- Ian Hislop, editor of Private Eye and star of BBC comedy Have I Got News For You, is interviewed by William Turvill of Press Gazette in January 2021 (read the full interview here: pressgazette.co.uk/ian-hislop.... In this clip, Hislop talks about his long-running feud with Good Morning Britain presenter Piers Morgan.
I sat opposite Ian on my way home in the compartment on the train for many years. He was a very unassuming and pleasant man, the polar opposite of Morgan.
So you obviously sat opposite Piers at some point as you are able to make that judgement ??
@@glennmorley5731 i worked with Morgan when he was at News Corp before the Mirror just to clear that up for you.
I hate both of them
@@timmo491 What was he like then.... Any less problematical to what he is now?
@@lewis011bb4 problematical is not a word i would use yo describe Hislop in any way
We need more people like Hislop.
It's so depressing that Piers Morgan gets so many TV shows. It's damning of us as a society how often bad behaviour gets rewarded
Think piers is just there to make the other presenters look good or better at their jobs .
Its not a reflection of we the people, I think he is a darling of the banking cartels. My take on Piers Morgan is this, that even with his so called "friends" he is ready to snip them off, if he is told to do so.
Piers is more entertaining than this little toad
If we’re rewarding his behaviour then we clearly don’t think it’s bad behaviour do we. If the majority of society disagrees with you, maybe start considering that you’re the one who is wrong about someone, instead of this strange superiority complex you have. Have a lovely day.
I'm old enough to remember the bile thrown in Ian Hislops direction when Richard Ingrams chose him as his successor at Private Eye. It mainly came from those who were overlooked, but must have been good training for what was to follow. Private Eye is still fun, and informative. Good on yer Ian !
A fair assessment without resorting to bickering, biting wit and satire will win 🏆 the day everytime..good on yer Ian!
Hislop is a very generous interviewee.
Shame about the interviewer.
He didn't answer the questions
@@Juddersbaby1 I do not agree. Most of the interview of Hislop talking in an interesting way. That is the sign of a good interviewer (as opposed to, say, Jonathan Ross, where he wants to be part of a double-act).
Clints Eastwoods autobiography is called "CLINT" If you tilt your Head it could be the title of Piers morgans.
Witty💯
Well played sir.
You know the one by Stephen Fry?
Whats the definition of "countryside"?
Killing Piers Morgan
@@dsteere2303 Yes. I heard it on the Radio.
Only Stephen fry could have said it so eloquently :)
Nice one 💯
I remember that issue of the Mirror, at the time it was just creepy really. There was no more motivation to Piers Morgan's stalking of Hislop's past than a group of teenagers trying to 'dox' and bully other message board users they interacted with. Those were my thoughts as a younger person at the time. I don't think social media was quite as pervasive as it is now, but the idea that Morgan is simply a vitrified 13 year old brain within a bloated elder body has been my assessment of him, and the level he functions at, for at least as long as that issue. Not sure what everyone else sees to in order to keep him well heeled in life.
His recent attempts at inserting himself into the 'tabloid lore' of H and M Windsor's love life was pretty much one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen journalist or a person do also.
Mechanically speaking, it's just a legacy of the elder Maxwell, isn't it? Gather (or rather generate) as much 'dirt' on your enemy as possible and see them 'driven before you'. Is this not how Epstein perpetuated his ring and functioned within certain circles?
At certain angles Hislop looks a bit like a happy Jeremy Clarkson
What’s the definition of countryside?
Murdering Piers Morgan.
Classic and very very funny !
Stephen Fry just called (on the landline) - he wants his joke back.
I can’t remember who said that. Was it Jeremy Clarkson?
@@jeanmyers1787 Stephen Fry
Not much feedback from the interviewer..... very dull response. Well done Ian Hislop, for keeping the thing lively and entertaining.
Thank goodness for Ian Hislop.
Brilliant great stuff.
Interviewer is an absolute block of wood
Ian happens to be a distant relative of a good Mate of mine, if invited to have a pint with Hislop i would jump at the chance, if the same pint was offered with the poisonous Morgan i would run a mile!
