What most people don't know is how dedicated to his friends Robin was. He paid ALL Christopher Reeve's medical bills. And his last phone call was to Billy Connolly to say "goodbye". If you believe in heaven, after all the laughter and joy Robin brought to the world, I'm sure Robin is there.
Too clever for his own good and desperately misunderstood. It started with Mork and Mindy and ended with it too.This world was never meant for one as beautiful as him 😢😮
465marco wtf. You must be some happy guy, looking down on people only because you don’t share their humor sense. And yet, up to certain point I have to agree with you; your brain seems to be both: a fart and a joke.
Yeh he was a comedy genius ,amazingly talented at improv and very quick witted ,unfortunately he was bipolar and I think he wore himself out constantly being funny all the time ,as you can see in this interview hes very rarely being himself I actually find him sad to watch sometimes rather than funny
When anyone can subdue Clive Anderson's non-stop patter like Robin Williams did here , then you know you are in the presence of an exalted comedy genius.
I was at the recording for this. Only a fraction of Robin Williams' extraordinary performance made it on air, because he thwarted the cameras, and just - wouldn't - stop. The best live comic performer I've ever seen by a very long way indeed. What an amazing talent.
@Patrick Kincaid how lucky you were to see Robin live, being in the same room as him! It must have been electrifying! Ive loved him since Mork and Mindy times xxxxx
***** Hi ya I was young too! 13 years old! He was adorable in that! Don't we all wish we could have helped Robin, talked to him, listened, understood, helped him, loved him. Trouble is we did all love him, he just didn't know............ I honestly don't think he truly realised, despite it being blatantly obvious by audience reaction when he was on stage/doing interviews, he always seemed surprised by the demonstrations of affection towards him. I also believe that he saw a very bleak dependent future for himself, and simply could not bare the idea of not being to do what he does best - make people laugh. I truly believe in his depressed state he could not bare the thought of his wife and family ending up his carers............................
hi Patrick. thanks for the comment. I was there also and was gonna say the same thing. I think he was on for 30 mins or so? When I watched it on tv the next week I realised they'd edited a lot out to make it fit into the show ! I also recall we weren't told who the guests were. ANyone remember who the other 2 were ?
@@melita65 - We will never know, sadly...but I've heard similar suggestions before. All that's certain is that he was suffering from Lewey Body Dementia, which can easily affect a person's thoughts and emotions. For someone as already energetic as Robin, his disease probably accelerated his mind and heart beyond his own control.
The irony the funniest man in the world,was also the most depressed. This man was a legend,the world is less funny without him,RIP Robin Williams. You’re sorely missed!
Meeting Robin Williams was certainly an incredible moment for me and let me share with you that he had the strongest hand shake of any man. He was an extraordinary man with more talent than anyone in history. There will never be another Robin.
My friend you are correct about that handshake of Robins. I too got the chance to meet him in our hometown of San Francisco and he gave me a strong handshake. Amazing you experienced the same.
A comedy genius ,made a joke out of anything ,incredibly quick ,highly intelligent ,brilliant impressionist ,and when he is serious ,so interesting to listen to him. So sad he is gone.
Been fitting anxiety and stress lately and watching Robin Williams relax me and reduces the severity of the issues. Thanks God for this guy. A gift to humanity. RIP
Please don't thank god.. thank robin. He did all the work. . God let him do all this for us, yet gave him a drug problem... and let him die to young. There is no god, and thanking for one thing and ignoring another is wrong.
I have watched "almost" every interview of Robin Williams, . . . one thing that amazes me each time is his amazing sense of humor and energy he had. . . it's impossible for him to sit for more than 5 min . . . he was truly a great comedian. i miss him :(
Clive Anderson is actually criminally underrated, comically but here he couldn't cope with Robin but the best thing was he just went with it, and got in a couple of great quips at the end too. Possibly my fav ever Robin interview this!!
One thing I noticed about Robin Williams was that he lived on the laughs. The crowd energized him. His performance in front of an audience was a sight to behold. He energy got us through some tough times and will be missed.
he tried to please other people and forgot to have the fun himself. I read he tried to make his mother laugh who was depressed, well some can't take life as it comes with pain
TJAnon15 , ditto! I've barely began, today, to be able to watch him w/O balling, I have cried a bit a few times, my children in the other hand can't quite yet.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face,..
You can see that he put so much energy into every ounce of performance... its no wonder that it sadly, admittedly left him dry. You can tell he felt alive during making other people happy - just sad that he went the way he did and not many people knew or could do anything about it. Just goes to show, when you know what deep unhappiness looks like, all you want to do is put the people around you anywhere but in that place. God bless you Robin, may your soul now find the peace it deserves.
I've suffered from depression and I've a fair idea of what he went thru but it must have been much worse for him because he was famous. He will always be rembered and never forgotten and I personally will have a place in my heart for this wonderful man and the fantastic legacy he left behind him. Rip Robin Williams 🙏
Robin Williams was / is still one of the best comedians there ever was. When he sadly took his own life he left. A lot of people with a big void, he was so funny and he could spin a joke right there on the spot. I will miss him greatly and I have thought of him lots of times over the years, i will undoubtably think of him in the years to com. I hope you are Resting In Peace Robin, lord knows we could do with some of your wit.
Sadly he did have an off switch called lewy bodies dementia. The world needs you Mr.Williams but you have done your part to make life more tolerable. Rest in peace.
This is the first footage of Robin Williams that I've watched since his death. For 5 years, I just haven't been able to bring myself to watch the things of his that I used to enjoy. I wish we could have done something to make you stay, Robin. I wish someone could have eased your pain, like you did ours;
It wasn't a matter of easing his pain. He had Lewy Body Dementia misdiagnosed in the media (not sure about his actual doctors) as Parkinsons. He left on his own terms which was way better than any other result from that illness.
It took someone like the late great Robin Williams, to actually not allow Clive Anderson to hardly get a word in, which was some achievement. r.i.p. Robin (Sadly Missed)
Recently I lost a friend to a similar tragedy. I ran across this and it afforded a moment of thoughtful grace at having known my friend and the grace of laughter. It left me with a big smile...
