Mr. Armitage is simply stunning - I'm lost for words - I can't breathe. Thank you so so much for this amazing delight. Ms Boland, your interviewing skills are second to none; the interview is perfectly balanced between in-depth questions and fun, with an impeccable understanding of when to hold back and when to ask again for clarification (for the fans!). Sitting here in Denmark (am I the only one?), amazed, impressed, stunned ...
I can't thank you all enough at The Anglophile Channel for setting up this interview with Richard! It's been so fantastic seeing him so relaxed and having fun! He seems like a genuinely beautiful human being and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I will someday have the immense privilege of meeting him :)
"Sticking a tongue in the melon" DYING!!! I will just leave that one alone. lol!!!! So great to hear about his theatrical background. And, can you just imagine if they did NOT cast him in North & South?! Great Part 2...Ready for Part 3!!!!
lovely! I never knew he moved to NY. I hope he doesn't forget that he has loads of fans in Europe who love him! (I'm from malta , the small island in the middle of the Mediterranean). xxxxx
Thanks for this second part Marlise. Very interesting and thoughtful. A reader on his own... any time I listen or read an interview I respect him more than before. He's a fantastic human being and a terrific actor. I wish him all the luck in the world [cit. Bofur]
Love that he talked about things we've never (I've never) heard before....snogging a watermelon......physical theatre......etc....great part two.....bring on the next segment! Marlise, you are terrific! No other interview I've seen with him even begins to come close to this!
What an amazing interview! If it were me I;d be talking too fast or stuttering so badly from nerves! You did us women proud!! haha I hope he knows how many ADORING fans he has in Australia! Oh Rich, pleeeeeeease come back? Pleeeease?
FABULOUS interview, Marlise and Anglophile channel!!! It was so interesting to hear about RA's childhood and more background on his early career. But, please Richard, don't Twitter. As much as I would love to see you there, I don't think you will ever gain anything by it career-wise. That is only my opinion. I'm very excited to see Part 3 of this interview!!
Have been following his career for years and have seen almost every interview he's ever done, and this is far and away the best one. He's relaxed, relating well to Ms. Boland, who does a bang-up job, btw. Finally, we get to see the "real" RA in an interview. Good job! Very very well done!
Hi Gang, Still editing Part 3. Thanks for all the insightful comments. I will be mindful of the background music in part 3. I know that we are all not listening on the same device. I will bring it down for Pt 3, but it has to be there (for our reasons). But, here is what I am planning. When Part 3 and then the Outtakes come out, I plan on posting a complete version featuring all 3 episodes in one with NO music. That will be just for you, so you can make clean ringtones, clips, etc, without music playing. Hope that sounds good to you. Marlise and I are so thrilled with all of you and the positive vibe we have all felt this week. Look for Part 3 sometime this weekend! All the best!
Oh Paul that will be lovely! Patiently waiting .......well, TRYING to .....for Part 3....and then there is OUT TAKES! Oh that will be so very, very grand!
Just for you Diane! It's 4:37am a few more touches and it will be ready to go. I will make the 9am PST deadline! :-) Can't wait for everyone to see how this all ends!
Wonderful interview! Richard Armitage is a great actor, we admire him ! He is indeed majestic and perfect. Thank you Mr. Armitage for your wonderful work! I can't wait for the next part!
this is wonderful , THANKYOU anglophile , we are learning more about Richard .than in any other interview .What a lovely lovely man , Im smitten all over again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Marlise Boland is such a cool interviewer she really put Richard at ease and his personality comes through and she gives him chance to talk Marlise truly nails it with Richard she brings out the best in him
I think this interview is Legendary.... in terms of reading the future! I mean... I'm re-whatching this now and I know NOW that Richard has a twitter account, that he has done a whole movie in a wet shirt (and 5 tornados, yes, but that's not the point XD) AND they throw an ice bucket on him, so he went through the wet SUIT... and he went back to theatre in Lodon... and OhMyGod, what's going on?? I love you, Anglophile... XXD
Great work on the interview! So glad you are asking questions that are new and most of all it's so great to see him relaxed and actually enjoying himself.
These interviews are wonderful, thank you so much for asking great questions! I just can't believe he likes Northanger Abbey lol I gotta read that again and see it through his eyes.
