Upstart crow .. l,m 71 years old and this is the best and most enjoyable show l have ever watched, well done, more please! ( thanks David )
Absolutely agree. More insightful than most books on the bard, whose insight it blurred by idolisation.
Wish there would be a series 4!
It was/is a tad less enjoyable than "The IT Crowd" but that's not much of a criticism! Using the word that Brits love to use, it was BRILLIANT! I hope there's more to come after COVID subsides.
Probably my favourite person on Telly for many, many years!
6:50 talk about men in denial of their baldness.
7:16 cameraman executes a master-level troll
I’d like to know if David has any tricks for memorizing and speaking his lines? His delivery is so rapid-fire, even though he’s speaking characteristically Shakespearean grammar and words.
All of the cast are great, but David typically carries the greatest amount of lines.
I’m enchanted! So glad to see it’s in extended seasons/series! Hopefully we’ll get them all here in the States, sooner rather than later.
You can see he’s reading his lines on longer passages.
LOVE this show...just became available on my streaming aps in America and I am obsessed! Funny and so clever!
Love Upstart Crow! Thanks to my PBS station.
Funniest use of language and words ever! His voice very Richard Burton like too. Bravo Brits for so many good comedies!
I'm hoping for a 4th season, I really want to see more platinum blond himbo Marlowe.
in the UK they make brilliant comedies about Shakespeare. in America we make movies about spider man
Definitely studied English at Cambridge.
He now earns it and shares it. 👍
He studied History. Robert Webb studied English.
He was rejected from Oxford the first time he applied and reapplied to Cambridge the year after
Love Mitchell. Brilliant man and comedian and writer. Please ask the BUILD interviewer not to laugh in the microphone. Drop it while you laugh and lift it when you speak.
Love David Mitchell and “Upstart Crow “! A Comedy in Shakespeare’s time, was a play that has a happy ending… not necessarily a funny, as we understand funny, play. Taught university level English literature, and lots of Shakespeare. Ben Elton is brilliant, and very brave, to take on Shakespeare! So clever, so fresh! Hoping more people will read WS plays, etc.
Then, no more of this? I'm devastated.....
He didn't answer the question about more soapbox videos :(
yes ben elton has hit on a good show here,i love mitchell in anything,he reminds me evermore of christopher hitchens whom i also deem brilliant
Mitchell has to be very tolerant in this interview. What a nice chap he is.
Is the 'catfishing' episode the one with Lord Egeus and the donkey's head?
Too bad there has yet to be a series four.
Catfish live in the mud, all stealthy like
Stop the host giggling...
Othello for me. Imago and dom Cummings comes to mind. Barb
Is that guy on helium?
'that's mine, isn't it'?
The interviewer made me realise just how many times the letter S is used in the English language.
Ben Nevis?
Host needs to stop laughing at absolutely everything. Yes David Mitchell is funny but not every one of his sentences.
archaic language ......... 1970's
No offence to the host, but he doesn't need to laugh at everything. Makes for a very grating interview.
David Mitchell - great. Giggling, simpering, fool interviewer - yeeugh.
Is the presenter nervous or stastruck? Because I have never heard so much fake laughinh from the interviewer.
The one character that seriously grates is the actor who admitted to trying to channel Ricky Gervais. He should never had brought that up because no you can't help noticing it and cringing at the attempt.
If he had been in just one scene it might be kind of funny as a parody of Ricky Gervais. I took for granted the whole joke was that it was making fun of Ricky Gervais. But that works maybe once. Then by the next scene you're wanting to move on to a new joke. It's too much even for a full episode, let alone a long term thing (!!)
that is NOT what catfishing is
My dictionary says, Catfishing is the process of luring someone into a relationship by means of a fictional online persona.
Oh yes it is
Always a bit embarrassing when the guest is very obviously a lot smarter than the host =/
And had a terminally annoying laugh
re women’s rights. look up Hywel Dda (Good Hywel), a king in early Welsh history where women could inherit their father’s estate, could divorce their husbands and own their own property etc. Interesting.
This is the best England has for a 'host'? This is cringe-worthy. Poor David having to do this spot to plug his hilarious series.
Please don't talk about your misuse of words around David especially one that is obviously homo-based. He isn't a homosexual, practically none of us are that enjoy the show so don't bring your lifestyle into it.
Nope. Can't handle the host. Way to camp
