    Stewart is one of the greatest actors of all time. His stories are fascinating to listen to. Conan shows an admiral level of reverence with an equal amount of fun at the same. A truly outstanding interview. Great work, Conan.

      Definitely. Our school-system here in Germany is going to s#!t as well - and we are not even a resource-rich country - we actually have to place our entire bet on knowhow and an educated youth, yet our politicians keep wringing out every drop out of that system... which is both, truly idiotic and also quite sad...

    Interestingly the Yorkshire dialect word "laik, leck, leika" also exists in the Scandinavian languages and in common use today to mean "to play". In Icelandic it's still "leika". The word for "toy" in Norwegian is "leketøy" which combines the two words, and the same is true in Danish with "legetøj".

    I could listen to Sir Patrick Stewart for hours. He has a channel where he reads a sonnet a day. It is one of my favorite things to watch and hear Stewart has a razor sharp wit as well! Conan O'Brien recognizes talent and treats it with respect. He is so good at what he does. This was a great episode. Very funny and bittersweet.

      Right? I thought so as well - that was actually the entire hinge that turned everything around for him and opened a new door, or let him click, more like... Language can be a very powerful thing, if you learn how to wield it. And by god - he did...
      BTW - there is also a great YT channel about the English language by one Simon Roper. He dissects everything from modern to Old English, to Old Norse... and other Germanic languages, too. It's quite interesting, if you are interested in etymology.

    A'reyt Conan. I know Mirfield well and grew up speaking like Patrick. At university a student from near Liverpool heard a fellow Yorkshire student and I speaking dialect and pronounced "Eehi, doan youse talchhh funneeei".
    A graduate student, who had done the same project as me in her final year, was talking to me whilst we waited for a lecturer. She was doing a student Shakespeare play. I said that someone should do it in my Yorkshire dialect, as it would make more sense. Someone else obviously had this thought as, a couple of years later, there was a theatre company doing just that.
    Note that I used to pass Mirfield going to work and further along is the supposed grave of Robin Hood, a character Captain Picard played in TNG.
    You might be surprised to learn, there are more Yorkshire folk than there are Scottish.

    I never had that kind of a teacher and was a mediocre student. I wonder what could've been, instead of my well paying sales job now. For me it's probably because I had no outstanding talent. But I think many real talents are failed by the school system, because they are different and don't fit in.