Thank you Marlise and the rest of the team! It's so rare for him to have a relaxed interview where he can just talk about Richard instead of being so rushed and careful in his answers like when he's promoting something. He's so at ease with you Marlise, he must really like you (wink wink, nudge nudge hee hee!) And great questions, so nice that he can talk at length about what's in his mind.
This is wonderful Marlise! You obviously made Richard feel comfortable and relaxed so that he was able to open up in ways many of us haven't witnessed before. A gift indeed. So great to see him having fun! :) The more I listen to him and watch him the more mesmerized by him I become. His humility and intelligence always shine through. Such a lovely, lovely man. Thank you!!
What an amazing second part interview ! What an amazing man ! He is so charming, so clever, always interesting in his replies...We have even learned new things about the circus (Lol ! when he said fans will kill you, Marlise ! No, you don't risk anything !!!). We have heard new things about him and his professional experiences ! Sincerely, a gReAt interview ! Many thanks for all the happiness you give to all RA fans
I enjoyed this interview very much. It was easy, flowing and not the "same ole' thing"..Glad to hear RA is living in New York. Hope to see a lot of his talent in the future.
What a witty and interesting interview! There's a great chemistry between Richard and you Marlise - very much looking forward to part 3 (and of course the bloopers!) P.S. I think I'll be not the only one smiling when eating a melon in future ;-)
AMAZING interview...and this part really got indepth....just amazing hearing him talk about his acting process and his childhood...so rare to hear him talk about how he got into acting. Thanks again for giving us this gift.
TheAnglophileChannel It is beyond amazing. His intellect and sense of humor shine through and Marlise your brilliance in drawing him out is truly outstanding, you really do have a gift for this. :)
There is going to be another part!? I'm dying here! Thank you! This is the best interview ever. I love how much he knows an loves literature. He is my favorite actor because of reasons!
Thank you so much for this. This is so great. Can you call him back for more interviews? Loved to hear him talking about Jane Austen, drama school, North and South... Greetings from Germany!
Recently RA took a picture where he, as a joke, pretended to hang himself with his necktie. You know, the one every man does at least once in his lifetime? Certain fans freaked out, thought it was in "poor taste to joke about suicide," etc. He will get directly exposed to a fanbase that has already, repeatedly, proven itself to be full of very sensitive people. Then there is the fact that fans have tried to draw him into their online drama before. And there is the fact that every single personal thing he posts will be picked apart, magnified and mostly likely misinterpreted. Just look at the furor that occurred from someone else tweeting about him going to see a movie with a cast mate. Seriously, distance protects him and us. And then there's way it will cut into his personal time away from celebrity. Right now he can walk away from celebrity for days, even weeks at a time. Twitter is a leash with fans checking daily and complaining when he doesn't post. And in the end is it going to do anything for him professionally? No. Seriously, what got Liam Neeson his eight-figure paychecks was his work. Not any Facebook page or Twitter feed. It's too much hassle for too little reward. If they want to set up something his publicist runs, I think that will work. But I think him running his own feed would be a mistake.
There was an Episode of the British TV drama about M1-5 which he was in for 2 years in which he was asked to stand on a chair and put his head in a noose. It wasn't a joke scene, it was meant to be his character attempting suicide in prison. He was also waterboarded- for real- for that series. He's done some really dark, really extreme things in the course of his career for various roles.
Wow.... yes, I have to agree with the others, great job Marlise! You have such a relaxing way about you and it really feels like RA is enjoying himself more than he does in his other interviews (he's not rude there mind you, always polite). Learned two things I didn't know about him either: he was a former tap dancer (wish I could see him perform that!) and an avid lit geek (yay!). Great questions but if you meantioned Austen and Gaskell, I wish you could have brought up Georgette Heyer. I'm just assuming but I THINK he's a fan given how he's lent his voice to two or more Heyer audio books.
Marlise, you are the best! What an amazing interview. Did I ever laugh!! Very dangerous thing "saying yes to everything".. He looks genuinely relaxed and happy. Can't wait to see part 3? Any news on when that will be posted? Continue with the great work😀
"Who wants to know what I think about anything!" Actually very wise words. Considering how many actors and celebrities love to spout off about things they know almost nothing about, and aren't qualified to comment on. I love how RA isn't one of those actors who is always commenting on politics/current affairs and everything.
