What a wonderful comic genius Rob Brydon is. He is very generous with his words and views of others, always lifting us up with his observations, avoiding the cynical as he says. Not enough comedians take this stance, but thank you Mr. Brydon for doing just that because it always makes our day better in your comic company whenever you cross our path. Well done Sarah Ferguson on a terrific interview, which really gave us an insight into the man as well as the comedy genius. ❤👏
Why do we do this ? We've seen america butcher english shows over and over. What lunatic at channel 10 thinks we could do english comedy justice ? Incompetence at the helm. We grew up in a sunny , happy country. English humour reeks of an indellible irony. We don't have that.
What is his normal accent? Is it Welsh? I think those who are Welsh (and often Scottish) and their careers are primarily in other English speaking countries like Australia and the US, they have to work hard to change their seemingly strong accents. Most seem to try to use a Midwestern American accent. When a Catherine Zeta Jones does interviews, she has no trace of a Welsh accent.
Her work has been mainly in Hollywood for a very long time, so that is what you'd expect. Rob Bryden's normal accent - as in this interview - is a standard South Welsh one. He does work hard at accents, because that's his thing. But there's no artifice in his ordinary speaking voice, and that is what you heard here.
Richard Burton, Anthony Hopkins, Michael Sheen, Rob Bryden. Aberafan's finest thespians. All have wonderful acting voices. And a big round of applause for Sarah Ferguson who is such a good interviewer.
The ABC conduct hundreds of interviews with entertainers and media personalities a year. Are you suggesting that for each interview they only employ someone who is of the top echelon of fandom of each interviewee? Would seem to be an astounding waste of resources and taxpayer funds to contract that many interviewers on their payroll for individual interviews, particularly when this interviewer did fine job covering the breadth of Rob's career, asking more than just surface level questions.
Which is precisely what you'd expect them to do as that is their job.. I have known about 'Gavin & Stacey' for quite a while, but have never seen an episode because, so far as I know, it has never been shown in Australia.
When I watch an interview like this I feel embarrassed. I am a kiwi living in UK 35 years….I actually lead the English Concert Orchestra for years….and I did a musical in west end and….loads of London orchestras and international work. When I see the interviewer take the humility of this guy with both hands and instead of disagreeing with him when he self deprecates, she goes along and agrees with him?! She doesn’t get how self deprecating the British are….why am I embarrassed. Is this what I was like when I first lived here? It is funny how kiwis and Aussies tell you how you’ll experience something…”This is going to be fantastic “…😂
In my experience NZers are far more likely to be self deprecating than the aussies.. For example The Flight of the Conchords took the national trait of self deprecation to a new low
It seems the main topic of this segment is that he is able to adopt various accents when he performs. I THINK he is Welsh, but is able to speak English with a convincingly Australian, British, American,etc accent. I thought he grew up speaking English with a natural British accent, but apparently, he did not.
@B Bodziak No, the Welsh are Thee British. Wales was founded by Britons, and England was founded by Anglo Saxons. So Wales is Culturally British, and England are Geographically British. Very big Distinctions between the types of Britishness of the two Nations.
I despise the term Welsh as the British Cymric people of Wales are not foreign to the island of Britain. They are to Britain what the native Americans are to America, and Māori are to New Zealand. The use of British by the English is even more egregious thanks to Britain being named as such based on these people. Long before the English even existed as a People. Why don’t people just explain these distinctions?
Lovely interview with a lovely man As a Welshman I think you'll find most Welsh people like being called Welsh lol. We come from Wales so we're Welsh. What else do you want to call us? English are from England, Scottish from Scotland and overall we're all British.
You make some interesting points about the distinctions between the Welsh & English of which I was unaware, so thank you for that, however completely off-topic in relation to the interview it may be. As an Australian fan of British WILTY I thought the interview was conducted in a way that assisted him to score, much in the way he described himself doing, for the benefit & pleasure of the audience. He is the talent & the interviewer gave him Enough Rope to demonstrate.

What a genuinely, charming fellow.
To truly appreciate Rob Bryden you must watch 10mins of the Australian version of WILTY
im an aussie an i like the uk wilty better rob lee and david work perfectly

@@jaredoliver9347 It's because the aussie version is woeful
@@keithnewman8280 I know it is boring there's no beating the original people like bob mortimer kevin bridges was hilarious greg davies
Great interview. I learned so much about the talented Rob Brydon from that interview because of the interviewer, who did a wonderful job.
His Australian accent IS actually pretty good. It's not perfect, but it's a sight better than most of the shockers you hear.

@@B_Bodziak Yeah, it's Welsh. :0)
@@B_Bodziak yes he has a South Wales accent
A lot of Brits do a perfectly competent aussie accent - it's the septics who can't get it right.

Thank God for the ABC
A great interview from one of the best comic genius's
It's better than my accent, and I'm from Queensland
What a lovely interview. Rob is great
Love this man, always puts me in a great mood watching him 😇
Legend. And great interview questions too.
That was a great interview :)
Love him!
Rob Brydon - class act!
Ahh...gold!~ V/good.
Oh, hehehee - that was very good👍!
Didn't realise Coogan have Brydon his big break. That's gotta hurt.
Where is the name of the interviewer?
Sarah Ferguson, ABC Australia
❤
I wish the ABC had got an interviewer who actually knew Rob's work
She talks about her favourite scene in Gavin and Stacey!
@@CorporateQueen Which she admitted to viewing just before the interview. Suggest her researchers gave it to her to view

@@RyanMaiden89 I agree with you, however most reputable news outlets do significantly more research than the researchers/presenter has done here
Which is precisely what you'd expect them to do as that is their job.. I have known about 'Gavin & Stacey' for quite a while, but have never seen an episode because, so far as I know, it has never been shown in Australia.
RUclips algorithm is fantastic 👏
Yes a lot of people who try to do a Welsh accent, end up sounding Indian.

The interviewer is British. I'm not sure when she moved to Australia.
I don't think you understood the interviewer at all. She did absolutely nothing of the sort.
I do not understand, please explain me

@@B_Bodziak he's talking in his natural accent through this apart from the aussie accent at the beginning (which is South Wales)

Are you feeling OK mate? Because it seems like you might not be OK
Fair comment.. wales means foreigner……. Well done , but too late sadly
