Matt Berry is a fucking dreamboat. Sexy as hell, a golden voice, and bears a striking resemblance to human bartender Jackie Daytona.

[@christinewalton3106]

He’s kind of attractive but mostly he’s interesting and talented. For me what I like is his love of music, humble attitude and he appears to be a kind person

[@lisas5211]

hahahahahha WELL SAID.

[@JustaCastle]

@@christinewalton3106”I wish I were more attractive like Dagless”

[@DoneBrokeDatBack]

No one will EVER look as good as Jackie Daytona.

[@renegade1rebel]

Jackie Daytona from Arizohniya?

[@Ghost-bx8ld]

“Steven, this is Clem Fandango. Can you hear me?”

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Yes I can hear you, _Clem Fandango_

[@nidzdotnet76]

I can hear you you donut... Can you hear me? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... LOL

[@HoldFastFilms]

Ray. Bloody. Purchase.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Brilliant character 😂

[@Missjunebugfreak]

I love every show Matt Berry has been in - he's such a gift to comedy - but I will always have an immense adoration for "Garth Marenghi's Darkplace". That show is such a unique gem & it's criminal it only got one season.

[@dukeofpreston3228]

my favourite series of all time .. I see a new thing every time 😂

[@JonnyMegabyte]

There kinda is a second series: it's called "Man To Man with Dean Learner"

[@PissyKnish]

I was so excited to watch Man to Man. The laugh track absolutely sucks the life out of the universe they created. @@JonnyMegabyte

[@tommietea-time4998]

"You're a woman"

[@MrmorpheuZ]

You and he were buddies, weren't you?

[@mattm8441]

Matt Berry's music career is no joke.. I listened to his albums after this interview and I was struck by how good some of the songs are on his first two albums in particular.

[@pointman1921]

Just bought his Gather Up LP collection. It really is amazing. You can just relax to it.

[@fatsuperfly]

True, my cousin introduced me to one of his comedy, and they would have music segments. He told me too, that’s actually Matt singing, I was like damn! Funny and musical genius! I realized that, this guys is amazing. Me and my family just always felt comedic and music is such an art and it’s hard to do one, he did both. Just appreciate this gentleman, he is a treasure.

[@darkprincess1918]

I love his music….

[@Digginjim]

Witchazel is a favourite…

[@mubbly24]

Wife hates the music but I have all the vinyl. Got hooked for a period of time

[@blahdzhahd3736]

Everytime I see Matt, I'm sad that Year of the Rabbit only got one season. That show was hilarious, and I loved it.

[@TtotheCizzel]

youll be happy to hear hes been in a lot of shows that are a lot better!

[@robainscough]

Me too, such a great short series ... then nothing ... ugh!

[@AFoxInFlames]

Everything Matt Berry touches and does is gold. Love him.❤❤❤❤

[@BlackMetal_Goat]

_FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATHER_

[@jameseyk1]

Speak ppppppriest

[@abhijiththampi]

Unhand me, priest!

[@janellvircks1444]

The genius of Matt Berry has no limit.

[@PamelaD963]

Any Americans who have not watched “The IT Crowd “ should do so immediately!

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

I've seen everything and that's my least favorite

[@dazblue5515]

Love Matt... everything he does is gold... and hope he gets to tour in the US... though selfishly have to say, I hope for many more series of What We Do in the Shadows.

[@AM-uo2kf]

He’s a one track lover, on a two way laaaane. Driving fast down the highway, must have been insane.

[@akelly4207]

He just seems incredibly intelligent and interesting. It’s so attractive. Not to mention his talent.

[@Mamotreco]

you and he were ... buddies, weren't you?

[@pedro3474]

Chills. They don't write dialogue that this anymore

[@Missjunebugfreak]

One of the best lines in TV history.

[@Dr_Dimly_Litroom]

Need I say more

[@PaulZedd]

Once

[@juvenilegolden]

Toast of London is my favourite comedy of all time!

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

It's utterly brilliant. Matt's performance is so original

[@OnlyElshafto]

I remember watching the judge dredd movie and when the kid put his h/phone on it was playing a matt berry track ( from snuffbox era) I couldn't fkn believe it.. And also remembering at the time how few people would have had a clue what that was, and also how the hell matt pulled that gig off 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😎

[@tonypine3434]

that kid turned out to be Brendan Gleeson's son

[@josephvanwyk2088]

I LOVED his Toast of London & Tinseltown - Epic tragedy, sooooo funny.

[@ineffa8le00rt]

Matt Berry is one of the best artists of our generation

[@kailamallard]

Matt is truly the best of the best!!

