I used to serve Emma and her family in a ‚wee Tearoom‘ in Scotland, she always asked for builders tea and would tell me hilarious stories about LA diets😍
As a schoolboy brought up in 1950's, Lancashire coalfields. I dreamed of living in the Scottish Highlands. This is after a friend, whose parents had money, they had a shop..came back from a holiday in the Highlands, told me stories of mountains, lakes (lochs), etc. Years later I did just that and got a job working on an estate in the Highlands..with my own little cottage. I lived in Scotland for around 28 years..until I moved overseas. My new home has mountains, lakes etc. Now at 72, I am happy in my new home.

Emma Thompson told Graham Norton the same tale and I roared just as madly and appreciatively. I also know that Jonathan Ross isn’t that fantastic a host as I had thought - he interjected at the wrong time and missed the best bit of Emma’s tale. Yay to Graham Norton and the ever so lovely Emma Thompson
I agree that Graham Norton is better, but I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing. I like a host that isn't perfect for once - more relatable to me :D.
Love Graham Norton, have been watching him forever. Jonathon Ross is the Elmer Fudd of British talk shows. One of these days he's going to have that "wascally wabbit" on as a guest.
If someone, anyone, could just get Ross to shut up while guests are answering his question the world would be a better place. He thinks viewers are interested in what HE has to say.
All of the host of talk shows in the states talk over all of the guests and it is so annoying! And to top all of them Jimmy Fallon cackles like an old witch at his own unfunny "jokes". I have completely stopped trying to watch any of them.
@@crinkle2649 Not to mention Joe Scarborough on ”Morning Joe”- he even interrupts Mika Brzezinski (his co-host and wife) all the time and spends more time pontificating at his guests than listening to what they have to say. Windbag. (Like Mr. Ross.)
This is one of my favorite humans on the earth. Beautiful, talented, sane, funny and like all the great British actresses, you will never see her alter her face. So many actresses say they can’t get rolls after a certain age, well, tell that to Emma and Helen Miran and Judy Dench, etc.
Emma doesn't need to worry about growing old, she's like Diana in that she totally gets even better looking with age Love her in any movies I've seen, she's amazing and always does fab interviews
I heard this story before I think with Colbert but this version gave more detail and the best - thanks Emma for the laugh as a fellow ageing woman (in Sydney)
I've only been watching Emma Thompson interviews for less than a week and I think this is already the like fifth time I've heard this story xD I think this was the best delivery tho
@@conorsmith8551 she did not win it for In The Name of The Father. She won two Oscars, first was for leading actress in Howard’s End, and the second for writing Sense And Sensibility.
Even though she's a Brit, she is a national treasure in any country! I think after her father's Oscar melt down, Willow may not play Annie or anything else for quite a while!
she actually turned down the role long before the meltdown; this episode aired in 2012; furthermore, i think it's wrong to "visit the sins of the fathers upon the children"; that said, ppl are known to be irrational, cowardly and unjust so it's entirely possible his family will suffer cuz of his scandal
Sometimes they need to watch the time window how long they can have for each answer to a question and also, they want to ask all the question they prepared.
Craig Ferguson is an underrated interviewer although he’s Scottish that’s not well known in the 🇬🇧 he did the late late show in America for a few years and you’ll find him on RUclips! You’re welcome....
I thought she was Scottish tho like I swear she was born there and her moms Scottish what amazes me is his Scotland and England are so freaking close yet they have different accents Ireland I understand it’s off a bit sways but Scotland and England not having the same accent and yes I get there’s a diffrent thod of Scottish accent a different type of English accent friending on where u live but the closes ness of Scotland and England u would think it would just be a different verstion of either a Scottish or English accent for both regions yet the Scottish have I even think there own language like .
whats wrong with ET showing the rest of we 'normal' females up? y can't she stop 'producing'??? was it grammar school??? why does she have 2b the best all the time??? vote the SENS Research Foundation ... !
Are you ready for Heaven? Have you ever lied, stolen used God's name as a curse word (O-M-G)? According to God's law, you're guilty. But wait, God loves you, he made a way out. God so loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever believes in him will not die but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Please think about it. Repent/believe before the rapture, before the one world government. Jesus died for you,live for him. Love U
Way off base there. She is one of the most self-effacing celebrities around. She is hugely talented and get visibly uncomfortable when someone points that out in an interview.
What a HYPOCRITE !! Why doesn't she mention the fact that Harvey helped her with her career? I didn't see her turn down a part such as "Love Actually" which was great for her...now Harvey is such a 'horrible' person....
I used to serve Emma and her family in a ‚wee Tearoom‘ in Scotland, she always asked for builders tea and would tell me hilarious stories about LA diets😍
What a great story.
Doesn't even try. She's just genuinely funny and brilliant.
Natural.
Apparently she wanted to be a stand up comedian. I think she still can.
I didn’t think it was possible to love her more than I already do! What a brilliantly fun and endearing aura she has.
How bout the fact that she runs a little hedgehogs haven.
@@chibalearns40 well there we go, she's gone and 1up'd herself! 🤗

She and Miriam Margolyes are amazing story tellers

She is the extraordinary wit...and so real to boot. Cant help loving her.
Emma Thompson is a legend, a true phenomenal, talented, lovely, quick wit legend. U.K.'s best as far as I'm concerned.
Also Miriam Margolyes
If someone, anyone, could just get Ross to shut up while guests are answering his question the world would be a better place. He thinks viewers are interested in what HE has to say.
I agree! I watched a Tom Jones interview from many years ago and Johnathon Ross just would not let him speak.....

She's a brilliant storyteller
amen!!!!
How she describes rap music is on point though. I can't stop laughing.
She is delightful every time. I think she's a riot to be around. In all the best ways possible. Sensible, too. Which is not always a real combination.