Is there have English subtitle? I'm from China but couldn't clearly enough what Richard said…and i wanna translate to Chinese, anyone can help me? Thanks…
I love this interview! You do such a great job of letting him talk and not cutting his answers short, like other interviewers have done. But, do you think you could play the interview without the background music? At some point I became aware of it and then it was hard to tune it out. :-)
In the teaser, you showed a moment when he was drinking water and said: "Oh, let's not go there!" Would you please be kind and include that segment in Part 3 so we can find out what the question was to which he replied that answer? Thank you very much!
Hey, he's doing his "meme" mime! And someone needs to show him the Cats YT rehearsal videos, there is no question whatsoever that it IS Richard, at least in the non-dress rehearsal ones.
TheAnglophileChannel Oh I would love you forever (though I already do!) if you could do that. Right now if I want to send him a letter and request, say, an autograph, I have to mail my letter, a self addressed envelope and an amount of money (for return postage) that I'm really unsure how to convert to his agents. Plus, I want him reading my mail sooner rather than later ;) Thanks!
Thanks very much for the reply...! I guess I was totally "Armitaged", and did not read the end bits! And many thanks also, Anglophile/Marlise, for this great interview! :D
This comment is not for fans of him, but for him. Richard Armitage, not to go into a completely different topic from this particular moment of the past. Sorry for my ridiculously long comments. I'm an elaborate person sometimes, but according to you probably by now, it's practically all the time. How is it you still don't get it?!! Politics generally are not intended to be funny and certainly not funny business, except for political comics! Politics is a very serious thing, and people who are political have reasons for it, not to be cruel and harsh, like you'd think! That's what politics is all about! When it comes to voting for a president of a nation, you have to have some kind of purpose instead of only for popularity! Not everyone involved in some politics are as cruel as you think! They will have reasons when they have to take care of certain situations when something's bad, and there are times when they'll strongly make a purpose to support freedom, religion, and faith. You don't understand all of the politics, so you shouldn't assume anything you don't know about or get involved, not even as little as a small conversation about it! The voting in this video does not have to be political at all, cause this non-serious voting has nothing to do with politics, of course. If you think people who are political are just harsh for no reason, you're totally wrong!!! They're not trying to combine faith with politics, and even if they did, they wouldn't make it all corrupted and lopsided! That's what you'd think cause you know nothing or understand at all what's really going on!!! Looks a lot like to me, you support the unfairness that the democrats have sometimes! It's not just the republicans! To vote for a president at election time, people have to be smart or at least smart enough to vote for the proper person or know who they're voting for and their purpose of who they're voting for. Voting for popularity and to simply just get someone in history books in the future is a reasonless purpose to vote, during election. There's a democratic, republican, and an either/or side (which is called independent). And if you're not into politics cause you think it's just cruel and harsh, then you don't vote at all and be a non-voter. I'm not too political either, but at least I'm knowledgeable enough to know and understand what I'm doing or who I'm voting for, if I do vote, so that I'll not be someone trying to get somebody in the history books or only vote for popularity! If you completely dislike or hate politics, maybe it's best you don't vote at all in your life. I get it, you're used to the peaceful life you had while growing up in your Britain hometown, not allowed to have guns or any other weapons, and you probably think everywhere has to be the same way. I understand people need to get along, but sometimes some of us need weapons to defend ourselves from being attacked, in this world. To me, banning guns and other weapons is like banning defenses, so that way, when you need to defend yourself, you'll have no defenses around handy! Oh, but wait a minute, you used guns (regardless of real or fake), yet you're so afraid to use them! Why the heck can't you make up your mind, man?!! You don't love and use guns and other weapons, but are yet so afraid to use them!!! It's either you love and use them without being so afraid of them after being trained in your life how to use them, or if you are so afraid of them, you don't use one at all, not even if it's fake! How about if you're so afraid of using one, you stop using it completely?!! But that doesn't mean you have to be like lots of other people to strongly support banning guns and other weapons!!! Not everyone uses them for violence, some use them for defense or self-defense!! By the way Richard, I read somewhere online you strongly support Obama Care. I understand health care is important to many people, except there are some people who don't really need one or a doctor, cause they're healthy. But Obama Care should not be a major important one to rely on!! A real and more helpful healthcare is more important than Obama Care!! You obviously don't know what its purposes are, other than health! Trust me, maybe Obama Care matters a lot to you, which I already know I can't change that, but keep in mind sometime to realize it's really not as important as other more important healthcares that exists out there!! All you seem to care about is popularity and nothing necessarily important! Why don't you learn the deep within of info about Obama Care before ever feeling sorry for it?!! Why can't anything matter to you?!!! Don't you ever care about anything like some of us ordinary people in the world might, other than popularity and popular talks and thoughts from so many others?!!! How about you try caring about at least someone in your life who's not popular?!!! They matter too!!!! You need to wake up and see the real world! Stop being so mentally and verbally weak enough to say "yes" to everyone about everything!! Why don't you learn to say "no" to defend what's right, especially for yourself sometimes! It's not so bad a word to say like you'd assume!

