Paul McCartney interview...

....in the garden shed on Johnny Vaughan's ''The Big Breakfast'' show, on Tuesday 16th November 1999.

"I'm a rough tough cream puff." This man is precious. Omg.

[@thesilvershining]

Right? I adore him ♥️

[@anniemihn]

He lost his mother. He lost his partner. He lost the Beatles. And he lost his wife. But still going on gloriously up to this day. How great is that? I LOVE you Paul and always will.

[@paul5969]

it's called getting on with life coz there is no other option

[@jerrileeplaylistjerome5245]

Through all his losses, he has exhibited a strength unmeasured. By literally no one else!! I love you endlessly, my Dear Paul!! ❤❤❤😘😘😘

[@Kieop]

@@jerrileeplaylistjerome5245 Roy Orbison lost his wife in a car crash and his children in a fire. Paul is not the only person to exhibit great strength in the face of loss. In fact, it cheapens such resolve and strength to suggest that he is.

James Paul McCartney died in car crash on September 11 1966 and was replaced by William (Billy). This is THE TRUTH no matter what.

[@paulcachia3480]

Same here!! 👍❤

[@craigwarner6156]

That was brilliant. He was in a good mood. But you can tell he's been through the mill recently in this, but he's getting through and putting the old "my brave face" on. He was very honest.

[@freezerjoe]

That is the best interview I’ve seen with Paul McCartney. Johnny Vaughan is a legend!!

[@johncarey4186]

That would be a great name for an album Paul. "I'm A Rough Tough Cream Puff"

[@gerrycoogan6544]

Excellent interview performance from Macca and also a reminder of what a tremendous presenter Johnny Vaughan was. As mentioned in the interview, The Big Breakfast (when it was hosted by Johnny and Lisa) was the only breakfast tv show worth watching. Great fun.

[@christinethompson6924]

Aww don't die Paul! I love you tooooo much! Since 1964 I have been so in love with my Pauly. Kiss kiss kiss..

Men in Sheds is a UK mental health initiative for blokes. This interview supports the fact that men tend to talk more in sheds than in conventional therapy settings!

[@Kieop]

Just stumbled across this. What a great interview! They are both firing on all cylinders. Despite being in schtick mode it contains some good information and some fun quotables.

[@paulcachia3480]

Love it the video and interview!! 👍❤

[@lisalentile177]

He's funny love him

[@dedrajade5394]

Just ❤️ him

[@BabaBest2000]

"To decompose" Wow.

[@Dadaadad268]

Loads of great info in this interview! Must have been tough speaking about Linda so soon after she died. I’m sure this topic would have been cleared with him pre-interview though

[@DarianClarkMusic]

Loved the interview, thanks for sharing!

[@lucyP212]

WOW Paulie is very Sweet i love you Paulie👩👦😇💙💙⛦

[@sappo504]

Great interview. Maybe one of the only ones where the interviewer treats Paul like he's (almost) just another guy, he's not intimidated or in awe of him. This, it seems to me, brings out the "regular guy" side of Paul. I think he enjoyed the quick witty back and forth, and he's VERY good at it. Someone in the comments here said you can tell he's been "through the mill" recently and I agree with that. His spirit seems a little weak, God love him. He and Linda were a real pair.

[@debrabugay6335]

Love you Paul

[@ferabra8939]

This is just after Linda died and he was still putting on the Beatle Paul act. Because it's an act, it's always been an act. Both he and Lennon (and George and Ringo too), had a more serious side to them and just played The Beatles that we all know and love.

[@eddiebrophy503]

The timing noted is wrong. This interview is from late 1999, a good 18 months after the death of his wife.

[@NaaHva]

That's right. In the early 60s "Paul" was played by a guy named John

[@stevenrutter4910]

....at 2:18 - it's ''SlurpPaul'' !

[@MichaelSmith-ui5zs]

lol, very good.

[@Me-ji2pn]

18:18 Linda died in April of 1998 and he is says 18 months so it is probably 1999 not 1998

You are beautiful

[@davegriffmusic]

Everything was better in the 90s

[@DangerousDavies2008]

It really was.

[@lotushealingsanctuary]

Yea, just a bit. ❤️ you Paul. Don't take crap and always a charmer ~

[@KenjiKitahara]

"My Only Baby"... I think she meant "No Other Baby".

[@garyshaffer1409]

Through the mill. Yeah, it's etched all over his face. Just 15 years after all those interviews in 1984 where he appeared so young still.

[@Me-ji2pn]

Linda only died in April of 1998 and he is says 18 months so it is probably 1999 not 1998

[@davegriffmusic]

Me Run Devil Run was definitely 1999

[@debrabugay6335]

Paul is adorable and funny

[@justiceforjamespaulmccartney]

This is Billy. Paul died in 1966.

[@p0llenp0ny]

0:07 Oof no wonder it's called the Big Breakfast. I suddenly have a craving for milk.

Paul is tough as nails, if he has to be.

Amazing to think he was 82 here

Lol He was 57. He is not even 82 today yet.

That's just killer! Ha! @ 2:20

[@crmay72]

I wish he would quit interrupting Macca....so annoying!

[@Greenballoffire]

14:20

[@curlywurly4770]

Johnny may come across as disrespectful, but I think Paul quite liked his cockiness as he's used to people fawning over him and must be refreshing to be talked to like a lad. Apparently he asked Johnny for advice on his marriage years later!

[@pete5184]

Johnny Vaughan is so annoying, he constantly interrupted Paul, mid-sentance throughout the interview

[@benwright9853]

Macca?? What izzy now? A Cheese Burger? Come On.

[@johnmack3017]

Macca has been his official nickname for decades. Sometimes The fab Macca. Its what the music press called him.

[@gladtidings6020]

Interviewer is a bit disrespectful. Paul is not liking this at all.

[@davehoward22]

?where don't he like it?

[@sparkipeat2255]

Back off Johnny, let the man speak!

[@deafears4025]

He needs to shed the attitude. Sorry!
