How about a little praise for how Letterman handled these interviews. He knew when he was in the presence of greatness and did a great job with both of these guys.
He never bowed to greatness. That’s his schtick. I remember one show after the band was playing in the intermission he wanted to thank Mick Jagger who was sitting in with the band, and then went straight to the snow without saying anything more about Jagger until later in the show. 😂
Dave didn’t know what to do with Peter O’Toole but who did
he was a mischievous fellow ❤ so much talent so much joy for life HE was one of the greats GOAT til his last breath
0:25 - Walks right past a NO SMOKING sign with a cigarette in his hand on national television. What a legend!
And lighting up several times. Stopping Letterman from talking and his facial reaction is priceless.
That's what makes him a "Legend"? Your assessment comes off imbecilic.
@@andreperrault5393 I know. Talk about chainsmoking 😂
Gauche
Hollywood will never see the likes to these guys again 🙏🏼
francis o'connor absolutely!!! This guy is class with a capital C And an exclamation point!!!
he was irish/english, he seldom worked in Hollywood.
Peter O’Toole made the most amazing entrance ever ! When he rode in on the camel it was magnificent ! What a raconteur he was and brilliant actor as well .
dang, imagine being the other guest coming on later, no way to make a better entrance!
RIP Richard Harris (October 1, 1930 - October 25, 2002), aged 72
And
RIP Peter O'Toole (August 2, 1932 - December 14, 2013), aged 81
You both will be remembered as legends.
Absolutely unique personalities. Both "slightly" :D:D:D eccentric, but just TOP. Too bad we could not put them all in one movie along with Gene Heckman, Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
These two I think are into mischief on the other side...probably more so enjoying themselves with Richard Burton & their other friends! There’s only rest for the body! The Consciousness lives on! Resting in peace is the last thing these fellows would want or be doing! ☘️🍻 “Good night & Joy be with you all,” gentlemen!
@@liamobrian9886Oh what a wonderful sight that would be!! I'd be in 7th heaven! I didn't realise Richad Harris was quite that old comparatively to me ... as I had such a crush on him in my teens! Macarthur Park & Itchykoo Park were my 2 favourite songs of the time ... I hadn't realised how similar they were in their worlds ... & titles ... until now. Great memories ... & I'm nigh on 71 now ... Where did all those years go ..?
This is legit one of the best videos on RUclips
it may legit be the single best
The greatest
He is feckin brilliant
Still the best today
@@james8322 you
O'Toole riding a camel into the studio, dismounting and then giving it a beer is the stuff of legend.
Can be funny when reading a script
Good film 🎥 actors.peter & Richard R.I.P.
@@TheTrouserPuppetsOfficial ôk -
Why I oughta ---- !!
@@TheTrouserPuppetsOfficial and you ?
Aye , now THAT'S a MAN ! ! !
Peter Otoole told his drunk camel story to my dad after the pub 2am in his kitchen - I sat in the corner and knew how special the hour was.
@Irksome Corsaire My father had a bottle of gin and Peter a bottle of irish... Can hear the wood on the stove crackling now... must have been 30 plus years ago.. great memory :-)
@@lizardywizard Damn. That is so cool. How did they know each other, out of curiousity?
@@christianalmli9085 they didn't, we lived at the end of the world and only half a dozen farmers in tiny pub... those both had tales to tell - my dad was a para in ww2 fighting in italy aged 13, that one came out too - how I learnt about his injuries... only time he ever mentioned it... Peter was visiting an old lass who was lady of Outershaw Hall in North Yorkshire, she was probably a wild thing in the 60s in London - mad old bugger I had her as.. up on her roof trying to mend it aged 80... like a real life tom sharpe novel! Great way to grow up... wild!
@@christianalmli9085 George Inn @ Hubberholme... the bar is double the size nowadays... still tiny. Last time I was in there we were burying my dad next door... I visit the grave but not the pub, prefer smoking. Was bloody smoky with those two chain smokers going at it is another bit of my memory.
@@lizardywizard Which pub is it? I'll drop in.
They'd never have guests like this today on a talk show, what a loss. Amazing chemistry, built over the years between Letterman and both gents!
Bc people like these don't exist anymore
@@angiemilitello1542 he
Ya they would, just to give someone something to bitch about
youve let wokeness and diversity ruin hollywood whyd you do that
@@angiemilitello1542 so true, people today are more toned down and kinda boring, they wanna play the game and survive
25 years of o'toole, what a privilege to watch.
