Richard Armitage discusses Spooks season 9. The 9th series began September 20, 2010 and ended on November 8, 2010 on BBC One in the UK. Brilliant interview! A facebook friend posted a link to this interview on tv.com that was blocked outside the UK so I uploaded it here. I also added closed captioning.
Thanks to everyone who posted links so more people can find this video!
P.S. Please check out my homemade fanvids if you haven't already! :) - Zábava
My best friend cannot understood why I so much appreciate this actor, than I let her watch his interviews, where he talks about his characters with so much beautiful words, and he really knows what he wants to say. This is one really smart man, who loves his work, respects his fans...of course, he is attractive, but he has stunning personality. I think thats the main reason why he is loved by so many fans. Go RA!
Richard Armitage must be one of the most gorgeous men I have seen (and heard!) in my life. I am glad that we will soon be able to see him on the big screen, because my heart is full of compassion with the millions of people on the planet who don't know him yet. ;-)
I'm sitting here just gaping at this hypnotically handsome man. Lol. Had to replay the video many times to actually listen to what he's saying.
That voice, oh, that voice!!!! I love him so much. He's so handsome and serious looking, and then he smiles and it's like heaven! I love him in North and South so much :)
"I have never been so entranced by an actor"
The same here. :-) And I live on the other side of the Atlantic. There are plenty of very handsome actors. I usually don't care about them. But it is different with Richard Armitage. His sceen presence, voice and charisma are just mesmerizing.
He is so intoxicating. I just cannot get over he marvelous he is.
RICHARD ARMITAGE FOR JAMES BOND
Thanks for this. It's a lovely interview. Richard always talks so thoughtfully and intelligently about his work and his characters - such a pleasure to watch. Thanks again.
His appeal is beyond looks. Of course he does look great, especiall in this interview, but more than that, he has got a certain magnetism that is hard to describe. It has to do with screen charisma, with his voice and his ability to convey emotions. You just can't turn your eyes off of him.
This is one of my favorite interviews. He is so attractive and at the same time so cute. Nice and calm and all about love... I hope someone finally will give him a role like that. Please!
Daaaamn, the man is not only incredibly charming, but also he makes so much sense when he speaks that it's a revelation to watch him...
i started watching Spooks because of Rupert Penry Jones, but am now flying through the seasons to get to the Lucas' seasons. Love this show, but it's really sad to see some of the main characters disappear or die out... i cried like a baby when Danny died. Possibly because he was the last of the originals and unlike Tom and Zoe, he dies. :( Fantastic show though, and Richard is an amazing actor.
I've never heard of him and than I saw North and South. He is lovely.
Thanks so much Bccnee, just a delightful interview. Lots of insight into how he sees and plays Lucas and I can never get enough of that shy smile.
It is wonderful that there are so many folks sure everyone has access to his interviews.
Thank you for posting this excellent interview. Richard is so articulate and its clear how much thought he puts into his characters.
And yes, I would love to see him do something about love.
Sigh.
All Love

Thank you bccmee - miss you in the zone. It is a great interview. We saw this shot months ago. He looks great and I love all the questions. The last question was so sweet the way he answered it. Penny
Can't never get enough of him ♥
Thank you :D
Lord Jesus, we are so lonely. It is so easy to live in fantasy land where there are no disappointments & brokenness. it is so easy to cast our eyes on this lovely man. Forgive us, Lord. Keep us living in the present. Give us eyes to see the good things we've missed. May those who are captured by the beauty & talents you so generous gave R.C. be motivated to pray for him. Fame & fortune has eviscerated so many. Keep R.C. Bless, protect & guide him. May he always know that you are near.
Thanks so much for posting this fantastic interview, this is serious stuff!! I love it! Can't wait for Spooks to start!
Thank you so much bccmee for posting this. It's the best interview I've seen him do to promote himeslf and Spooks 9 so far. Lovely. I'd love to see him do a project like that too.
Thank you so much for uploading this.
