Matthew Rhys on Windsor Davies, Michael Sheen and dinner with David Walliams in Rome

It’s a return match for Matthew Rhys and Rob Brydon, in this, Matthew’s second appearance on the pod. The impressions run thick and fast. From Tom Jones, to Richard Burton with cameos by Larry Grayson and Windsor Davies. The showbiz tales are solid gold. Matthew also shares some rather intimate advice he received from Kenneth Cranham before he appeared naked on stage, and we find out why Matthew has recently grown a moustache….

Rob and Matthew is a perfect combination. I laughed the whole time. Mr Rhys, even when he has "nothing to do", is one of the best conversationalists ever 😂

[@MikeRiderOOO]

God bless you Wales for making such lovely gents like Rob Brydon and Matthew Rhys. Duw bendithia cymru.

[@mair1327]

Brilliant episode! I'd love to be a fly on the wall if Rob Brydon, Mathew Rhys, Michael Sheen,Luke Evans, Rhys Ifans and Anthony Hopkins got together. What amazing Welsh talent. So funny, so natural.😊

[@carina9295]

Leaving out John Rhys-Davis and Sir Tom, eh?

[@mrhandsneigh]

Women not allowed?

[@livb6945]

I'd include Taron Egerton

[@haydenduvall162]

Loved every nanosecond of that. Can we just give Mr.Brydon a massive budget and allow him to travel the world chatting with people?

[@mattmid7012]

He was brilliant in The Americans. Cracking series.

[@rachelbrough8160]

Absolutely love this, adore Matthew Rhys Evans, sad we don't see more of him on our screens. Talented versatile actor, charming, intelligent, naturally funny and down to earth....not to mention ruddy gorgeous!! Loved your chat with him 😊❤

[@enders357]

Fantastic interview, and what a lovely man Matthew Rhys is. I feel a rewatch of The Americans coming on...

[@adsal100]

You two should do a double act. Bloody brilliant! And the moustache should have its own agent!

[@3506Dodge]

Matthew is sounding homesick.

[@nolansdavid]

A film about Owain Glyndwr? Take my money NOW! The world needs this.

Wonderful rapport. Thank you for injecting this rainy day in Canada with Welshness and humour.

Oh the gift 🎁 of Welsh on Welsh banter! 😂 when both people want the opposite friend the shine 😊 true friendship

[@omjulie]

there is no man more entertaining nor handsome than matthew rhyss.. i hope he considers and energy clearing --perhaps the chakras..hope to see him in something soon! love him!

[@Highland_Moo]

Windsor biopic would be fabulous! Matthew looks proper lush with a moustache!

[@alexc3744]

Can never have too many anecdotes! I laughed all the way through this. Brilliant.

[@maizie9454]

rhys is one of the worlds best actors. id watch him in anything

[@simonwoodthrillerwriter]

Loved this interview. As British person in the US, I can't have conversations like this with anyone here because no one knows any of these references. This interview was like a warm hug. Thanks. :)

[@parakart]

As a fellow Brit over here too, I can relate to this 🙂

[@ineffablemars]

As an American.. you’re wrong 😌

[@rachelbrough8160]

@@ineffablemars Nope, you are most certainly in the minority then 😆 Most Americans would be absolutely oblivious to those mentioned here.

[@joannefairclough7960]

Beautiful, funny and self effacing Matthew in excellent conversation with his Welsh compatriot ! Thank you, Rob and Matthew this made my day ❤

[@richardsedding8444]

@Rob Brydon what a wonderful dose of Welshness. Thank you both for cheering up my after class marking.

[@madderhat5852]

I actually owned a "It Ain't Half Hot , Mum" annual when I was a youngster. Please make a movie of Matthew's Welsh Elvis movie.

[@hellodavey1902]

Binged watched "The Americans" over the summer.... my favourite show and my favourite person ever since... :)

Caveat - As an American I don't know what you're talking about, but I will donate if you two & Richard do anything for Red Nose Day. ✌️💜

[@frankshailes3205]

That was lovely. Up the Welsh! (Didn't Richard Burton also play a homosexual gangster in that Villain film, with Ian McShane? He never seemed comfortable in those roles)

[@gwynevans6440]

lol he did. McShane said on Jonathan Ross' BBC show that Burton told him he found it easy because he thought McShane looked like Liz Taylor!