Instead of watching a movie , I decided to watch this collection.. Hadn't laugh so hard in a long time!!! These great men are trully larger than life!
that is what made them great actors
I love the reverence with which Richard speaks of his dear friend Peter. It's so endearing.
Same. Also the genuine fondness Peter has for Richard when talking about their shenanigans is adorable.
He may have been a hellraiser but always a perfect gentleman. RIP Peter!
I like to think that somewhere up in heaven Peter O'Toole regularly arrives at cocktail parties aboard a camel with a cigarette and a scotch in hand.
me too
The way I want to go In Valhalla at table 1 with Oden, to arrive at Odens cocktail party to have a single malt scotch nite a pak of Lucky Strikes to see all the sexy dancing girls
Vivid imagination.
That's the only heaven I want to be a part of. A smart cocktail with Peter.
I think that's a safe assumption.
Who needs Netflix or the likes when there are great interviews like this on YT. Thank you for the upload
In the 70's, I had the great good fortune to meet Peter O'toole. He was charming and kind to me, and he kissed my hand. I'll never forgot him. BTW, his eyes are just amazing!
You're so lucky, what a great experience.
Bbn
You're very fortunate; I can imagine those eyes that close. In the 80s I saw him on Bway doing "Pygmalion". I always got a matinee seat in the third row, stage right. It was super! But what the reviewer said, which I'm sure was supposed to be saucy and judgemental, was true. The part I remember was that he walked about the stage often looking into the audience "as if to say 'yes, it is I, Peter O'Toole, looking back at you". 'Twas true and not something for an actor to do, but I kind of liked it. He was the only blonde that I can remember admiring and that all began with him in "Lawrence of Arabia".
Lucky, lucky you! That was one wish I had, but it never came true...thank you for sharing!!
Sir Elton John had me and my husband up on stage on my wedding day. I about died. But I think you win. I would happily murder someone to meet Peter O'toole.
I saw Peter O’toole On Broadway in Pygmalion! I was on the front row and I couldn’t believe I was seeing Peter O’toole live! I’ll never forget it! As always, he was great.
Youre lucky
So awesome! Lucky you! 🍀
I was there too! John Mills and Amanda Plummer were also in the play. I flew from Germany just to see the show.
How he didn't win an Oscar for Lawrence Of Arabia or a Lion In Winter is beyond my imagination. His final win for lifetime achievement was an apology for years of screwing it up. It was not enough.
Or Becket with Richard Burton, one of my personal favourites!
Especially for Lion in Winter
@@AndreaKollo agree
Plus he was in his final years. He was such an immense talent, the Academy knew it, and they didnt like him and kept him away from receiving the Oscar for decades.
Im surprised he didnt tell them to shove it.
@@robfmas it’s all big bs game. Whatever actor wins, $ goes to people, not the actor, associated with the film. But he had a great professional attitude!
These guys were story teller's supreme. RIP to two legendary actors.
Also supreme story getters.
Peter O'Toole saw you at Dobson's 2001 or 2002 loved riding in taxi cab down to seaport village we were drunk had fun at Westgate you were great with your crazy assegai of Zulu movie prefer night of the generals and ruling class love Lara g . VC FM DSO FM Iron cross of germany

@@LOLERXP qq
You can tell that Letterman loves all the stories as much as the audience.
I wonder if it was the same audience over the years so they could appreciate like us now how the same 3 stories became more and more detailed everytime Peter or Richard retold them as the years went by? It's a shame Dave didn't want to dig deeper and drag out more of their escapades.
I heard Richard Harris checked himself in the Savoy Hotel in London before he got seriously ill. They wheeled him through the lobby to hospital and whilst doing so, he found the strength of lifting his upper body and shouted at the other guests, "if was the food, it was the food". He sadly never left the hospital again.
He was something else.
No clue what that means ... sounds like the ramblings of an alcoholic 🤦♂️
@@nagolhayze9366 he was so ill and weak at that point from cancer he would have looked terrible. when he was leaving the hotel he was living at for the last time, he made a spectacle of himself to give everyone a performance, "It was the food! It was the food!" he was one of those types that felt comfortable and needed to spontaneously perform and create a display when given the opportunity
@@selcotsimeht Thank you for your reply.
This all seems even more tragic after reading this, and deeply sad that he constantly felt that he had to put on some kind of show or performance to please others, when he simple should have been himself, for himself.
Such a sad endgame, feeling compelled to play the fool ... instead of the man.
