Greg Davies is one of the best storytellers. If I seem him in a thumbnail I immediately click on it because I know I'm in for a good time and a laugh.

[@MY-ui6uc]

I see what you did there (I think? reference to teacher of year story)

[@steveo7767]

The washing story he told on Graham was hilarious!

[@FakingANerve]

Whenever I see Greg Davies, I instinctively shout out "BUT OF COURSE THEEUUHH WEGETABLES!!"

[@bcaye]

Or "CUSHON!"

[@FakingANerve]

@@bcaye Yes! CUSHON!!

[@CS-pi5oc]

Baghdad.

[@theupwardspiral1580]

😂🤣😂🤣😂 same this cracks me up

[@ilonamusicpl]

Bad dong

[@graemeadamson7272]

Greg Davies is just a brilliantly funny bloke , total magic .

[@bujin1977]

The person who gave this video a title thinks that "person X 'can't cope' with person Y's story" is clickbait. The only clickbait I needed was "Greg Davies".

[@LindaC616]

So true!

[@northenderp]

Love Ruth Wilson and Greg Davies. Ruth has a very alluring quality and Greg just cracks me up.

[@lyndaw7152]

I love Greg Davies. I really liked Cuckoo. It was my first time seeing him and I have watched every show that I can get on Britbox. (I'm Canadian) Also Man Down and now The Cleaner. My son and I watch Taskmaster together over Zoom.

[@mmxcix]

Mr. Gilbeeert!

[@richardlionheart3935]

Ruth couldn't cope? She laughed normally. God I'm getting sick of all the click bate titles on youtube.

[@WotchaLookinAt1]

Greg came into where I worked once and even as a 40 year old woman I shouted out "Oi Mr.Gilbert" he turned and I ducked behind a pallet of stock.

[@nolovelost4020]

😂😂

[@ashleyrozanski86]

Greg Davies is fantastic! He is hysterical! Would love to be able to see him live ❤❤

[@pamelaspooner7183]

Bless his heart, Greg needs a better professional optometrist who will get him fitted correctly for his glasses. The side arms of his glasses need to be much longer so they fit and are more comfortable. Hope he sees this because it’s not fair they slip all the time.

[@78625amginE]

Optometrists don't fit glasses. But as a former optician of 6 yrs, you are absolutely correct. They fit terribly!

[@GordonHeaney]

It's rare to see an Optometrist fit glasses, they're usually testing in a room most of the day. Having worked in optics for 25 years, I can tell you that there will not be many frames that properly fit a head of that size. His choice would be severely restricted. Boring reply, but there you go.

[@joeylaird77]

Greg just makes me smile 😊

[@jadefire2817]

Greg is just *so* good-looking! It's a shame they don't cast him as anything other than "funny" or "the tall bloke". He's so much more.

[@CJ-ft9yo]

A lot of women fancy him !

[@lidis9348]

She looks like she's coping just fine??

[@ErenTheWarcriminal]

I'd cope her so hard bro

[@ThatCoalSoul]

You started watching ...it worked.

[@chuck1804]

Nonsense clickbait.

[@alzychoze6591]

She looks like a time traveler from the 80’s

[@LindaC616]

Are you asking us, or telling us?

[@Annie-fx7xc]

Ruth Wilson is a brilliant actress !

[@anastasiabeaverhausen8220]

She is.

[@pr-tj5by]

100%

[@stephennewton2777]

Terrifyingly brilliant as Alice…

[@darthmarticusLFC]

I can't believe everyone stayed professional at the notion of Ruth doing scenes with 100 men in 24 hours.

[@roberto0076]

That thought entered my dirty mind too

[@randymorash7013]

Not guest pairing that comes to mind, but they both graciously stepped up and had a good time. They both seem relaxed and genuinely engaged in the process of social interaction, revealing some insight into their characters. How the viewer would like a talk show to be.

[@_Highvalue_]

You a fuckin therapist or what?

[@AMMI357]

I absolutely loved Ruth Wilson in Luther ❤

[@carolgarland3282]

She’s brilliant!