This what I loved about Robin he changes tact so god damn fast its awesome, the interviewer hasn't got a chance in hell of keeping up with him. The world is not the same anymore without Robin , he just made people smile and laugh , just the name Robin Williams made people smile and l for one miss him . Godspeed Robin
I actually did have the opportunity of meeting Robin in 1981. We were on a business trip and it was the last night and so we were doing what all over promoted 22-year-olds do we were hitting the clubs and getting loaded. And we were in the comedy club, and he came out Walked right off the stage and into the audience and started going to the table as he chose and making comments and he got to our table and he asked me where I was from and I said Joliet Illinois to which he replied, not quite the end of the world, but you can see it from there. To this day and I am 66 years old. There is not a time when anyone in our family is asked where we’re from that we don’t reply Joliet Illinois not quite the end of the world but you can see it from there. It was one of the best nights of my life. it broke my heart when he died. It was just a year after I lost my dad and at that point I don’t think I ever felt so alone.
God i love Robin! Its a really tearjerker to see this and knowing that he is gone. Brilliant entertainer. He is truly a one of a kind. RIP Mr Williams.
I've wondered what Robin Williams was doing in a regular conversation with people who have. to. ponder. ev-e-ry. thought. and... think... slow-ly. before.they... speak, when his mind was racing at Mach 5. It must have been painful for him to wait for other people to stop speaking. The man was an absolute talent, a master at his craft. Imagine how painful it must have been for him to realise that his illness prevented him from operating at that speed of thinking when it had always come so easy to him. RIP Robin Williams
I'd guess that a brain with his capabilties just reduced the energy output for the conversation to the needed amount and let the rest go for another flight :)
HAHAHAHAHAHA i am so happy to have found this...Williams portraying a fly and a bee...what about the slow motion thing... And the stereotypes of New Yorkers...so perfect! Gosh, he is very much missed...So creative, so funny! Extraordinary!
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face,..
That beautiful man had so much going on behind those beautiful eyes. I read something which a Priest had said to an attendee of a funeral for their friend that committed suicide. We should commend and honor the days that they fought rather than focusing on the day that they lost their battle.
Jonathan Carr : my understanding is that it wasnt necessarily depression that was the motive, but that he realized he had a serious illness...the name of which escapes me...but it was a brain disorder which would lead to a progressive degeneration in his faculties. I believe he did a pre-emptive strike on his own terms, rather than slowly dissolve. Dont blame him a bit.
Fantastic. What a great interview. Clive let Robin be Robin and sat back and enjoyed the show that is Robin Williams. What a massive loss but a huge contribution to other peoples happiness. Love RW. X Gone but far from forgotten. Great comedian but an even finer actor.
I love how Clive just couldn't keep up with Robin throughout the entire interview, but then right at the end, throws out the perfect one liner. Robin truly brought it out of people. I wish we could get more.
LOVED this video!! There's SO many he's made and this just made my day. Can anyone keep a straight face around him? NO. I'm with Rich, on this one. My face hurts too, from laughing and grinning SO much!! Robin Williams will always live on forever in our hearts!! He knew how to entertain us and keep us laughing.
Every time I see Robin Williams he makes me smile. I miss him. He is so talented and thinks so fast. Way ahead of his time and highly intelligent. God Bless him.
@ Mark O'Sullivan I first saw this on the above date when I was 13. It was my little friend's 6th birthday that day too. I had been waiting in anticipation for this show on BBC1. This particular episode! And I wasn't disappointed! I had recorded this on my video recorder that time, but due to circumstances beyond my control, the recording (& a lot of my recordings) was given to various charity shops. Boy, was I unhappy about that! But I am soooo happy that at least someone out there decided to put this up. Thank you very much for putting this up, I have been looking for this episode for YEARS on CZcams, hoping that someone, a fan, would've put it on.And at last, it is here! Thanks for sharing this.Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!! :-D
Clive Anderson looks like he doesn't like Robin upstaging him and wants him to stick to just answering his questions. Robin just goes into his thing and its brilliant!
He is still the funniest man on the planet. Everytime I go online I do a search for him. Think I've seen the most of Mr. Williams but once in a while I get to see something new. RIP Dear Captain...
Just like a massive star in our Universe. He burned through his Comedy fuel at a very fast rate and left us way too soon and wanting so much more. But am grateful for all the body of work that's he's left behind. Much of it on CZcams and other video mediums for me and others to enjoy his comedy gifts forever. RIP
Wow 😂 only discovering this Robin video now and it’s the best one yet i’am in tears here. And thing is I used to watch Clive show and more than likely watched this when I a kid, Guarantee I never laughed this much. What a genius Robin was.
Their will never be another actor like this guy. He was always so full of life,loved making people laugh and he was incredibly soft spoken. Smile my boy it's sunrise Robin Williams 1951-2014
Who the fuck (pardon) is Clive Anderson? Maybe a stiff guy with no sense of humor ? During the whole interview he has a carrot in his ass. Oh, or maybe he looks like he has. Pardon. Many many types of humor in this beautiful & complex world, many many different cultures, but he seems to understand & accept only his own. I don't give a fuck about all these people. He had a genius on his show & he didn't understand anything.
@@ioanatiberian6565 Oh shut up. What's the problem, wasn't Clive Anderson fellating RW enough like an American interviewer? Introducing him as the funniest man in the world wasn't enough? RW was a likeable, quick-thinking comic who depended on impersonations and rapid delivery to carry his shallow material.
All the evidence you need to know his comedy and sillyness was not only genius but very much his shield from the sad realities in his life...just amazing..
it's great that we can watch all these interviews and performances on youtube. it's a great legacy of a great man. Rest in peace the internal Robin Williams x
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face,...
WHAT A FN FUNNY GUY, HE CAN CHANGE MY FAIR MOOD IN A MINUTE & MAKE ME HAPPY AGAIN ! I WILL MISS HIM FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART ! R.I.P. ROBIN, YOU MADE US ALL VERY, VERY FANS , HAPPY !!!!!!!
5 years today 💔
Mark O'Sullivan miss that genie
Funny, deep and intelligent. Man what a guy. Thank you for uploading this video, i haven’t laughed that much in a while 😂
He was definitely one of a kind. Genius.