@@nagolhayze9366 No problem! You are right. And that is why there is a good reason they called him and a few others hellraisers. Ultimately most of their lives outside acting were misbehaving, drinking and womanizing.
There's another story he had in hospital, long before he actually died, but was in very bad health. They called in a Priest for him to confess in case his condition worsened, he joked at the priest and said he surely would not confess, because if he confessed all of his sins, he said to the Priest, you'd surely rip your collar off now and leave the church..
These two are treasures
We need this level of man again
@Anne Woodward - Just because the doctor slapped your mother when he saw you emerge does not mean that every man henceforth was the devil, Annie.
@talorcmacallan4268 - You may not be a great actor, but please do tell a great tale of the likes that that pair could muster.
I have a few wild stories of my own and a MILLION ones my older pals shared with me (some I recorded and posted online).
I will pray for America. I will pray for Britain. Sadiq Khan is the caliph of Britain and should be arrested and tried and jailed. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Peter O'Toole smoking the strongest dark tobacco from France, "Gitanes", handling the interview with Scotch perfectly well is something you will never see ever again. Obviously.
Used to be my brand till the health freaks banned it from our stores
Gauloises is the strongest with Turkish tobacco & no filter. I used to smoke both but graduated to Gauloises from Gitane.
@D Legionnaire Gitane is indeed what we now call Roma , and iirc the term "GYPsy" is derived from eGYPt , coz that's where the medieval English thought that that was where they came from :o)
Gauloises not Gitanes.
Dreadful smokes! I switched to Swisher Sweets...
The definition of class, the highest standard of gentlemen, and one of the most amazing examples of a true, classic method actor. Lived a life full of achievement and adventure, and did it all on his own terms without caring about others opinion of him.
WRONG! O'Toole was, by no stretch of the imagination a "Method" actor. He was classically trained in the British theatre model, with never a thought of "character motivation", nor to the exclusive emphasis on verisimilitude, both of which "features" dominate that "school" of acting referred to by the name "Method". The Method was popularized in America, after its "birth" in Russia, out of the work of the director, Stanislavski.
@@emmettwalz Fair point.
Well said
@@emmettwalz
Harris was though
He started out with that technique
Not sure if he stayed with it
Class is being shameless about your addictions, is it?
You can tell Dave really enjoys talking to these two geniuses. I’ve been laughing my head off watching this!! So funny.
Dave was a low key alcoholic so I guess he loves to know how far real hardcore alcoholics can go. I guess he also wanted to compare his antics to theirs.

Copious pints of Guinness with whiskey chasers and O'Toole and Harris could keep you hilariously entertained for hours 😁. RIP both of them. Amazing actors.
Peter O'Toole. Chain smoking /drunk on his ass and still a major -- major CLASS ACT. Legend is too small a word to describe it. Thanks again Don
Yes - Pure class.xx
@@eileenmchale3140 re r
Imagine, being in a London Pub, with these two , listening to their stories and staring in Peter o'toole 's beautiful eyes.....♥️♥️♥️
I could listen to Richard Harris all night. Just priceless.
Letterman is an exceptional interviewer. It is often overlooked, but it is so true, and so startlingly apparent when compared to the current stable of late night hosts. It is a lost art...
When is it overlooked?
@@dmann1115 if you compare the view count of Letterman interviews and videos with the view counts of Fallon and Kimmel, it is clear what is being consumed at a higher rate and volume
True, - especially when he interviewed O'Tool, who was always strangely 'disconnected' and 'startled' looking.
Yes. Especially after Johnny Carson retired, I pretty much only watched Dave. Now I watch none of them.
@@timothyoneil5447 Agreed + Kimmel is a sycophant and that Lilly Singh is bilge.
Peter O'Toole was the most charming, utterly charming!, man I've ever had the privilege of watching, both in serious acting roles and in his lovely interviews! Wow. Letterman "O'Letterman?" lays back and interviews him -- maybe "talks with him" is the better way of putting it -- beautifully!
This is so refreshing to watch. I miss seeing these 2 distinguished gentlemen
all the wonderful things people in the comments say about Peter O'Toole and Richard Harris are true. From hilarious, to gentlemanly, to stylish, to talented and to the moon...they are all true. let me please add this one bit....when times are hard for my part, watching these gentleman talk makes life a little better and what more can you say about life long career entertainers than that they make you forget any problems and just lose yourself in their wit and wisdom
Richard Harris is such fun. Sounds like he lived a colourful life . What a storyteller. He's rear breed. Fantastic man. Not many characters out there like him anymore.
