Emma Thompson - These Two Have Alot Of History - 1.2/3 Visits In Chronological Order

The outro is extremely relevant to the guest.
Am I the only one sensing Craig is implying they've had "history" There is alot of reading between the lines here. They allude to their history but they don't dive in, It's probably all in the other 1.8 part of the 3 visits. Enjoy! (btw, what a lovely woman, she is so much fun with 2 oscars in the trunk)

[@markprior2278]

I love the fact that Emma Thompson, Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry have known each other since university. and are still very close friends, also they are all lovely funny people.

[@angiecox8781]

Craig lived with Helen Atkinson Wood for five years. Emma was her friend .sadly Helen had to break with him as she quote " didn't want to see him die" ( drink and drugs ).

The British industry is utterly different than the American one. Actors are trained and spend a lot of time on stage and know each other. They're intelligent, well spoken, actual human beings.

she does get to the end of it. she had someone drag her into the lake and pretend to drown her or something like that and it made the children laugh

9:40 Emma Thompson told the story about how she had to apologise to the Isle of White for the 'stoning homosexuals' comment when she was on the Graham Norton show...and that's how I discovered this fellow called Craig Ferguson. #TrueStory

[@CraigGrant-sh3in]

I just found this on his Wiki page. "In January 2023, Sony Pictures Television (SPT) announced a new, half-hour syndicated late night talk show with Craig Ferguson as host. Channel Surf with Craig Ferguson will be produced by Whisper North and will be distributed by SPT. A pilot for Channel Surf with Craig Ferguson was shot in the UK this month at Dock10 studios, and SPT will take the show out to potential buyers in Los Angeles."

[@marjanp4784]

Emma Thompson is the smartest woman in the world...❤️

[@MsZiDu]

To answer the question in your description: yeah, I also think Craig is implying he and Emma had sex, but I think in his typical joking way though. He's implying it by saying things like "it's almost like you've taken control of me before", but I doubt they really had sex. That real sexual vibe doesn't seem to be there between them. At least, I don't get that feeling. They've known each other for a really long time (since the mid eighties, I believe) and are good friends. I think Craig and Emma are just comfortable enough with each other (and share the same sense of humour) to make sexual jokes like that. Also, about the story from the outro- Emma also talks about that story on The Graham Norton Show (the episode with her, Hugh Grant and Luke Evans as guests). Emma just seems to really have a thing for showing people her breasts. On QI she also told a story about how she liked to appear nude at the top of Stephen Fry's stairs, lock all the doors so he couldn't get out, and sort of shake her breasts at him and go "yes baby, they're all yours" (because breasts make Stephen nervous) 😝. And in the film Peter's Friends her character also flashed Stephen's character, if I remember correctly. She's just a crazy lady and it's hilarious. 😂

[@TheJayLenoFly]

That about answers all my questions and clears everything up :D Thank you for taking the time man, best comment this week I'd say. Interesting too. I love the bit about Stephen Fry haha :D
