl6978]

U nutz?

[@DC_10]

What a great interview, and the host just let Michael speaks and tells wonderful life story. And good advise to men about how to pay attention to women, not just themselves. Definitely will get his audio autobiography.

[@jamesanthony5681]

Michael Caine is THE easiest interviewee of all time. Even Dini Petty couldn't mess it up as much as she tried with with her laughing and constant interjections.

[@gopalashetty3592]

[@Czechbound]

How cute is Dini !

[@granthurlburt4062]

I've been aware of Dini Petty since the 1980's but never listened to a full interview. She seems very Canadian (like me). Alert, polite, never gushing, beautiful face and expression; thoughtful, listening carefully, funny, and happy to flirt a bit.

[@peter_piper]

"She'd be beautiful even if she had an ugly face". My god, how romantic is that !!

[@davidcarroll9995]

Awesome in Alfie and Zulu.

[@mikearchibald744]

When he laughs he reminds me of David Bowie for some reason.

[@markkavanagh7377]

Listening to this interview is why Parkinson was the GOAT. This interviewer just will not shut up an listen to the answer to her question

[@patl6978]

Bingo

[@devanse5057]

Do you have the 1993 episode with Bret Hart when he gave a very young Adam "Edge" Copeland" in the audience some advice on making it big time in professional wrestling to WWE?

[@WilliamHolden-t5g]

Does anyone know what year this was? Thank you.

At 16:40 he mentions an eye disease ... blethora? How is it spelled? I cannot find it.

[@Omnicient.]

You can't love someone just by looking at them; you have to have the full picture!

[@malpreece5008]

It all began in 1966? Caine had already been a leading man in Zulu (1964) and the Ipcress File (1965) before he made Alfie in ‘66! What’s she on about?

[@matthewcunningham8691]

Who is this wonderful woman?

[@arx754]

I felt slightly on edge watching this because the interviewer seemed to keep waiting on Caine to pause even for an instant so that she could jump in. Just wanted Caine to keep talking without her superfluous comments and reactions.

[@mikearchibald744]

I was thinking the opposite, I just watched him on david letterman and saw this and was thoroughly impressed by how little the interviewer talked, it seemed like a genuine one sided conversaation and I suspect even michael caine would admit that.

[@jamesanthony5681]

Precisely. Could have done without her needless interjections. It's not required because Caine is such an EASY interview and can run for miles with any good question. I'm critical because I've seen her do this so many times, I can only guess she wants to show everyone that she's done her homework with her knowledge of the guest.

*Romani* refers to the common _language_ spoken by the Sinti & the Kale, amongst others. *Roma* refers to the *people* that come from Balkan countries like Romania & Hungary & Albania & Bulgaria. *_Gypsy_* is a derogatory term for these people. Roma have DNA that reveals the Indian blood group - Caine really looks "Indian" - 'righto -Caine would be a "Traveller" - *Travellers* are of Irish ancestral origin and have no particular genetic ties to European Roma groups, according to their a DNA. Roma: chiefly live in the Balkans (as mentioned) as well as in Central-Eastern Europe. Sinti: live in Northern areas of Western Europe, in France & in Northern Italy. Kale: are from Finland, Wales, Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Algeria and Iraq. Manouches: are also from France and Italy Romaniche: England, North America and Australia. Caine is outside his depth in all of this; especially when he wants to be considered *didike*, which is simply another term for _gypsy_ . So, in summary, his family would have been a caravan-dwelling roadside people . . . righto!

[@stevegreen9460]

strange how life plays out. why are some so blessed and others so curst ? some have so much good come there way, other have nothing but bad. what a bowl of dog shit this world is.

[@michaelmantle6043]

Steve Green "Curst"? "There" way? "Other"? Apparently, it's your education that's dog shit. Priceless.

[@jamesanthony5681]

Like Michael Caine? Look at his life. He was born into poverty, worked his ass off, did years of repertory theatre and prepared for the break when it came to him.

Dini interrupts too much. It’s annoying.

Yes.

[@robertbest4398]

I thought south London or as its known know londonistan

[@bbailey17b]

Listening is the top talent of a good interviewer. Dini's nice-looking, and I recall her having a good show--but she does insist on interrupting. In his case, he doesn't need egging on to keep things lively. Here and there he looks annoyed when his punch lines don't get across as she's so eager to jump in.

[@irish66]

Ha. One person says "What a great interview, and the host just let Michael speaks and tells wonderful life story." and someone else says "but she does insist on interrupting" ☺

[@bbailey17b]

@@irish66 You find disagreement curious? Nothing peculiar that one person thinks she's a good interviewer and another thinks that, at least in this case, she very much gets in the way. The question is: Where do you stand?

[@irish66]

@@bbailey17b In this case, not curious, but amusing. I thought she could have calmed down a bit.

[@jamesanthony5681]

Caine is arguably THE easiest interviewee of any celebrity, and interjecting is not required. He can amuse and tell a story without prodding, and he looked put out at times. She interviewed David Suzuki at one time, interrupting him constantly to the point where Suzuki said "Dini, would you just shut up." Caine is a gentleman.

[@cahillgreg]

Every time he tells this story it changes - Londoners just can't talk straight

[@bluetownbarry]

East end? Ffs 😂😂 - he’s from south east London (Elephant & Castle)

[@tonybaloney4195]

Why does she keep butting in all the time

[@colmocathain-sw3cg]

Dini is dreadful because she keeps interrupting him. Let him speak; he loves to talk and he is a lot more interesting than the host.
