Hugh Laurie and Tom Hiddleston I Interview I TimesTalks

[@Liz86000]

Hugh talking about music with so much passion, or Tom quoting Shakespeare so wonderfully.... My, how much I love those two.

[@positivelypetpartners]

What I noticed about Tom in many interviews is that he likes to illustrate his stories with quotes of famous people. His thoughtful answers reflect his great intellect and his expansive education from Eton to Cambridge. I feel that his intelligence and sincerity make him even more attractive than his looks alone, and oh the looks and the voice!

[@mbmckedits]

don't forget that he's modest, kind to his fans, funny and charitable. Nothing faulty about this human. None.

[@lofds]

Oh man, that bit about how an Englishman tells you to turn down the music is brilliant.

[@DomineIssa]

Love those two. Intelligent, articulated, deep and passionate. Such brilliant artists and interesting gentlemen. About the interviewer, great at doing his job, which, as I consider, is just throwing out a simple question and letting the artists explain and express themselves without annoying or even egocentric interruptions. Great interview, loved every minute of it.

[@jimnooney3560]

I've just finished watching "The Night Manager" and I thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful portrayals of these two outstanding actors. They had such great chemistry together that I hope they can find another project to work on together at some time in the future.

[@juneparkes9942]

Yes...🙂🙂🙂

[@nedababic8865]

[@dagordon1041]

Amen. I have hoped for that too. "The Night Manager" is a cinema gem.

[@timgillison1175]

Lovely to see two very famous, well respected actors talk together without needing to get one up on each other or boast about anything. Obviously get on with each other very well. Very refreshing.

[@susanmontague5267]

Wow. Hiddleston can discuss nearly anything...well and intelligently. But so can Hugh Laurie it seems. Is British education better than American???

[@chrisofnottingham]

Hugh and Tom are clever even by British standards - all these guys had private education and then went to Oxford or Cambridge, so they are the intellectual elite of Britain.

[@Alejasoff]

A bull session with those guys...would it be epic!

[@pinarozge6895]

They both went to Cambridge I think and yes, you are right of course about them being among the intellectual elite.

[@Cristobels-Green-Boots]

+Pinar Ozge -- Don't forget Eton! These two, along with Redmayne & Cumberbach have restored my faith in British Actors -- following in the footsteps of Rickman, Guinness, O'Toole.......💔

[@Natsumi666]

No, it's pretty much the support of a wealthy family XD

[@SophyaAgain]

Gosh, Le Carre is one of my favourit authors. Hugh is theeeee funiest comedian I 've ever seen. Yes folk. Hugh was a comedian in the UK before House. Tom an extraodinary actor (Henry VI part 1 and 2 - TV film). All of them in a single work? What else can I ask?

[@MT-sw8rf]

so much sophistication! both have studied at Cambridge University ,, what a massive difference compared to the brainless Hollywood so called actors....

I second that regarding Hugh Laurie. Stunning in every way.

Told a great John le Carre story on Graham Norton

[@rachelsingleton2023]

Their academic paths are not too different although not at the same time, both attended Dragon School in Oxfordshire, then moved on to Eton college, near Windsor then onto Cambridge University where they both stared in Footlights..... Both very gifted academically and theatrically. Both I could listen to forever and never tire. ❤️

[@torgnyaanderaa2334]

@@maya2707-y1l Impressive how you start sympathizing with him - almost forgetting all the terrible stuff he's been part of. No, an absolutely brilliant series. And Hugh is _delightful_ as Roper. I remember being so happy for him when he landed "House"; terrific to see a chiefly comedic actor I had loved for most of my life, take on a 'serious' (although not un-funny) role like that. And I was just as delighted, if not more so, to see him "crush it" as charming, clever and utterly reprehensible Richard Roper. So good!

[@PeppermintPatties]

I.e. They're both very posh.

[@amyj2009]

Pet peeve of mine speakers using "um" while speaking. I could, however, listen to Mr. Hiddleston's "em" all day long. Great interview and amazing series, The Night Manager.

[@dalangie]

I saw it yesterday the first time and did a binge-watching-session. Today i do binge-watching youtube about him.🤣

[@juhanleemet]

For many people, they don't even realize they are doing it... it can take some practice to recognize and stop that... I took part in some ToastMasters (sort of like Carnegie co-op) programs, and I used to "blow up" the "ah meter" (there is someone assigned to count "crutch words" and expressions), but I think I am better now... I agree it is annoying, and I have found it surprising that many actors when they extemporize also have that problem! I guess they can deliver lines written for them, but have some trouble "composing" their words "on the fly". It takes some practice. One of the things to realize, as with music, you don't HAVE to fill every second with noise/sound. Silence can add drama!

[@teresayeates3437]

It is called a word whisker, I had to learn not to use it. Dead air is okay.

[@samanthab1923]

Right? It's almost an English trait

[@edronc2007]

Tom Hiddleston For Bond!

[@alanaveira9723]

I think he would make a better villian can't picture him as Bond. I think idris Elba would be an interesting choice.

[@Zazzybry11]

+Alana Veira that's a cool idea

[@alanaveira9723]

+bryony Caleb the sad thing I don't think they're going to choose idris Elba for bond or any other actor of colour. I remember hearing that roger Moore said the idris Elba wasn't the " right kind" of British to play the character whatever the fuck that means

[@doctorhouse3151]

Alana Veira Did you hear the latest rumor? The Producers are SERIOUSLY thinking of changing Bond to a woman for the next era. (I'll let the shock of that sink in for a few hours and then you can share your thoughts)

[@alanaveira9723]

I think it would be really amazing if the bond character were to be played by I woman but a lot people would probably HATE the idea. I mean look at how much negative remarks cast of the ghostbusters reboot received.

[@mxgirl918]

They should get a separate interview just to discuss Shakespeare and literature! :D

[@coreyhodge3770]

It just occurred to me how similar Loki & House are in may ways (Intelligent, quite childish, ruthless, mischievous, twinkle in the eye hiding deep emotional pain).

Rewatched the series recently after a long time. It's funny how you discover new things and details. Also how you realize that Roper can be seen as a "bad future" version of Jonathan Pine. They are like two faces of the same coin.