[@davidhayes4840]

Matt would be stellar at narrating a audio book. Heck even the voice for a gps. He’s got a killer speaking voice

[@ferdinandpeelen3614]

He's got a book on audible as character toast and it's hilarious. Just lots and lots of Matt Berry. I've listened to the whole thing three times already

[@yellowblanka6058]

"A....ABBING...TON........ALL....BRIGHTon!"

[@WreckageandDisaster]

He did, the Steven toast book

[@cipritine]

Absolutely adore Matt out of his characters. Dream man ✨

[@grind4christ777]

Did not know he was a musician this is so rad. First time watching him was on the It crowd and he had such comedic timing. I'll check his music 🎵😊

[@dominicstockton7102]

Just here to give an honourable mention to Beef from House Of Fools, probably my favourite Matt Berry characters.

[@jbtownsend9535]

I watched Snuff Box a hundred times. I’m Self Taauught!

[@JayBuff19]

Saw him open for Steven Wilson at the Royal Albert Hall, mind blown. “Yes, Clem Fandango I can hear you”

[@dh1380]

That's mad

[@andersmogensen2819]

First time I ever saw him, was the funeral scene in IT crowd. No actor has ever made a better entrance into my life than him, and thats including Rik Mayall/Lord Flashheart, and I do not place him second lightly..

[@capt_howdy]

yo wtf why wasn't this recommended to me 5 months ago?????

[@LexTNeville]

You had the disgruntled editor in chief of Vice media and you didn't want to dig up any dirt? That place is a goldmine of shit. Missed opportunty.

[@bradjackson1691]

That's hilarious about Nick cave and Joy Division. Joy Division randomly played in Walmart the other day and it didn't seem right at all.

[@jamessimon3433]

Matt can deliver more emotion with a single exclwmation than most actors can do in an entire monologue.

[@darkprincess1918]

Mighty Boosh, Snuff Box, and Toast of London are some of my favorites!!

[@lindsaypollock597]

just a friendly Matt-Berry fan passing by - if you like those, try "Darkplace", which was his first big show in the UK. It remains by far my favourite MB performance... which is saying something :) Hope you enjoy! Have a nice day :)

[@kevinbissinger]

Also IT Crowd

[@Steely_Cam]

I thought Matt was the British Dan Harmon just visually but I think he’s more in the Charlie Day vein.

[@chericercone2362]

I want to marry Matt Berry.

[@cgdimension]

I can just imagine Matt in a glam 70s outfit, big fur coat and wide brim hat in a movie parodying Yes or emerson lake palmer ;p

[@briankehew579]

Not far from the truth...

[@absurdyellowdog9700]

I recently was surprised that there is a new season of Toast on Roku!!! It’s hilarious so far (no surprise)

[@artresearch]

Matt Berry was an awesome guest and Tom's detailed account of the Ray Liotta KFC commercial @ 49:00 from 58:46 was the highlight!

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

I wish I could have called in and did my Matt Berry impression!

[@Kaleil]

Loved this, but goddamn.. I'd love to see Matt on Hollywood Handbook, as well.

[@bardsamok9221]

I still can't believe Tom is not Bob Fossil (Aka: Rich Fulcher, please get him on the show it would be a hilarious combo!) Great stuff from Matt as always.

[@John-d5y2d]

Now look Berry..Baretta with his strange body, his very short legs, enormous yet undefined biceps, elongated torso and play doh like, unformed face, along with his parrot, was broadcast on BBC1 in the 70's. Saturday nights, or maybe Friday nights, but it was shown. I watched it. Alright buddy!

[@eternalgoldenvoid6988]

Few things make me happier than Snuffbox.

[@markusmcgee]

Just realized that the Toast of London music is...Matt Berry lol

[@leahdionne5759]

I grew up in Essex but lived in north london just as long now and people think i've got a south london accent?! Fascinates me how accents change just a few miles up the road.

[@michaeljohn1978]

Only Matt would compare London Dungeon to Disneyland

[@peyneust]

LOVE OF MY LIFE MATT BERRY

[@DavidCSaint]

Just found this show had no clue I was such a fan of Tom as I’ve loved his work but never made the connection but he rocks and the fact Matt is here is the fucking best

[@TonyBaseballs23]

This might set a record for the Matt Berry interview with the least Matt Berry in it.

[@nidzdotnet76]

This is Clem Fandango.. Can you hear me?

[@barnham9388]

His musical interludes in Toast of London were always really good but never knew he had a music career!

[@harrybrayne6044]

I lasted 4 mins until the nose breathing into the mic killed me.

[@sonnieM]

“He only liked Denim” Denham Renham 😂

[@Unfunny_Username_389]

14:09 - yeah it did, actually. It may have been late night on one of the independent channels e.g. Granada. But I definitely remember seeing it in the telly listings when I was little.