I have just watched this, and noted earlier that I met Richard Harris when I was 12 at Sam Goody Records in Times Square. He was late to sign his albums, but finally appeared, and was smiling and nice to all who had waited. People had all guessed why he was late. I loved that strangely written song. A memory from a half a century ago. Wow.
@@janicefreedman8173 what a great memory!
Nobody saw "Wrestling Ernest Hemingway," But Richard Harris was amazing in this picture. As a matter of fact it's probably one of the best pictures ever made, in fact it's my favorite. There's one scene in which Richard Harris goes through about five different perfect emotions in 70 seconds. It's incredible
😮0😊😅
Peter O'Toole was a great story teller I must say.
Seems like he was a real gent as well.
RIP
Richard is a good sport for being so open about himself in these interviews. Love these guys 😊
Me too
He’s so cool
@@ruly8153 I also find his laugh contagious
@@ruly8153 agreed lol👍
I love Richard Harris' giggle.
On one show Richard Harris was asked how long he's like to live? His answer was typical of these Irish rogues. 'I'd like to live to be ninety and then get shot by a jealous husband!' All these guys, Burton included were just so full of life and good humor, things which don't exist in celebrities anymore.
It’s nothing to do with actors
It’s that generation of people really....
1:17:16
It’s like O’Toole vividly remembered everything but had to quickly scrub it for the television audience. Brilliant thanks.
It's like your favorite Uncles that chose to never get married that comes over for a visit during the Holidays and makes you laugh with their stories, magic tricks, and wry sense of humor. The best! RIP.
Peter is getting older but his memory is still sharp as a tack. He can still remember the names and places as if they happened yesterday. Brilliant man.
So attractive back then.
O'Toole and Harris,MAGNIFICENT.
Will Lee...Fantastic job of singing that tribute to Richard Harris. You can feel the emotion. The hardest part of growing old is watching those who you grew up with, leave us.
What a beautiful observation.
Indeed!
Well dieing is kind of hard too.
Surely must be, but why not celebrate those times (cause there’re still with you & damn ya if you don’t act accordingly right?!) haha Cheers
So very true..
I was unexpectedly moved at this compilation, and by your desire to make it, and at the passage of time, and the fondness developed by all three men. Bravo, and thank you, sir.
"So we bought the bar..." - funniest punchline I've heard in a long time!
The pub is still there in Dawson Street Dublin.
We'll never see the likes of these two talented, funny and classy men ever again. 😢
Thank you Don.
In these uncertain and shaky times, I've just spent two hours lost in these
wonderful stories from two men, the likes whom we'll never see again....
It's wild to see how O'Toole, Harris, AND Dave age through the years. Thank you for the compilation!
At least one is still with us. :(
I honestly can't write enough good things about Peter O'toole. He could fill the Albert Hall just telling true funny stories about him and Richard Harris when they were drunk. Lol
I would've emptied my bank account just to see him tell those stories in a pub, let alone the royal albert hall
It was a different generation. Bless them both.
Tall, thin, handsome, articulate, funny, sweet, humble, sensitive, European, Irish,and a Yankees fan. 💓
Although I used to think nobody else could ever play the two main characters of The Man Who Would be King other than Sean Connery and Michael Caine , I now realize Peter O'Toole and Richard Harris could have played that duo .
Excellent job on the MacArthur Park song . Thank you for this uplifting and truly entertaining compilation
You are spot on. Those roles were lost and wasted on the Scotsman and Englishman. It had the potencial for a great movie and not the lost opportunity it ultimately was.O`Toole and Harris would have delivered.
Peter O'toole, Richard Harris, Omar Sharif, Alec Guinness, Sir John Gielgud, James Mason. Richard Burton...... those were the times, when Quality drama, (stage and movies), entertained us..... they don't come like this anymore...... just Millennials garbage in present day...🙂🙂.... thanks for uploading...♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸
And not forgetting Oliver Reed...he is something else. Just love these classic gentlemen
WHAT A LEGEND. ARRIVING ON CAMELBACK!! That's making an entrance. CLASS!!
I remember watching that show and love both of these actors. The days of The Gentleman with manners is gone.
"It distresses us to return work which is not perfect"..so I'm having that on my tombstone
I shall also !
I walked passed Sycamore Cleaners, yesterday, it is now a very grand Georgian house (still got the flagpole), with the usual "Russian Mafia" 4x4s outside :(
Harris died in 2002 and O'toole died in 2013. I miss these two actors and their stories. They were both Camelots to me. Class acts,both. R.I.P.