I hope so, because he brought a ton of joy to so many people around him.
I couldn't agree more he was a true gent will be sorely missed. Absolutely loved the man he always had me buckled over with laughter. RIP Robin xoxo
Vampirebear13 He is heaven.
God that breaks my ❤
Robin is making the Angel's laugh.
Robin Williams was way beyond a mere great comedian. He was a once in a century force of nature. Irreplacable and so sorely missed.
Too clever for his own good and desperately misunderstood. It started with Mork and Mindy and ended with it too.This world was never meant for one as beautiful as him 😢😮
This guy was approaching 100% of potential of the human brain.
He sure was, such an insight into human nature, he soaked up others emotions like a sponge, one of the few true empaths of our time 🤗
Rubbish.
And then Lewy body dementia crept into his brain. Of all the brains in the world 😢

Robin was living proof that comedy is an actual art

Never seen a man use the whole stage for an 'interview'.. and never will. Miss this great soul.
Likewise 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Chris Farley interviews can be crazy
Miss him too loved loved loved him one of a kind special talent huge heart.
a good rule of theater is "use the space" robin knew how to use the space

No body could ever match this guy's talent, EVER.
He has left such a big hole in our lives. RIP Robin, we will miss you for ever.
I laughed all the way to the end and now I'm in tears for the great man we lost.
Robin can never be replaced...he was a comedy genius,a man of great love,so so missed
Nobody else could turn something like a fly landing on you into 5 minutes of comedy gold.
Amazing 😂
Been fitting anxiety and stress lately and watching Robin Williams relax me and reduces the severity of the issues. Thanks God for this guy. A gift to humanity. RIP
Same, watched patch Adams last week and hook today . Never gets any easier that he’s gone but his movies bring joy
Same. Really bad Day I need me some Robin laughs
Please don't thank god.. thank robin. He did all the work.
. God let him do all this for us, yet gave him a drug problem... and let him die to young. There is no god, and thanking for one thing and ignoring another is wrong.

