The Downbeat Podcast - Leigh Gill (Joker, Game Of Thrones)

My guest on the podcast this week is actor Leigh Gill. You may know him as Gary from the oscar winning movie Joker, as well as his roles on Game of Thrones, The Witcher, and his latest movie Blitz. We got terrifically drunk and talked what it's like to work with Joaquin Phoenix and hang out with Al Pacino. Mental.

Hahahahaha omg 😂😂 so I am 4ft 8” for full disclosure!

[@reynlord666]

💀 omg she’s here I’m sorry

[@power_midget]

@@reynlord666 you summoned me by saying my name three times 😂😂😂

[@richardjack295]

The crossover we didn’t expect, but we deserve!

[@leighgillactor]

@power_midget it’s so funny that you saw this! Did someone mention it to you or were you just randomly watching it & not expecting your name to pop up? 😂

[@BurnTheNuance]

​@@reynlord666 Thanks for summoning her. I found a very nice social account. Very, VERY nice. Cheers.

"It wouldn't be on your back it would be on mine" and then standing up to reveal the Joker 2 logo literally on his back might be the best bit of subtle comedy ever to happen on this podcast and it probably won't ever be topped. Audio only listeners don't know what they're missing

[@aaronstickle]

The last 40 seconds have me crying 😂

[@rollthed20]

Honestly, it was also extremely well executed. I even read your comment first and when that part happened I just immediately assumed it was a drunken stumble, and then I proceeded to scream

[@joeslleyrocha2424]

"m*dget with an a at the end" absolutely fucking cooked me

[@fredwhatmore2649]

This is the least focused podcast I've ever heard in my life, 10/10

[@vitruviandrums]

Leigh Gill is fucking hilarious. What a guy. I’ve never really seen much about him before but what a genuine lad.

[@chancedillbeck]

Your subtle look you gave him when he was possibly slipping up about Joker 2 was hilarious! This one was great!💜

[@moonlitxkatie]

this just kept getting better and better the longer you guys talked lmao 10/10

[@CharlieViking95]

WAIT WHAT, WE'RE GETTING ACTORS NOW? 🔥🔥🔥

[@j.9_6]

The downbeat pod is NEXT, bro!!! 🔥

[@mikeyj3512]

This is the best of your podcasts so far. Love seeing drummers and other artists but this was killer

[@AndrewJShirley]

The sound effects and your faces fucking did me in 🤣😂

[@vickiemcarthur6066]

Leigh getting so pissed and taking 15 minutes to almost get to the point is literally me drunk 😂😂😂😂😂

[@leighgillactor]

Craig did so well tryna keep me on track! I’m the bloody worst when I’m drunk! 😂

[@anthonyk0420]

Al pacino should’ve said “ say hello to my little friend “ while introducing you! 😂

[@blakel29]

This was amazing! Great episode

[@ZrankFappaH]

Craig you HAVE to have Leigh as a regular! Dude is so awesome and funny. As are you Craig, as are you.

[@paulwingert9993]

The snowpatrol bit at the end killed me.

[@dillongorman7538]

This was awesome!! Definitely one of my favorites if not my favorite episode yet!!

[@joshuamurray5709]

Absolutely great episode, never cease to amaze with the calibre of guests you get on these

[@theknobking2258]

honestly one of my favourite episodes you've done. also for someone who can't talk about whether they're in the next joker movie or not it's pretty funny that he's literally wearing a joker folie à deux t shirt

[@rickybonngarcia]

This podcast is brilliant, I haven't laughed so hard in a while. Amazing conversation and great energy!

[@liammacgregor1546]

This was a brilliant pod. Loved this one... Please never stop reaching out to other guests. You'll be hopefully getting Leigh on again. Much love to you, from Scotland ❤️😎

[@ngaugeblading9690]

Amazing episode! Leigh has had such the life. Can't wait to see him back on the podcast

[@maxharris9278]

Peak british comedy, this episoded had me COOKED

[@Gaviid]

Leigh was fantastic in Joker. Hopeful he has a role in Joker 2.

[@joshtappz]

fantastic episode

[@eyetoi]

Literally went back and watched Joker again to see Leigh after this.

[@karimashrafmounir5813]

this is brilliant

[@DTwys]

This was amazing 😂

[@S-B-R]

Bro that ba ba baaaa was so perfect

[@bencoleman2446]

I am SURE I was at the show where Leigh was thrown into the crowd. It was at Bodega in Nottingham I believe, it was crazy. Thank you Leigh for getting them to play Damien 💖

[@ianarnold3616]

Yes! I would agree this podcast has been the funniest so far 😂

[@archaicjames]

What an episode!

[@dannygage4218]

[@andrewalexander4206]

Great chat lads 😂❤

[@PhilSheldonDrums]

This episode was too good! Could not stop laughing 😆

[@SamiK1989]

What a timing, I just sat down to eat my lunch and this popped up 🥹💻👊🏻

[@jkh3959]

Man I'm six minutes in and literally lol'ed two times already

[@CrashBlastSmash]

Can we get more non-music friends but in the scene? This was class.

[@JamieSlays]

This is most I have cried in ages 😂

[@PR0PJ0E]

Leigh is such a legend. Amazing to see how successful he’s become. Agincourt represent!

[@poshiesymons666]

Best podcast ever

[@J1T3]

Fackin love Leigh, had some piss ups with him and he's sound. Been waiting for this pod

[@ShizzyHollywood]

“I was singing along!” 😂😂😂 Bruh this episode destroyed me 😂

[@CloseUpLover]

Good to know I can now nut on displate and it will reject the liquid. Thanks GREG

[@SDREHXC]

Nice to you see you feeling comfortable enough to reach out beyond the music industry for guests, though I suppose this was heavily influenced by being friends already, hopefully it is indicative that people that aren’t musicians or music industry involved will also bring in an audience. Edit: also that displate discount seems insane lol is that normal? I genuinely might look into getting one because of it, they’re super cool but a bit pricey normally.

[@reynlord666]

thank you! it's 22-33% normally for the code DOWNBEAT but i think from the 28-31 of this month its 25 and 35%

[@sebastian.lightup]

"is it too early 5 minutes in...?" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@black_hunter.691]

Yes

[@MaxxD]

Remind me to never ask this dude to sign an NDA! Great pod, cheers 👍🏼

[@leighgillactor]

It’s all good dude, this was released AFTER my casting had been officially announced 👍🏻 plus, I didn’t actually talk about anything, I just simply wore a nice t-shirt that WB sent me 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[@michael_drum]

I’m more surprised that slipknot don’t use ear protection 😮

[@emreakarsu2528]

Brilliant

[@americanbrandon]

5:42 😝 the pinky!!!

[@pajamas117]

Laughed by ass off while sitting at my desk. I’m not going to be able to watch Doctor Who in the same way now, but I’m not upset about it.

[@derekrose3328]

I missed this episode, and it takes the cake 💀 🍻 🥳 Fuckin hilarious.

[@kimsushiii]

I went to the merch store but couldn't find the aforementioned "loads" ???

[@claytonvon]

The timing on the ads lately has been comedic gold 😂

[@Billcommaagain]

What a fucking legend

[@dalekay9ine]

Little dude is fuckin LIT! Lol😂This is gold! Loved it.