ME ALSO. MET UP WITH IRISH IN CYPRUS OF ALL PLACES. SO THEY ARE TELLING ME RICHARD HARRIS WAS THEIR NEIGHBOUR. HE WENT OFF ON ONE ABOUT MY NAN FROM TIME TO TIME! AS I SAY, FEARSOME WOMAN BUT SEEMINGLY HE LOVED THE BONES OF HER. BRAWLING HOOLIGAN AS SHE CALLED HIM ... TYKE WAS ANOTHER WORD. NO IDEA ABOUT TYKES.
I love that he looks at David Letterman as if Dave is asking crazy questions. Sublime.
I love Peter O’Toole! I so love to listen to his wit & his wonderful life stories! A Super & a most remarkable professional actor! ⭐️♥️🙌🏼
Richard Harris, what a storyteller and lovely man!
I love how O’Toole gets such big applause when he comes out. Most of America loved this man. I hope he knew that.
That was wonderful. I met Richard Harris at a long gone record store, Sam Goody, in Times Square when I was 13. He was there to sign his hit record. He was very late, but showed up eventually. He asked me who I wanted to sign the album for. I told him, Tiger, and he asked who that was. I told him it was a cat that wandered into my backyard and had kittens in our shed. He looked at me for a moment, and asked if I really wanted a record signed for my cat. I smiled, and said yes. He signed, "To Tiger, from Richard Harris." And walked away shaking his head. I have not idea why I told him to write that. I was very nervous meeting him.
Lucky you, I would love to have met this man!!
Watching Peter O'Toole being interviewed can go one if two ways; he's either very entertaining or he's mumbling and talking in circles.
Both are good because you just know he's hammered.
Peter’s voice was mesmerising…..
OToole was the most beautiful man I had ever seen when he played Lawrence.....seriously, breath takingly beautiful
He had the most striking blue eyes. 😍
You must be 16...lol
@@natevm7888you must be gay
My sister thought he was handsome and loved him. Great actor, but not handsome to me. He was funny as hell though.
Back in the late 70s, I worked in Hampstead, north London and I often met him on my way to work. We stopped and chatted many times. Really nice man.
"I have a talent for disobedience" - what a lovely understatement. I've been there myself. So do miss him.
Who?
Ha Ha, yes but disobedience meant self-destruction in his case.

Imagine going for a drink with Peter, I could sit all night and listen to his stories.
I'd rather listen to Richard Harris😘💕🎭🙏🏻
@@susancarolan153 That explain so much.
I love how Peter giggles at times, so endearing.
we just don't get actors like this anymore, such great storytellers and so human
Im sure we do, but with todays social/political climate, the media would use these stories to their advantage by twisting them. Possibly getting these individuals canceled. Unfortunate times we live in.
@@josh05683
Stop whinging about cancel culture. Besides, Harris and o toole were abusive towards their wives and most of these stories are made up. So it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.
Richard Harris a proper man,s man good ol' boy R.I.P Richard.🍻🍺🥃 and what a great friend in Peter,R.I.P🥂
RUclips is such a great format for this perfection.... Amazing👍🏻
You are being missed a lot, Mr O 'Toole !
OK so tell us all why you miss him
Epic presentation, thank you. My all time favorite is Peter's entrance on the camel. His noble transport was thirsty. Peter and Richard were marvelous at telling stories, as was Omar Sharif. Miss them, men like them just don't exist anymore.
Peter O’Toole’s epitaph is “Good night and Joy be with you all” ☘️♥️
Thank you for sharing their joy with us! This was as much fun as these 2 memorable legends were/are.
Thank you for this wonderful video! I laughed with you all! ☘️♥️ 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🌹🌿🌹🌿
I first knew about Richard Harris as Dumbledore years ago and just recently, I started binge watching all these old interviews of him sharing all these outrageous and funny stories. I didn't know how entertaining he was! Now, there are moments when I go "Oh, I forgot he was Dumbledore!". I just can't put those two together for some reason. Is it just me?
hes just a great actor
he's great in "a man called horse".
@@johnworf love it great film
"If you think I'm drunk ma'am you better wait till O'Toole makes his entrance!" That must've cracked the whole audience up lol. Also Peter O'Toole's posture is something extraordinary, makes him look robotic.
I literally lmao at that story. Great retelling!
'And he, still in his kimono, me in my pyjamas, on horseback, hunting hare' 😂 God, these were the days.