Possibly my fav ever Robin interview this!!
Agreed , Clive had great sarcasm and quips
This man never quit for a single second of his life. Just pure comedy 27/8.
27/8?
*No one will EVER replace Robin Williams. he was a unique, brilliant, incredibly brave and hysterical comic.*
Your words EXACTLY mirror my thoughts... I could not have said it better myself.. R.I.P Robin, you are
the best
@Zinogg not anymore :-(
@NinjaRider777R Robin Williams would laugh and laugh and laugh at your attitude. PC police? The man was so full of compassion.
@NinjaRider777R Just interested,which sketches did he drop from his shows towards the end?
@NinjaRider777R What a shame....The PC Thought Police infest every aspect of life nowadays

Took me a minute but now I get it :[
This is very true as my father was that light for me and my family.
Was he a Replicant? Did we see Dekker in the last days?
In that case... He is a supernova.
I miss Robin so much. The world is a sadder place.
Mr Improvisation.Nobody can touch ROBIN,sheer genius.
His brain was so fast that time was ticking too slow for him.
One in a billion Genius!
May he Rest In Peace!
He definitely was the funniest man ever.

FUNNIEST MAN I EVER HEARD, HE HAS TO GO DOWN IN THE HISTORY OF COMEDY, AS THE BEST THATS EVER BEEN.
As long as Monty python exists that's just wrong.
Robin was born without an 'Off' switch...
Billy Crystal said that very early on in their friendship
I think he found it
It was very dark when he switched off and he could not stand it so he kept going on and on and on.
Sadly he did have an off switch called lewy bodies dementia. The world needs you Mr.Williams but you have done your part to make life more tolerable. Rest in peace.
Robin Williams could go on any show and take it over! Such a hilarious guy, a comedy genius!

Robin Williams is the comedy gold standard. So funny.
His mind just goes a million miles an hour. You sort of forget he is being interviewed.
So much talent and humour in one human being is purely amazing. He is missed by many.
This what I loved about Robin he changes tact so god damn fast its awesome, the interviewer hasn't got a chance in hell of keeping up with him. The world is not the same anymore without Robin , he just made people smile and laugh , just the name Robin Williams made people smile and l for one miss him .