[@anastasiabeaverhausen8220]

He doesn't look all that much like Doc Martin. lol Ruth Wilson is one of the greats of her generation. Scary as hell on Luther and His Dark Materials and I'm still amazed by her unforgettable portrait of her grandmother in Mrs. Wilson. At first it didn't even occur to me that the "Mrs. Wilson" of the title was related to her...and then she told the story on an american chat show and the audience actually gasped out loud.

[@ctwoolley1974]

Absolute Greg Davies = “Ithink we can still see the serial killer in you!”

[@Anasyub]

greg is so funny but hes also so genuinely nice like he doesnt come off as a rude big guy hes such a nice guy, also he has such funky socks

[@carrieduff1388]

Ruth is definitely coping.

[@neilacrabtree1617]

Greg makes me laugh every time😂😅😂 I see him. Would love to see him live in concert!

[@pr-tj5by]

Ruth was brilliant in Luther and Jane Eyre

[@uniquerebeljaney3639]

To me, she is Jane Eyre. When I read it, she and Toby are how I picture Jane and Rochester now.

[@pr-tj5by]

@@uniquerebeljaney3639 Yeah I've watched different versions and those 2 are easily the best I've seen

[@simonrussell4986]

I especially like the bit where Ruth Wilson didn't cope with Greg's story.

[@liberatoreZ]

The Cleaner's template is actually a german series called "Der Tatortreiniger".

[@graeme9679]

Two of my favourite people. Ruth is beautiful.

[@Roswell33]

Theres something about her I really like. Shes a great actress too! I didnt even realise she was english until now and I usually get irritated when people feign accents for films because I can hear even slight inaccuracies. Wowza

[@mbs26385]

He should ask Ruth Wilson to be on The Cleaner.

[@magnificentfailure2390]

I love Jonathan Woss.

[@jeffwenberg4321]

On our visit my girlfriend sat in the chair at the Dog House where Greg Davies sat for a picture while he was visiting the pub. Apparently its a favourite place for him, and she was just in heaven.

[@CommanderLodrag]

She has a gorgeous voice ……I thought she was wonderful in “Luther “ ……very beautiful and attractive woman !

[@hessie666]

I adore him ❤❤❤

[@notactuallymyrealname]

This was a cute interview, but Ruth seems very able to cope with Greg's Ridley Scott story.

[@chrisp1355]

Wonderful to see Ruth.

[@DanJohnson]

I have to be honest, I think Ruth Wilson coped very well with Greg's story.

[@isabelthompson6698]

Ruth wilson is a brilliant actress and she is brilliant in the woman in the wall. I highly recommend it.

[@enthusedtosing9655]

Greg Davies. English Teacher, Actor Aspiring Engineer

[@uniquerebeljaney3639]

I'd love to be told off by Greg Davies.

[@TheBS1000]

I knew the moment I read the video title that Greg Davies must have been approached to play one of the engineers in Prometheus based solely on his height.

[@GyppoMarx]

One ep in of LUTHER and Ruth grew on me as a dark anti-hero. Greg Davies as Martin Clunes! lol

[@forgeteverythingyouknow5413]

why clickbait lie though... she smiled.... WOW.... really couldnt cope!!!!

[@ElliotG89]

Omg she COULD NOT COPE with that story....................

[@philippawallacedunlop9393]

OPENING NIGHT is my favorite film of all time!! 🎉 great idea

[@sierrahunterlewis7677]

LOOK I WOULD TOTALLY LOVE TO SPEND TIME with GREG 🎉🎉🎉🌹

[@goodgoodstuff]

She coped fine. Click bait titles are not the good stuff.

[@ardnegagnurug3903]

Aah Marisa Coulter. I was wondering where have I seen her. 😂

[@buggyboogle9]

This set so much resembles that of Graham Norton’s set including the fruit bowl on the table… except that the couch is yellow. Jonathan though seems very off here, almost self conscious.

[@eamonfire]

Too many people having a bit of trouble distinguishing reality from drama on the telly.

[@Oligodendrocyte139]

Brilliant advert timing😂. 4:48 You do the same what with 100 different men?!