I love when he has his hair like this lol
Thank you so much for posting this!!! - You really have a heart for non U.K. RA-fans. - A wonderful interview with lots of insight. I hope RA stays for the next series 10 as well, though he is not sure here.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! I'm eagerly awaiting season 9. I hope Lucas isn't killed off this season. He's the reason I watch:)
I love his expression seconds before he says: "I'm really not a violent person" 10:05
@bccmee
I am a native German speaker, and on German television there hasn't been shown much of his work yet (not even the last seasons of "Spooks"). I happened to discover him only recently when I saw "North & South", and his performance and charisma swept me off of my feet. I couldn't believe that this incredible gem of an actor is still kind of "hidden" on British television. That's why I was excited to hear that he was cast in "Captain America" and especially in "The Hobbit". :-)
Thanks for posting! Oh, to know that Spooks has started and I can't find a way yet to see it in the US....I'm very sad. Appreciate the RA vid. Can't wait for him to make it onto the global stage....
He is so lovely!!! Love the voice, the brow and the hands!!
I watch this video every morning now, just need a dose of RA to start my day LOL... Thanks, bccmee!!
Thank you so much! This was the interview we knew about by twitter, right?
It's sunday already, less than 24 hours for Spooks to begin!!!
esta voz, é pra fazer qualquer uma esquecer de seus problemas... Lindo, talentoso, educado, bonito, inteligente, enfim... Um Gentleman.
BTW- Netflix has all ten seasons of Spooks available on DVD rental. It is not expensive, and its cool to be able to see episodes more than once.
You are so right :) After watching the Hobbit i started searching for more works by RA, and have already watched "The Impressionists" BBC series. I hope in the future we could see more of RA works on the big screen.
THANK YOU!
Omg the episode when all his past is out is so moving if he dies it will be so sad he acted that so amazin I think he is just utterly drilliant and should be in Spooks for ever as it would not be the same with out him. X
Adorable. Thanks bccmee.
Why you are so handsome? I can’t move my eyes from you....🥰🥰🥰. May GOD bless you dear💓💓💓. Real GENTLEMAN 💗
ААААА!Какой же он зая!Полный ЧГ!
любовь всей моей жизни!
какие же у него глаза.....какой голос.....все,забирайте клиента....
It's really special when you hear he would rather do something about love rather than violence and in this world where most people want to be really KNOWN and have their whole life printed on a magazine or on the internet, its lovely that he keeps his personal life PERSONAL and I'm very glad he done all the roles he has done and I'm so excited to see him in the Hobbit! The role of Thorin suits him so well! he will be amazing and hopefully this may open another door for him! God bless him.
I agree. Ben's death by Connie shook me and I was sick to my stomach. The last 20 minutes of that episode took me about 2 hours to watch because it was so intense, and I couldn't watch it all at once.
Thanks bccmee - my favourite interview for S9 I think. Sigh*****
Excellent interview! It would be so lovely to see him in something "all about love". But he'd better get the girl this time!!
I watch all your season
still haven't seen all of season 10... he's so kool though, i want to meet him one day
Richard's not in series 10/Spooks.
боги-боги, какой ты был прекрасный тогда, Ричард.
I saw Richard in a non-violent role for a daytime bbc mini-series earlier this year - can't remember what it was called and even though he showed his versatility I can't but think of him as anything other than the archetypical British spy - even his role in Robin Hood didn't quite cut it for me. I can't believe the producers of the James Bond franchise haven't earmarked Richard - they need to do it before he gets too old to be considered for the part - he's tailor made for it.
Favorite episode...hard to watch, especially during the suicide scene and the last few minutes where he and he Darshavin are facing off...but so worth it because of the acting prowess. Nearly a cathartic experience, but one always senses that worse is on the horizon....
The irony of it though is that the debacle which was the Season 9 finale arguably did "kill" the series. There was only one more Season, which only had 6 Episodes, and some people refused to watch it because they were so disapponted by what was done to Lucas' character in the end.
@reverie2bls Me, too ...I love him...
@bccmee typo! i mean ever, not never -_-
you're welcome :)
@MCForty Good shout out! Richard Armitage for James Bond after Daniel Craig though cause Danial is still an amazing Bond!
Many thanks for sharing.
I love his acting and I hope he does a Rom-Com. He;s much better than Hugh Grant
I agree with Richard- Spooks is Intense! He also makes a comment about the way the characters put their lives on the line every day... and the remarks that he doesn't know if thats what goes on at the real MI-5 or not... Well Richard I have news for you...