We should commend and honor the days that they fought rather than focusing on the day that they lost their battle.
Jonathan Carr: Very profound statement by the priest. Thanks for sharing.
Jonathan Carr well said -- wise words
Sweet
Jonathan Carr : my understanding is that it wasnt necessarily depression that was the motive, but that he realized he had a serious illness...the name of which escapes me...but it was a brain disorder which would lead to a progressive degeneration in his faculties. I believe he did a pre-emptive strike on his own terms, rather than slowly dissolve. Dont blame him a bit.
agree.... why did she not ask her question?
Fantastic. What a great interview. Clive let Robin be Robin and sat back and enjoyed the show that is Robin Williams. What a massive loss but a huge contribution to other peoples happiness. Love RW. X Gone but far from forgotten. Great comedian but an even finer actor.
As most comments have said. What a guy! An absolute genius. Made me cry with laughter. Thank you for the upload.
There will never be another Robin Williams.
As soon as he goes on stage..... instant switch mode turned to Robin Turbo. Master of humour....
I love how Clive just couldn't keep up with Robin throughout the entire interview, but then right at the end, throws out the perfect one liner. Robin truly brought it out of people. I wish we could get more.
LOVED this video!! There's SO many he's made and this just made my day. Can anyone keep a straight face around him? NO. I'm with Rich, on this one. My face hurts too, from laughing and grinning SO much!! Robin Williams will always live on forever in our hearts!! He knew how to entertain us and keep us laughing.
This wonderful human being could not be contained, like a lightning bolt.
This guy was unstoppable . Unique comedic timing. An Inmortal genious.
Robin, you were SO wonderful! I miss you...
Not "I"...we all miss him. We need him in our current situation.
Pussy! I love you!
😥 yes. Will miss him too.
Every time I see Robin Williams he makes me smile. I miss him. He is so talented and thinks so fast. Way ahead of his time and highly intelligent. God Bless him.
@ Mark O'Sullivan I first saw this on the above date when I was 13. It was my little friend's 6th birthday that day too. I had been waiting in anticipation for this show on BBC1. This particular episode! And I wasn't disappointed! I had recorded this on my video recorder that time, but due to circumstances beyond my control, the recording (& a lot of my recordings) was given to various charity shops. Boy, was I unhappy about that! But I am soooo happy that at least someone out there decided to put this up. Thank you very much for putting this up, I have been looking for this episode for YEARS on CZcams, hoping that someone, a fan, would've put it on.And at last, it is here! Thanks for sharing this.Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!! :-D
One of the best in my humble opinion ...
Greetings from the Netherlands.
I'm glad that we had that guy as long as we did. But still miss him terribly. Tears
if ever we are all like him...perhaps, the world would cracked up with an enormous laughter forever
Clive Anderson looks like he doesn't like Robin upstaging him and wants him to stick to just answering his questions. Robin just goes into his thing and its brilliant!
As a host all they have to do is say hello Robin and shut up.
You mean "Hello Wobbin"?
OneAnd OnlyPoop “Wobbin, Wobbin, Wobbin!
"Omg, is Elmer Fudd here?" 😂👏🏻
We have lost a true genius. :/
God forbid the host would try to contain him.
He is still the funniest man on the planet. Everytime I go online I do a search for him. Think I've seen the most of Mr. Williams but once in a while I get to see something new. RIP Dear Captain...
his brain is just working at an unreal rate the way he's able to think of a joke that quick with whatever topic gets brought up
Just like a massive star in our Universe. He burned through his Comedy fuel at a very fast rate and left us way too soon and wanting so much more. But am grateful for all the body of work that's he's left behind. Much of it on CZcams and other video mediums for me and others to enjoy his comedy gifts forever. RIP
Wow 😂 only discovering this Robin video now and it’s the best one yet i’am in tears here. And thing is I used to watch Clive show and more than likely watched this when I a kid, Guarantee I never laughed this much. What a genius Robin was.
This was one of my favorite talk show appearances by Robin Williams! Some of his best comedy!
Their will never be another actor like this guy. He was always so full of life,loved making people laugh and he was incredibly soft spoken.
Smile my boy it's sunrise
Robin Williams
1951-2014
His quickness of mind was something to behold.
My absolute favorite world wide, Robin Williams...😜 Love you Robin...
Thank you for this. R.I.P Robin, you will never be forgotten
Improvisation was his first language.😂
My forever favorite.🥰🙋♀️✨
Miss you, Robin.
No one in the world like you.
I think even Clive Anderson had respect for this great man, the legend, Robin Williams.
MarcusTDM why do you say that? is Clive Anderson's respect hard to be earned? or does he just generally seem to rarely look up to someone?
A bit of both I think. He doesn't seem to have much respect for many people!
Who the fuck (pardon) is Clive Anderson? Maybe a stiff guy with no sense of humor ? During the whole interview he has a carrot in his ass. Oh, or maybe he looks like he has. Pardon. Many many types of humor in this beautiful & complex world, many many different cultures, but he seems to understand & accept only his own. I don't give a fuck about all these people. He had a genius on his show & he didn't understand anything.
@@ioanatiberian6565 Oh shut up. What's the problem, wasn't Clive Anderson fellating RW enough like an American interviewer? Introducing him as the funniest man in the world wasn't enough? RW was a likeable, quick-thinking comic who depended on impersonations and rapid delivery to carry his shallow material.
@@ioanatiberian6565 17:32 minutes in Robin said "work with me motherf**ker" before being talked over.
He is still the funniest man on earth. Brilliant Genius with a beautiful heart.
All the evidence you need to know his comedy and sillyness was not only genius but very much his shield from the sad realities in his life...just amazing..
He was and always be a legend of the highest order
it's great that we can watch all these interviews and performances on youtube. it's a great legacy of a great man. Rest in peace the internal Robin Williams x
Huge celebrity...so down to earth, incredibly funny and quick witted!
RIP ROBIN, I hope that you have found the peace you were searching for...❤
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face,...
Bloody brilliant. One of the best interviews I've ever seen 😂
This is one of the funniest guest show appearances ever!!!
yes I watch this one over and over
He was The Best ! He'd Make You Cry Laughing ! I'll Miss Him, As Will You !
WHAT A FN FUNNY GUY, HE CAN CHANGE MY FAIR MOOD IN A MINUTE & MAKE ME HAPPY AGAIN ! I WILL MISS HIM FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART ! R.I.P. ROBIN, YOU MADE US ALL VERY, VERY FANS , HAPPY !!!!!!!