This is still the best Richard interview to ever exist.
Mr. Armitage is simply stunning - I'm lost for words - I can't breathe. Thank you so so much for this amazing delight. Ms Boland, your interviewing skills are second to none; the interview is perfectly balanced between in-depth questions and fun, with an impeccable understanding of when to hold back and when to ask again for clarification (for the fans!). Sitting here in Denmark (am I the only one?), amazed, impressed, stunned ...

I can't thank you all enough at The Anglophile Channel for setting up this interview with Richard! It's been so fantastic seeing him so relaxed and having fun! He seems like a genuinely beautiful human being and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I will someday have the immense privilege of meeting him :)
"Sticking a tongue in the melon" DYING!!! I will just leave that one alone. lol!!!! So great to hear about his theatrical background. And, can you just imagine if they did NOT cast him in North & South?! Great Part 2...Ready for Part 3!!!!
lucky melon
saiph black and i will never eat a melon again!
Thank you, Wonderful interview. Richard Armitage! A talented, intelligent,. thoughtful and humorous person.
I agree. I can think of a lot more adjectives for him, but the gist of it is, here is one actor I would proudly be a 'well-wisher' of.
lovely! I never knew he moved to NY. I hope he doesn't forget that he has loads of fans in Europe who love him! (I'm from malta , the small island in the middle of the Mediterranean). xxxxx
I love Malta! :-)
TheAnglophileChannel thanks! xx
He has the best smile! You guys did the world a great service keeping him smiling for most of the interview :3
YESSSSSS!!! This interview is the SWEETEST!!!!
Omigosh he is so enchanting! losing all sense of decorum here!!!!
Thanks for this second part Marlise. Very interesting and thoughtful. A reader on his own... any time I listen or read an interview I respect him more than before. He's a fantastic human being and a terrific actor. I wish him all the luck in the world [cit. Bofur]
He's gorgeous and such and interesting person :)
Love that he talked about things we've never (I've never) heard before....snogging a watermelon......physical theatre......etc....great part two.....bring on the next segment! Marlise, you are terrific! No other interview I've seen with him even begins to come close to this!
What an amazing interview! If it were me I;d be talking too fast or stuttering so badly from nerves! You did us women proud!! haha I hope he knows how many ADORING fans he has in Australia! Oh Rich, pleeeeeeease come back? Pleeeease?
FABULOUS interview, Marlise and Anglophile channel!!! It was so interesting to hear about RA's childhood and more background on his early career. But, please Richard, don't Twitter. As much as I would love to see you there, I don't think you will ever gain anything by it career-wise. That is only my opinion. I'm very excited to see Part 3 of this interview!!
Have been following his career for years and have seen almost every interview he's ever done, and this is far and away the best one. He's relaxed, relating well to Ms. Boland, who does a bang-up job, btw. Finally, we get to see the "real" RA in an interview. Good job! Very very well done!
Thank you Debra! That is so kind of you to say and so nice to hear. Cheers, M
Hi Gang, Still editing Part 3. Thanks for all the insightful comments. I will be mindful of the background music in part 3. I know that we are all not listening on the same device. I will bring it down for Pt 3, but it has to be there (for our reasons). But, here is what I am planning. When Part 3 and then the Outtakes come out, I plan on posting a complete version featuring all 3 episodes in one with NO music. That will be just for you, so you can make clean ringtones, clips, etc, without music playing. Hope that sounds good to you. Marlise and I are so thrilled with all of you and the positive vibe we have all felt this week. Look for Part 3 sometime this weekend! All the best!
The 3 in 1 without music will be much appreciated, thanks! Great aidea :)
And waiting for Part 3, and Outtakes of course... Grazie again!
