Jon Culshaw - Parkinson interview

[@christopherblackwell6362]

Just heard of this guy now. Too often I am disappointed by impressionists but this guy is extremely talented and has all the nuances down.

[@aucourant9998]

No other impressionist can touch him for utter brilliance.

[@TralfazConstruction]

He's too much! I can't believe that I learned of his existence less than four months ago. He's absolutely brilliant and his talents transcend just doing impressions. I feel privileged to live in the time of Jon Culshaw.

[@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S.]

The Ian Hislop impression at 2:50 was freaking terrifying. It came out of nowhere and was spot on!

[@paulbloom8847]

He s so talented and so modest with it.The best at what he does

[@LHA8925]

Parkinson really was the king of chat shows. Such a classy man and amazing with his guests.

[@alexr5557]

None better!

[@users32471]

'claims direct' send-up sketch at the beginning was FCUKING HILARIOUS!

[@seanhammond6708]

When Jon Culshaw talks it feels like he's doing an impression of Jon Culshaw

[@donovanhaddock9900]

Oh man i love John Culshaw!

[@lea6555]

as often as I've watched this the two Patrick Moore's bickering make me cry laughing EVERY time 🤣🤣🤣🤣💕✌

[@rogerpowell6985]

Absolutely brilliant.

[@callithowiseeit5806]

Eamonn laughing it up until Culshaw did him and he found it so funny he got the lawyers in

[@terratec1001]

@ 5:08 - Patrick Moore was lovely man - I still miss him on The Sky At Night. Jon's impression of Patrick was spot on. It always makes me smile when Jon guests occasionally on The Sky At Night and does it on there.

[@CupidStunt72]

The word genius is overused sometimes, but Culshaw is a 100% genuine genius. His speed of thought is frightening

[@adamglasgow9268]

The word is indeed overused by people like you

[@boi4367]

@@adamglasgow9268 Just did, not quite as good, still brilliant

[@martinplatt5928]

@@adamglasgow9268 I always thought Frank Gorshin was a great impressionist. His facial expressions of Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas were very good without him uttering a word. He played the part of the 'Riddler' in the 1960s Batman TV series.

Sitting him next to Eamonn Holmes 🤣

culshaw is brilliant, a great inspiration for me

Brilliant interview (well it's Parki' so of course) and brilliant Culshaw - what a truly fabulous and spontaneous entertainer !

This is pure genius comedy. Love Frank Bruno. Frank Bruno is great in real life. Keep strong Frank every body loves you.

His Frank Bruno is incredible tbf

[@davidcopson5800]

I know what you mean.

[@theslayeroforyx3546]

I can't be the only one who was hoping he would do an impression of Parkinson, like he did on dead ringers

[@mrsmart811]

8:10 that emphatic hand gesture was on point !🤛🏼

[@innovativeinnovation6629]

I think Jon is a brilliant vocal impressionist and also a body linguistic genius.

[@Villiago]

Sir Patrick Moore was such a good sport!

[@fatwalletboy2]

That was wonderful.....whats happened to our Saturday night tv entertainment....we need more stuff like this back.....

[@surrrealsolutions]

Wow these are spot on. The Ian Hislop is brilliant

[@timmccaffrey1326]

Great fun and Jon Culshaw seems to be enjoying himself as much as everyone else!

[@capokhatpin]

The Chris Eubank impression was brilliant.

[@G3n3r4t0r1111]

Patrick Moore was genius

[@tony7054]

What a nice bloke, very talented empresionist,

[@watchpotch]

The interview with Sir Patrick had me in fits of laughter. Thought provoking about the story where Culshaw phoned no. 10 pretending to be William Hague, not expecting to get through, but then surprisingly got through. Kind of mirrors the prank call the Australian radio presenters made to the hospital, pretending to be the royal family, also not expecting to get through, but got through. Both prank calls were meant as harmless jokes. One resulted in hilarity, the other tragedy.

[@AllansStation]

Simply the best

[@JonnyCooper]

No idea how he does this. What a talented guy...