I have had a personal reunion, a friendship renewal, with a dear old friend. Our get-togethers are at some wonderful old pubs every Saturday-noon of the month. We have both watched this collection. I view a bit of it every Saturdaymorning before I'm driven to the clubs to spice the mood. What incredible stories! What enjoyment! Cheers!
My best friend Wayne Knipe passed away suddenly in his sleep Friday night 8/11/23. I will always treasure him and these clips that we loved.

🌌 So sorry to read of your
personal loss, Richard. 🌠
💗 Bless you. 💞
I'd give anything to have a drink at a pub with these two guys at the same time...
But unfortunately that can't happen so we have these amazing stories here on RUclips. Thanks for the laughter guys.
I think Peter lived every minute loaded. Letterman got the best out of both of them along with many of his guests, Great host!
It's so therapeutic to watch the two narrate... It's like watching someone become life once given the opportunity.
'Don't wish to waste time looking at the wrong wrist'. LOL!!! 😂😂😂
Touching tribute at the end to Harris, highlighting also musicianship, which the orchestra always made look effortless, despite it not being so at all.
Smile all the way through this, thanks Don.
I am convinced that Peter and Richard are domiciled in Heaven and take center stage every night - even God appreciates a good laugh and I believe that their stories have them rolling in the aisles - we wish they were still around for their like can never be reproduced - thankfully to U-Tube we have these invaluable pieces that depict the art of story telling that only O'Toole and Harris could master. I am an Anglo Irish gal myself and believe me no-one can tell a story like the Irish. They were grand!!!
The Irish have a great and historical tradition of story telling as history and formal entertainment, witnessed here in spades.
Holy cow, the great raconteurs! Going to save this for Sunday afternoon. What a treat, thank you sir.
Cheers for posting this! It’s a real treat!
It is so wonderful just to listen to these legends talk. Can you imagine Peter O’Toole on Jimmy Fallon? Fallon wouldn’t know what to do with him-he’s so eccentric and charming.
Why does Fallon get so much hate? He has a tenancy to interrupt sometimes but, he's one of the only Talk Show hosts who, gets excited to see his guests. Like, a big kid!
Patrick Cerra He’s a terrible conversationalist. Unsophisticated. He’s all about silly songs and human pet tricks.
@@patrickcerra5356 like a fake idiotic big brainless kid yes
i mean letterman didnt either, crap interviewer
@@kiomn But at least Letterman could hold an adult conversation. Fallon’s conversation skills are weak, so he uses sketch comedy as his security blanket.
Peter OToole is so great. And he is so obviously hammered. It's sad, genius with addictions. Bless him.
Thanks so much for the lovely tribute to Richard Harris at the end! Very neat the way you, David, formed friendships with these men over this time. I imagine that is a thing of pride, and you deserve it, the way you enjoyed and laughed with them and such. Lovely. Thank you.
Thanks for uploading this collection of treasures, Don.
Thanks so much for this. What a couple of delightful guys!
wonderful, just wonderful, thank you so much for making and sharing this compilation. :) we miss them both

Side note. He was marvelous as emperor in gladiator and the best dumbledore in Harry Potter.
When did he play Dumbledore?

I never thought I could smile for almost a solid 3 hour period, but here we are. Thank you so much for this. Loved these two as guests and they seemed to really enjoy making Dave laugh at their stories. Perfect talk show moments
Dave also made them laugh out loud quite a few times.
@@filmneye That’s one of the things I loved about Dave. He has the ability to mould his humour to every guest and always finds a way to make them genuinely laugh

This was amazing, thanks so much - two absolute legends, Richard Harris was so funny and had such an infectious laugh
Thank you for posting this. It's a treasure. I really enjoyed this. They don't make them like this anymore.
Both sadly missed. 💔Richard Harris was such an amazing storyteller‼️ I thoroughly enjoyed this compilation. Thank you for putting it together.💕
ME ALSO
Oh, I shant win. And looks not one bit worried about it, thanks. This is why we loved the guy.
My dad used to play cards with him around this time back in Clifden in Ireland, considered a back water then. O'Toole used to love winding people up, especially by singing god save the Queen (this was rural Ireland in the seventies)
One nights he got a few punches for doing it, and when he begged for forgiveness he sang it again. And again, and again. He didn't care less about the Queen of course, he liked the hell
Great story!
My kind of person 😁
Yeah, Clifden ain't a backwater any mo! The Kardashians are always stopping by and the Dalai Lama spends every summer there.Yes, indeedy....
This was so enjoyable to watch, I am glad I stumbled on it.