Prego..again! :-)
Oh Paul that will be lovely! Patiently waiting .......well, TRYING to .....for Part 3....and then there is OUT TAKES! Oh that will be so very, very grand!
Just for you Diane! It's 4:37am a few more touches and it will be ready to go. I will make the 9am PST deadline! :-) Can't wait for everyone to see how this all ends!
How awesome to know that he has an appreciation for Gothic literature... Sounds like my kinda man. Great interview! :D ♥
Wonderful interview! Richard Armitage is a great actor, we admire him ! He is indeed majestic and perfect. Thank you Mr. Armitage for your wonderful work! I can't wait for the next part!
So glad you are happy! Working on Part 3 and then the Outtakes video :-)! Your positive comments mean more to us than you know!
Really, I can't wait for the Outtakes video! And of course Part 3. Grazie :)
Prego!
this is wonderful , THANKYOU anglophile , we are learning more about Richard .than in any other interview .What a lovely lovely man , Im smitten all over again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG.
You asked my question.
AAAH!
Northanger Abbey is my favourite Austen's novel, and Mr Tilney my favourite "Austen hero" :P
Marlise Boland is such a cool interviewer she really put Richard at ease and his personality comes through and she gives him chance to talk Marlise truly nails it with Richard she brings out the best in him
Thank you, Wonderful interview.!
He's so ridiculously charming. I've loved the first two parts of this interview - can't wait for part 3! Thank you Marlise and AnglophileChannel!
Wonderful interview - keep the other parts coming! Love to see him so relaxed
you are doing a great job Marlise, thank you
He's amazing!And Marlise did a great job~Thanks!
A new and refreshing interview. Thank you for asking new and entertaining questions for once!
Thank you so, so much! This made my day! For once an interview that really goes in depth and allows him to explain so many interesting things!
I think this interview is Legendary.... in terms of reading the future! I mean... I'm re-whatching this now and I know NOW that Richard has a twitter account, that he has done a whole movie in a wet shirt (and 5 tornados, yes, but that's not the point XD) AND they throw an ice bucket on him, so he went through the wet SUIT... and he went back to theatre in Lodon... and OhMyGod, what's going on?? I love you, Anglophile... XXD
Thank YOU so much Phoenix! :-)
I love this interview. It's so fun to watch... and awesome to see you both enjoying the experience :)
Brilliant!!!! Fantastic!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Great work on the interview! So glad you are asking questions that are new and most of all it's so great to see him relaxed and actually enjoying himself.
Thank you very much! It's a pleasure and a gift to watch and listen to you both.
These interviews are wonderful, thank you so much for asking great questions! I just can't believe he likes Northanger Abbey lol I gotta read that again and see it through his eyes.

TheAnglophileChannel It is beyond amazing. His intellect and sense of humor shine through and Marlise your brilliance in drawing him out is truly outstanding, you really do have a gift for this. :)
You did an awesome interview! We get to see a side of RA we rarely see.
Thank you! thank you!
I absolutely love you Richard!
There is going to be another part!? I'm dying here! Thank you! This is the best interview ever. I love how much he knows an loves literature. He is my favorite actor because of reasons!
Marvelous!!
And OMG, the melon! (snorgle)
You got "snog the melon" in this one! LOL! I think "bunnns" will be in Part 3 ;-)
Thank you so much for this. This is so great. Can you call him back for more interviews? Loved to hear him talking about Jane Austen, drama school, North and South... Greetings from Germany!
Points to this interview for coining the term "out-darcy-ed" XDD
Richard's best interview.
Smart, talented, and gorgeous! What's not to love about Richard Armitage?
Recently RA took a picture where he, as a joke, pretended to hang himself with his necktie. You know, the one every man does at least once in his lifetime? Certain fans freaked out, thought it was in "poor taste to joke about suicide," etc. He will get directly exposed to a fanbase that has already, repeatedly, proven itself to be full of very sensitive people. Then there is the fact that fans have tried to draw him into their online drama before.

He's done some really dark, really extreme things in the course of his career for various roles.
i totally loved this part of the interview and can't wait to see part 3.. p.c : we would love to see richard with a wet shirt
Its Friday night.... im doing my favourite thing watching the Anglophile Channel....
Awesome .....