[@paulmiles9102]

this guy is a legend ive never laughed so much his impressions are spot on when i heared frank bruno and lennox lewis and chris eubank i was week with laughter allways a real pleasure to watch this incredible talent of jon culshaw.

[@Panthera0nca]

...the well inserted (fnarr, fnarr!) Frank Bruno impression was a gem!

[@tony7054]

Parky really loves his interviews love to read his biography

[@DrCrabfingers]

Man...Culshaw is on a whole different level to other impressionists. His Steve Urwin and John Peel are spooky accurate. His range is totally unbelievable. Easily easily the best impressionist. Lennox Lewis...who else does Lennox Lewis!!

[@rickewilde]

He is the master of impersonation.

[@hugohackenbush1554]

There are not enough superlatives to describe how talented Jon Culshaw is.

[@nigelwest3430]

Amazing talent

[@70livingdolls]

Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

I'm really surprised Jon Culshaw didn't do his famous Eamonn Holmes impression during the interview, since he was actually sitting next to the man himself. Culshaw does a brilliant take-off of him.

[@markdaly1648]

Eamon Holmes sued jon Culshaw after Holmes saw a sketch tgst Culshaw did about eating, the Holmes line in the sketch is am hungry so i am. And Holmes consulted his lawyers

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

@@markdaly1648 It sounds like Eamonn Holmes has had his sense of humour surgically removed. What an arse!

[@crisp2882]

Jon is a genius

[@thrippleton]

He is the best,bar none!

[@robmarrin6720]

I used to prank call investment firms on 0800 numbers back in the early 90s doing my impression of Billy Connelly,, 😂😂😂 I'm glad I wasn't the only one ❤️👍

[@muttley9520]

Eamons foot movements show his total disdain for Culshaw.

[@robharding1957]

brilliant impressionist does a great tom baker and ossy osborne,

[@hughcdavies]

Excellent, and I love it that Jon Culshaw recognises the great Mike Yarwood as his inspiration. Of cause Mike could sing in character as well, not sure I've ever seen Jon do that.

[@lordprotector3367]

Sadly Mike wasn't very good, but he was the only one doing impressions in the 70s.

[@pauloates4982]

Jon Culshaw it's should be Sir Jon Culshaw he is fantastic I can not stop laughing when he is on television,

[@madmatmp]

Noice when he did the great Steve Irwin, his whole face suddenly became that very person. Amazing. 😀

[@robmarrin6720]

How refreshing to see tracking lines on this video,, God rest VHS video tapes 👍

[@PaulRoberts]

I bet that Rolf Harris impression will be permanently on the back burner from now on...

[@therestorationofdrwho1865]

yeah, he'd probably get in real trouble for impersonating him.

[@TheGrumpyGuide]

I'm surprised this video hasn't been removed by KZbin because it contains a Rolf reference. Loads of Savile related videos have been removed, particularly the Louis Theroux interview documentary. Ridiculous really because people need to see how he duped an entire nation and learn from that rather than it being swept under the carpet out of fear.

[@soeffingwhat]

@@TheGrumpyGuide Well its still on. And you can still see Saville's involvement in Peter Kay's Amarillo Vid.

[@tricky778]

I get the feeling that he's doing a character when he's supposed to be speaking as himself

[@pixelfandango]

@ifyouwantbochin Mmm, I think I may have made a mistake in the description tbh. I can't be sure, but this may indeed be his first Parkinson interview so I'll update the info :-]

[@markperryman1797]

11:12 Parky mentions Rolf Harris, I could just imagine the audience stunned silence and wind and tumbleweed blowing across the studio.....

[@steves1015]

Mark Perryman not at all, the description said this interview was from the early 2000s, and his crimes didn’t come out until the early 2010s.... he even did a portrait for the Queen in 2005/2006ish... so at the time this was recorded none of the public were any the wiser. If I remember right, it was also well before any of the Savile allegations, which is what largely kicked off the investigations into Harris and others.