I'd go for a pint with piers, tell him to sit at the table, you go to the bar and piss in his pint
Yep, even Meghan markle refused a second drink
I’m a big fan of Ian’s. He has a razor sharp mind and wit.
@@Sidowse yes. Great. A brexitard who thinks he’s smarter than Ian hislop. Dunning Krueger in a nutshell.
My man rocking MK sockets in the background there. Excellent choice
That's got to be the weirdest observation I have read!
Ian Hislop is awesome.
Ian’s just a great all round guy.
Stephen Fry, playing Uxbridge English Dictionary on ISIHAC: "Countryside: to kill Piers Morgan".
That’s savage!
I'm a bIg fan of The Slop :) He's my hero. Just finished watching every HIGNFY on CZcams and missing him & Paul Merton.
I seem to remember a written article from Morgan about Hislop some years ago, where it was implied that the latter's downfall was coming and basically initiating a countdown to Ian's career being derailed by some shock revelation. To date that hasn't happened, though more recently Piers seems to have mellowed towards his old adversary.
What a great wit.
Goodness the interviewer really made that came alive - NOT.
Always interesting to hear Ian's views - may he never lose the sense of humour.
Yeah terrible, just laugh at the joke
Hislop looks like Jeremy Clarkson's dad.
Hislop speaks more sense, so that’s how you can tell they’re not related.
😂😂😂😂😂👍
I'd enjoy seeing him give Clarkson a good belting... just visually. edit: I mean, physically, over his knee, with a belt.
Note to self. Do not follow this interviewers example of interviewing. Come on man! the first rule of an interview is research and be prepared. No long pauses is a second.
No first rule is to let the interviewee speak which he did. Even if you know nothing about your guest you can still make a good interview if you just let them have their say and explore the topics they raise in interesting ways.
Long pauses could have been down to delay on the connection. Plus the interviewer was showing respect and trying not to talk over his guest, which many more popular and considerably better paid (I am assuming) interviewers often fail to do, making it more about them.
Also don't look dead behind the eyes for the whole duration of the interview
The interviewer seems totally uninterested. Spends more time checking how he looks on the camera without paying much attention.
Ian Hislop is a very good interviewee, so seems a waste
Morgan has surprised me in the last year by holding the Government to account over their COVID response and his criticism of Trump. Sadly he seems to have reverted to type and re-tweets positive comments about himself, which suggests that he isn’t that thick skinned.
Being able to see that things like twump and the UK's covid 'response' are worth criticising is a pretty low bar.
@@telectronix1368 Yes but it was a significant change for Morgan, although he has returned to type!
@@telectronix1368 True, but in fairness, he was the only one doing it on tv in Britain. He obviously hit a nerve as the Tories bottled his show for months.
Love him
Morgan has to be bad , if I agree with Hislop !
ahahah
Ian reminds me of Penfold from danger mouse,
Blimey. I thought the thumb tile pic of Ian was Jeremy Clarkson🤓
To call Piers Morgan a short Richard is an insult to phallus's everywhere.
OK, he's a short Johnson
Hislop fantastic man
He has been absolutely destroying that ‘journalist’ Piers Morgan for 25 years. It’s hilarious. It’s not really a feud, it’s like a fight between Mike Tyson and a pot plant.
Seems everyone has a bone to pick with Piers it seems x’D
What would the Telecockneys say?
1:24 Clive Anderson (and Angus Deayton) also made significant contributions to Piers Morgan's "complete car crash". You can enjoy it here: czcams.com/video/N6TcgfjcOPU/video.html
Whenever I want a laugh I watch Ian v Morgan on hignfy
Q1 How on earth did Morgan ever get a job in the media, let alone as editor?
Q2 How is Morgan not in jail?
A1 - Rich, straight, white privillege
A2 - Rich, straight, white privillege
@@telectronix1368 for A2 - nah. Great set of supporters for the labour govt of the time.