This means there will be a Part 3 of the Interview :)
Wow.... yes, I have to agree with the others, great job Marlise! You have such a relaxing way about you and it really feels like RA is enjoying himself more than he does in his other interviews (he's not rude there mind you, always polite). Learned two things I didn't know about him either: he was a former tap dancer (wish I could see him perform that!) and an avid lit geek (yay!).

Marlise, you are the best! What an amazing interview. Did I ever laugh!! Very dangerous thing "saying yes to everything".. He looks genuinely relaxed and happy. Can't wait to see part 3? Any news on when that will be posted? Continue with the great work😀
Very nice. Well done .
Thanks E!
"Who wants to know what I think about anything!" Actually very wise words. Considering how many actors and celebrities love to spout off about things they know almost nothing about, and aren't qualified to comment on.
I love how RA isn't one of those actors who is always commenting on politics/current affairs and everything.
I'm speechless...
HA! This is cracking me up!
He read Shakespeare for his A Levels? That was something new I did not know before. Thanks, Marlise.
Think you will have to set up your own fan club Marlise 'cos all Richards fans love your style! ♡
Aww, that's so sweet. Thanks 2ndSister :-)
this is a very immature observation, but he'd be a hot English teacher. ;)
I can imagine )))
Squee on Richard possibly tweeting!! Do it!! Do it!! :D
oltre bello pure simpatico!!!
The fact that he now has an official Twitter account is kind of adorable. Hope it all treats him well, he deserves it! :-)
Aye I am watching this AGAIN!!!!
ME ENCANTO LA ENTREVISTA DE RA,SERIA MUCHO PEDIR SI LE PUSIERAN SUBTITULOS EN ESPAÑOL,PLEASE!...GRACIAS!!!!
Buen artista
Yes!!!! He was Darcy
Sweet interview, great rapport, but that wallpaper is just FATAL.
Is there have English subtitle? I'm from China but couldn't clearly enough what Richard said…and i wanna translate to Chinese, anyone can help me? Thanks…
I love this interview! You do such a great job of letting him talk and not cutting his answers short, like other interviewers have done. But, do you think you could play the interview without the background music? At some point I became aware of it and then it was hard to tune it out. :-)
We'll work on it for Part 3 :-) Thanks so much for watching!
Looking forward to it! Thank you!
I'm still trying to wrap my brain around "snogging a watermelon."
In the teaser, you showed a moment when he was drinking water and said: "Oh, let's not go there!" Would you please be kind and include that segment in Part 3 so we can find out what the question was to which he replied that answer? Thank you very much!
This man will be the death of me, I swear to God!
LOL!
actually,I really love his beard~!could I see his beard next time~~LOL~wait for his interview 3~~~thx!!
At 2:26 and 5:40: the magical refilling of the glass... ;)
Hey, he's doing his "meme" mime! And someone needs to show him the Cats YT rehearsal videos, there is no question whatsoever that it IS Richard, at least in the non-dress rehearsal ones.
Yes, the rehearsal videos are DEFINITELY Richard! Maybe he's seen them but don't want fans to know it's him (for whatever reason)?
"and in Budapest..." ....aaand Armitage Army fans everywhere GROAN
HAAA! I know, I know...but then we would have never gotten the fabulous "snog the watermelon" story! ;-) Good stuff!
TheAnglophileChannel You are absolutely right :) Thank you for a splendid interview!
TAKE ALL MY MONEY I WANT A WET SHIRT SHOT
SO YOU DID PLAY DARCY AFTER ALL.... PLEASEEEEEEEE you really should play that roleeee.... IT WOULD REALLY SUIT YOU AND YOUR LOVELY BLUE EYES
10:33 XD
Fantastic Richard!! Now how many women will dream when they'll buy a melon?
So he's in New York but to send him fan mail it goes to his agents in the UK... wonder if he actually reads his fan mail or not :(
He does have US reps. I can find out where fan mail can be sent in the US.
That would be fantastic Marlise, I live in Canada, so it would be so much easier to send him fan mail, if he has an addressed based in the States too.
TheAnglophileChannel Oh I would love you forever (though I already do!) if you could do that. Right now if I want to send him a letter and request, say, an autograph, I have to mail my letter, a self addressed envelope and an amount of money (for return postage) that I'm really unsure how to convert to his agents. Plus, I want him reading my mail sooner rather than later ;) Thanks!