[@productdesign9626]

Matt missed a perfect chance at the end to look at a piece of paper and say: "YES"

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Snuff Box is some of the best sketch comedy there has been. Rich Fulcher was the perfect costar. The blend with Berry's music worked brilliantly and added much to the humor, and I hate musicals (even though it's not a musical show, just has a few songs in it)

[@sonnieM]

I love Matt Berry… his hair gets so lovely the older he gets xxx

[@Missjunebugfreak]

Not even lying, I wish my hair was as luscious and beautiful as Matt's.

[@MartsTravel]

Whats funny with Matt is you never know if he in character or not

[@costasspartan1894]

Matt Berry is Gold keep up the good work brother.

[@Liedragon]

Release the Nuclear weapons!

[@Your_Peaceful_Power]

It’s “Fire the nucular weapons.”

[@Liedragon]

@@Your_Peaceful_Power Shut up Clem!

[@marcofeola-gi6ez]

oh shit i didn't know that was his actual voice lol, Hey Matt if you read this can you do the full song of "Sunrise Sunset" literally the best version if that song i've ever heard even though its only 30 seconds of it! Literally the best sounding version!

[@jezlawrence720]

Ah matt berry. Matt, when my boy was very little and i would read him mr men books, i used to mimic your voice for Mr Strong - perfect.

[@christoguichard4311]

He's dead right about the difference between South and East London. I say that as a South Londoner.

[@matty_fromlife]

As someone who lives in Canada I thought at 30:15 the comments on the vibe up here were not too kind.

[@jeffware87]

Couple things... 1. That Canadian accent is so brutal. We got tons but that's not a Toronto accent, sounds rural to me. Wee one?? 2. Tom if you wanna rock out in Toronto you're gonna get the crowd you want at the Bovine Sex Club or Hard Luck.

[@jamiewm]

Matt Berry - National Treasure. 🇬🇧

[@patrickmcbrewhouse]

Nick nemith aka dolf ziggler played the colonel sanders .😅 Guns out. 😅

[@shanejohnson6855]

Damm.. Greg Universe amd Lazlo

[@connerybrown4416]

Best comment so far 😊

[@GeorgeB514]

Steve Reich? Steve Wrong! XD

[@chrsmcfrln]

Is that Jackie Daytona?

[@Diamond_Skies]

Matt Berry is amazing. i wish more of this interview was about him instead of the interviewer.

[@Nekotaku_TV]

Wow, didn't know he did music for WWDITS.

[@chronicmasonic6669]

Matt you still owe me a drink from the Gooseberry Bush Trent. 95 em thinks lol

[@GaryPhelpsII]

Funny guy; he was great in Darkplace.

[@deluxMessage]

Superb

[@elloello_erm]

26:51 can anyone explain what track Matt is referring to?

[@gardenlover9663]

I would love to hear him call me Dahling.

[@BradyPires7]

love matt and i love double deckers, i actually ad one yesterday. crunchie base with nougat on top covered in chocolate. im sure back in the day they had raisins in. matt could play bill oddie in his goodies dayse od my favs as a kid. what we do in the shadows, matt just kills it. lucky im a north londoner so sound normal😅 love a good nick cave concert

[@LexTNeville]

Fuse had raisins, never double deckers IIRC. That shit'll give you diabetes. Eat broccolli, butter it up if you want.

[@JohnnyTronny19841]

Bill Bruford leaving Matt's body wanting makes me love Bill and Matt even more

[@alexcamp9320]

Love you Matt but a double decker is nothing like a Kit Kat or an Aero

[@TRayTV]

That would be funny show, at least a skit. Matt's career has gone horribly wrong and he has to earn a living outside the arts. He's still trying to indulge his whims and is ill-suited for the lifestyle of a working class thrall.

[@AlanMearns-YesTheRaven]

Yes! YESSSS! Yeeeessss!

[@abhijiththampi]

Where in America was this? New york citeh?

[@stevefranks9873]

Shut-up Tom! Canada kicks ass

[@juliannepyron9366]

His real accent is so different 😂

[@Nekotaku_TV]

No. Just a bit.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Berry is a living legend. One of the single most funny comedic actors of all time. Brilliant musician, too. He reminds me of an English Tim Heidecker.

[@onesunnyday5699]

I've been falling down Matt Berry rabbit holes since The Mighty Boosh. His music is my latest obsession ❤

[@christineharrelson4831]

His comment on "America" I feel in my bones. I get you, Matt!

[@gurrrn1102]

This interview is a true pleasyure.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Serial killer songs _are_ funny, Matt. Object by Ween is amazin, pretty too