Has the interviewer had a lobotomy
Yeah, yeah...
Nodding profusely
I admire Ian's strength in being able to stand up to vindictive and bullying press attention. But unfortunately there are many other people who Piers Morgan has abused, bullied, smeared and generally treated very badly who don't have that strength, and also don't have the financial capacity to hire decent lawyers to protect themselves. I wonder how many suicides Morgan has caused?
What a humourless, disorganised, charisma void this guy is. Hislop saved the interview.
But we are here to listen to Ian who is being interesting, not to the interviewer. Maybe he chose to just let Ian talk.
If you are remembering the interviewer more the interviewee I would suggest that was not a good interview.
Ian hislop legend he squash billy big spud celebrate who think there clever but Ian catches them with facts they forget
Are you having a stroke?
What ?
I've got punctuation going spare, if you need it...
The interview with JAMES ALEFANTIS is not looking good for you Ian, these last few years....Eh Ian ???
Sounds more like a vendetta by Morgan than a feud. Did Ian never get revenge?
He just let morganna show everyone what a petty p^**k he was! I've found there are two ways to deal with bullies, if they are physical hit then harder the first time, they won't come back and if psychological laugh at their attempts it drives them mad. 😂
Wow, this is how you dont interview someone. talk about unprepared
Yes. A bit like Senator Norm Coleman’s interview with George Galloway! Absolute unmitigated Schadenfreude.
I like Ian, but he really should cut down on the 'you knows'...
I think he knows
Morgan corrupt.Watch Levison 🤬🤬
Probably a quare
But not a bigot like you.
00:17. I detest Piers Morgan, but I'm not sure why he'd throw his marriage break up into the conversation? I have 1-2 friends who are genuinely lovely people but have had marriages fall apart. It doesn't make them terrible people. I'm not sure if its a stick I'd beat anyone with. Seems a rather silly thing to say.
Countryside - the killing of Piers Morgan.
Never gets old.
It's obvious why Morgan is sometimes called Marmite. Often an opinionated prat, yet one who held the government to account.
Ian is Teflon compared to that self publisist Morgan , what a plonker,,,!!!!
Awful interviewer. Did he know the infamous HIGNFY episode with Piers Morgan? It’s easy to find.
Interesting content. Interviewer is amazingly incompetent.
Yeah, actually Ian confession is very much a part of the CofE
These media johnnies are all conceited and full of themselves. Journalism has never been the same since since they discontinued the 'Boys Own' magazine and its emphasis on strong moral fibre and 'playing the game' - alien concepts as far as this crowd is concerned.
Ian Hislop gets flack for being political and having a sense of humor. Neither the left nor right can take the slightest criticism when it comes to humor unfortunately, at least, not whilst old labor lives on within the already failed remains of new labor.
So annoying that shit can rise so high
(Morgan not Hislop!)
That's the gutter press for you .....you know that Ian, Piers is very good at playing that game, because that's what it is. sticks and stones springs to mind ?
Although it was a bit more than sticks and stones and probably crossed into harassment
Peter Cook would turn in his grave over what Hislop has done to PE
He is now what the magazine used to take the piss out of, and so loved by the BBC, which just about sums the little shit up
Interestingly, 2 of your last 3 words are how previous editor Richard Ingrams described him!
I can´t stand either of them.
You mean Piers and Morgan?
Both up their own backsides!
HIGNFY has been pathetically left woke for years, lacks any balance or backbone
*Piers Morgan for PM!*
Piers Moron for PM..
No. Just no
His initials is as far as he will get
@@robbiekop7 *How rude!*
P.M. .... Post Mortem ???
Piers is an awful misogynist.
@now it is ten past three It's mostly women. He respects men immensely.
@now it is ten past three Yes he does. Lol please stop talking sh. 'women are more sensitive to comments'. We're more aware of certain, misogynistic comments because of what we experience. Men are extremely sensitive people but we only see that in relationships because outside of relationships our entire society is built around not offending or hurting men. A man saying one thing about another man means nothing. That's an equal situation.