NO PART 3?? :(
At the end of this video you'll see "Next time on...." So yes, Part 3 coming :-)
Thanks very much for the reply...! I guess I was totally "Armitaged", and did not read the end bits!
And many thanks also, Anglophile/Marlise, for this great interview! :D
well done everyone! best video yet. (until the one with colin. *wink*)
The Interviewer plays on my nerves. Who is a star- guest invited? She forgot about it defenitely.
This comment is not for fans of him, but for him.
Richard Armitage, not to go into a completely different topic from this particular moment of the past. Sorry for my ridiculously long comments. I'm an elaborate person sometimes, but according to you probably by now, it's practically all the time.
How is it you still don't get it?!! Politics generally are not intended to be funny and certainly not funny business, except for political comics! Politics is a very serious thing, and people who are political have reasons for it, not to be cruel and harsh, like you'd think! That's what politics is all about! When it comes to voting for a president of a nation, you have to have some kind of purpose instead of only for popularity! Not everyone involved in some politics are as cruel as you think! They will have reasons when they have to take care of certain situations when something's bad, and there are times when they'll strongly make a purpose to support freedom, religion, and faith. You don't understand all of the politics, so you shouldn't assume anything you don't know about or get involved, not even as little as a small conversation about it!
The voting in this video does not have to be political at all, cause this non-serious voting has nothing to do with politics, of course.
If you think people who are political are just harsh for no reason, you're totally wrong!!! They're not trying to combine faith with politics, and even if they did, they wouldn't make it all corrupted and lopsided! That's what you'd think cause you know nothing or understand at all what's really going on!!! Looks a lot like to me, you support the unfairness that the democrats have sometimes! It's not just the republicans!
To vote for a president at election time, people have to be smart or at least smart enough to vote for the proper person or know who they're voting for and their purpose of who they're voting for. Voting for popularity and to simply just get someone in history books in the future is a reasonless purpose to vote, during election. There's a democratic, republican, and an either/or side (which is called independent). And if you're not into politics cause you think it's just cruel and harsh, then you don't vote at all and be a non-voter. I'm not too political either, but at least I'm knowledgeable enough to know and understand what I'm doing or who I'm voting for, if I do vote, so that I'll not be someone trying to get somebody in the history books or only vote for popularity! If you completely dislike or hate politics, maybe it's best you don't vote at all in your life.
I get it, you're used to the peaceful life you had while growing up in your Britain hometown, not allowed to have guns or any other weapons, and you probably think everywhere has to be the same way. I understand people need to get along, but sometimes some of us need weapons to defend ourselves from being attacked, in this world. To me, banning guns and other weapons is like banning defenses, so that way, when you need to defend yourself, you'll have no defenses around handy! Oh, but wait a minute, you used guns (regardless of real or fake), yet you're so afraid to use them! Why the heck can't you make up your mind, man?!! You don't love and use guns and other weapons, but are yet so afraid to use them!!! It's either you love and use them without being so afraid of them after being trained in your life how to use them, or if you are so afraid of them, you don't use one at all, not even if it's fake! How about if you're so afraid of using one, you stop using it completely?!! But that doesn't mean you have to be like lots of other people to strongly support banning guns and other weapons!!! Not everyone uses them for violence, some use them for defense or self-defense!!
By the way Richard, I read somewhere online you strongly support Obama Care. I understand health care is important to many people, except there are some people who don't really need one or a doctor, cause they're healthy. But Obama Care should not be a major important one to rely on!! A real and more helpful healthcare is more important than Obama Care!! You obviously don't know what its purposes are, other than health! Trust me, maybe Obama Care matters a lot to you, which I already know I can't change that, but keep in mind sometime to realize it's really not as important as other more important healthcares that exists out there!! All you seem to care about is popularity and nothing necessarily important! Why don't you learn the deep within of info about Obama Care before ever feeling sorry for it?!! Why can't anything matter to you?!!! Don't you ever care about anything like some of us ordinary people in the world might, other than popularity and popular talks and thoughts from so many others?!!! How about you try caring about at least someone in your life who's not popular?!!! They matter too!!!!
You need to wake up and see the real world! Stop being so mentally and verbally weak enough to say "yes" to everyone about everything!! Why don't you learn to say "no" to defend what's right, especially for yourself sometimes! It's not so bad a word to say like you'd assume!