[@deborahpolk1854]

great on taskmaster

[@user-ll4yi6wv3e]

COUSION

[@bec2224]

I had that exact same pantsuit in baby blue in 1987...

[@photophrodo]

The standards for coping with things must be dropping.

[@carolinekeogh5100]

😂

[@andrewwhite1305]

I would love to see the Klang boys do a Taskmaster special. Leslie included

[@2Madre]

The FOXmaster rawrr

[@mm9773]

Woof Wilson!

[@CMDR_Verm]

I've been smitten with Ms. Wilson since her role in Luther. How cool can a character be? Psychopath or not.

[@rjb6327]

I'm not a big Jonathan Ross fan. But I do like Greg Davies.

[@MultiVince95]

[@eternallearner4753]

Must be referring to another clip 🤔

[@armpitfuzz]

I agree with him being an actor.......... Inbetweeners forever

[@informedchoice2249]

Who put Ruth in that outfit? Shaq wants his trousers back, the jacket has been cut off so he probably doesn't want that ;)

[@vickywitton1008]

I am glad someone said it! It seems celebrity women wear things the rest of us wouldn't be seen dead in!

[@rych7852]

Who else went and Googled Helena Bonham Carter and Greg Davies 😂😂

[@BedriddenRiddims]

She seemed to cope pretty well to be honest

[@kikidevine694]

But Greg, she needs at least one tall man

[@expectationlost]

And the ripped guy they did use in Prometheus

[@nimhbus5465]

she seemed to cope just fine.

[@richardking3206]

Was Ruth Wilson a last minute stand-in here? For such a terrific actress she wasn’t much involved in the chat. I love Greg Davies, but this was an interview with him, with a couple of Ruth questions thrown in to stop her feeling she was being ignored entirely.

[@kollerastleithner]

"Can't Cope"?

[@echognomecal6742]

They just as easily could have titled this, "Greg Davies' Stoned Audition"

[@domc7539]

She literally didn't react

[@Jasonkenny-]

I’m sure I’ve seen a film similar to Ruth’s stage play…

[@andrewwhite1305]

Or at least have Merrick be Alex's assistant, who Greg loves and admonishes Alex.

[@armpitfuzz]

What is with Johnathon Ross's Dr Phil over sized jackets ???????????????????????????????????????????????

[@bigh7972]

Wicky what are you doing on Jonathan Ross? Time to get to another crime scene clean up…. Chop chop….

[@echognomecal6742]

Just looked up Martin Clunes. ...really?!

[@CARLIN4737]

I honestly have No idea who she is and im like 55? Love my movies etc.

[@lillired857]

Watch 'Luther' you wont regret it

[@lillired857]

The series.

[@mrmoran0077]

Who's the bird?

[@streef88]

It astounds me that a grown man can have such a speech impediment... So common in England. Don't their teachers or parents ever step in to correct "baby talk"?

[@idaslapter5987]

i think he does it on purpose. its annoying AF.

[@crispycookie9739]

Both brilliant performers! (Can't believe JR kisses RW and shakes hands with GD-can we get rid of this double standard?)

[@IRISHTVBITS]

wooth ?

[@SurfergirlKH]

The cleaner is a rip-off from a german show called TATORTREINIGER and it is honestly so much better in german. Sorry Greg but Bjarne Mädel just brings something to the role that can’t be reciprocated ..

[@NomadUniverse]

She barely chuckled...where's the cant cope bit?

[@linrob1312]

Ross copying Norton's set now...he's ditched the desk.

[@travelwell6049]

Is she on her way to an 80’s fancy dress party?

[@travelwell6049]

Oh yes, I thought I'd seen this video before.

[@happivaras]

Cuts to soon

[@CunningPlanBaldrick]

Pretty dull interviews if we're being honest.

[@Al-cynic]

Jonathan Ross gone all Graham Norton...lol...#patheticoldman

[@camnsprencheria3225]

Greg would be a great Darth Vader!

[@TheBS1000]

I would watch the shit out of every Star Wars project if Greg Davies was Darth Vader. Especially if they let him voice the character.