Yes; that is what goes on... and I will tell why I say that. There is a film called- "Assets" based on a book written by 2 CIA agents and published in the early 2000's. The book is not fiction, it is a blow-by-blow description of a case they both worked on. There was a Mole in the CIA. The two ladies worked tirelessly for years to figure out who was selling out their Assets to Russia. Over a relatively short period of time in the '80s all their spies, and Russian Officers giving them information were killed. It was obvious a CIA agent with access to the Russian Asset files gave the information to their enemy. It wasn't until the late '90s that the news broke on the U.S. national News. A CIA agent and his wife were arrested and charged with Treason. The agent got life in prison without chance of parole, his wife, a Colombian woman, received five years and was deported to her native country.
The reason I bring it up is that it is a true story of the dangers inherent in their work. And it adds a feel of reality to the MI-5 series if you watch it first. Knowing what they go through, knowing the absolute violence they face when caught, allows you to imagine what it might have been like if the show were about the real exploits of British Spies.
Talk about Chills... yeah you know it!
his answers r smart and impressive
It has been announced. Rhichard Armitage will play the dwarven king "Thorin Oakenshield" in the upcoming movie "The Hobbit"
'I want to do something calm and all about love!'
THE HOBIIITTTT!!! XDD
All about loyalty, trust and friendship! close enough! and more fantasy than violent and its more comedy and more of a family film! But I'm not sure if its on the calm side. More of
ADVENTUROUS AND FUN!
@bccmee I agree! I think he'll act as a good king ;) As for the comment, my pleasure. Simply spreading the great news :)
Delicious man.
кстати,народ,а объясните мне пожалуйста,что он говорит хD
Oh I had no idea Spooks was a show. I thought he was just talking about those spooky times.
That made me laugh so much 😂
A 'spook' is a term for a spy.. primarily because they, 'move around in the shadows, undetected, with stealth'.
@Supremed9
Yep, he's actually gonna come to NZ to film, yeeha!!!!!
I'll miss Ros but her leaving is good for richard's character since he is promoted to head the unit whereas before I thought it was awkward for him to be the "leading man" (other than Harry ofcourse) and also take orders from others
@Supremed9 interesting. I'm happy that he's FINALLY makin it on the big screen... but I'll be sad b/c I like bein' part of the AA and swooning over him privately. lol. After this, EVERYONE'll know who my wallpaper is :)
I love you so much and I wish to meet you
Be still my beating heart!
Jeebus...that's dedication, right there.
Very interesting interview. I'm so happy that spooks is back. 8D And Richard... *sigh*. Excuse me for that but I would eat him alive. His voice, his eyes, his smile... He is simply perfect. A god in my opinion. lol
*dee deep sight* I could listen to him all day... And he's so breathtakingly gorgeous... I'm completely crazy about him -3
I know he's 40 but he's still hot!! Gawd where do men like this exist? I really agree with you people, he looks sexy, but he has that sort of karma, or charisma, that idea that he wants to draw everyone into the conversation... or something... That magnetism...
Good idea a Spooks movie. Something nice and calm and all about Love? Hmm a romantic comedy / film..? Vicar of Dibley the movie?
Thanx 4 posting.
Wow. He says NO to violence and YES to love. He's fantastic. That's quite rare I think. Also after what he said about filming North & South. He's so down to earth, romantic guy who hates to be categorized and who's not ashamed to say he wants to do "something nice and calm, all about love".
А Ричард вообще то вкурсе , что он украл наши сердца?
I wish him NOT to play James Bond - waste his best years for a thing that can be done by someone else. I wish him to play SOMETHING CALM AND ALL ABOUT LOVE !!!
i see this man playing the role of commander James Bond 007 in 10 years.
Sorry,no.
He looks different from when he was Underthesecretary-of-State, and he sounds less American here. Interesting move, career wise.
They didn't do his death well. Not at all. There was supposed to be a shot of a falling man, but that wasn't put in. I think it was one of the worst deaths in the whole series.
he is afraid of drowning and yet he undergoes waterbording ... brave man!
am i the only one who finds it strange that he is talking about his death and hanging himself? xD just sayin