@@markbrett2969 movie rolls honey…
@@rebeccamccoy2346 roles......
@@markbrett2969 😆👏
I’been in love with her since her first movie and every time I see her I get enchanted all over again 💚
I agree. Much of recent rap sounds the same to me. "Have the same shape" is such a nice and accurate way of putting it.
So this is where this story first came out. I've seen her talk about this one so many times, and it's just as hilarious always! ♥️♥️
It's like her life keeps getting better and better.
Brooke’s face is priceless. No way you could get away with that on American puritanical late night tv.
Americans need permission to say and do anything including whether to laugh - and they're bringing it here
Oh don’t worry, she‘s told this story on US tv! Late night with Stephen Colbert! It’s great every time!! 😉
@@thewhitewatches6794 she said t!ts on cbs?
@@sblack48 oh yes‘ 😆
She’s beautiful. Her Scottish accent was spot on.
The Rappers... Yes. Love Emma. So many talents!
Emma doesn't need to worry about growing old, she's like Diana in that she totally gets even better looking with age
Love her in any movies I've seen, she's amazing and always does fab interviews
It´s a clip from 2012.
Nevertheless, she always looks fabulous, because her energy is so radiant that it ´shines through´ her appearance, if you know what I mean.
I heard this story before I think with Colbert but this version gave more detail and the best - thanks Emma for the laugh as a fellow ageing woman (in Sydney)
It was on Graham Norton quite sure. I don’t recall her also telling it on colbert and I watch most of her interviews lol
I've only been watching Emma Thompson interviews for less than a week and I think this is already the like fifth time I've heard this story xD I think this was the best delivery tho
LOVE Sense and Sensibility, Just watched it again recently.
I think her mom is great too!
A truly great actress! Very funny and down to earth!
Love her! She's also very charming!
She is growing old gracefully. She's definitely not plastic!
Gosh, this episode was filmed 10.5 years ago!
Best story EVER! I laughed so hard... though I'm sure it was slightly embellished, Dame Emma knows how to tell a good one!
Her honesty & always so in the moment, shes amazing 💕🌼🏆
Stephen a fry said that Emma Thomson was the most brilliant person that he ever knew……he said that “every single bone in her body is clever”
Quality story, she's so fab, now i know why she can do a scots accent so well
I love Emma Thompson.
She's your national treasure!!!
She should have won another couple of Oscars for Remains Of The Day & Love Actually.
Hope she wins for Leo
Yeah but she was already nominated and won for in the name of the father same year 😀
@@conorsmith8551 she did not win it for In The Name of The Father. She won two Oscars, first was for leading actress in Howard’s End, and the second for writing Sense And Sensibility.
@@josephjasem7926 true, sorry, she was nominated, my bad
She is so funny, she was the naked burglar, hysterical.
Do you feel better now? 🙄
Emma Thompson brings real to life also she is a great actress
I just want to hang out with her ONE TIME. She is brilliant.
Yes indeed, she is a lovely person
She is amazing
what's wap music?
Does it not look like Ross’ chair is positioned at the bottom of an escalator?
Yes, it is a bizarre desk
Or the top ! Waiting for him to roll backwards and disappear down behind his desk
Even though she's a Brit, she is a national treasure in any country! I think after her father's Oscar melt down, Willow may not play Annie or anything else for quite a while!

So so funny .🤣Linda Bellamy x
You watch any talk show host 90% of them always draw the spotlight back to them.
A bit different from how she told it on the Graham Norton show 😂
She killed with that story punch line ending
Can he not interrupt his guest?/ seriously poor form for someones who's been in the game for ages
Only Graham Norton gives plenty of time to his guests to chat about everything!!!
Sometimes they need to watch the time window how long they can have for each answer to a question and also, they want to ask all the question they prepared.
Craig Ferguson is an underrated interviewer although he’s Scottish that’s not well known in the 🇬🇧 he did the late late show in America for a few years and you’ll find him on RUclips! You’re welcome....
I think he's awful. Watch his interview with Mitchell and Webb, they can hardly get a word in without him interrupting
Knowing that Emma Thompson swims in rivers and ponds naked only makes her love her 10 times more 🤭🥰🏆

Love her!!!
was funnier when she told it on graham norton 2 years ago...
This clip originally aired in 2012, as it says in the description. Who knows where she told it first? I have heard it many times.
Emma, you should get lin manual to help with you with rap. He’s the best of the best.
They did it in 9 months and no-one could have done it faster! How about the scientists in Belgium and Oxford?
I love this show.
She is brilliant ❣️
Love Emma!!!
😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love her! So funny.
i am Sure she watches her movies..lol
American actors guest are the most fun to watch i dont have to understand what they are saying because of the thick accent.
Funny how, as an Italian, I understand way better British accent than the American one. The words are pronounced more distinctly..
Emma is speaking English, without a hint of an accent! So probably the American Actors have the thick accent?
@@victoriaamos3175 she used a Scottish accent at times
I love her!
That old chestnut
Brooke shields still looking hot
Good lord she is so funny
Emma Thoms.is so funny.But her accent a little to much understand. Thanks for title's that you can read.
Not really
No need to say the intruder was not sane. Rude!
great actress if she plays it i believe it
whats wrong with ET showing the rest of we 'normal' females up? y can't she stop 'producing'??? was it grammar school??? why does she have 2b the best all the time??? vote the SENS Research Foundation ... !
Hilarious!
When was this? Why is she looking way younger here than 2-3 years ago? She's looking like an average 40 year olds.
I don't think this is recent. I wish RUclips would date things properly.
In the description. Original broadcast date 14 January 2012.
Johnathan Ross please please get fit.

She’s not
Ross is mediocre
I dont believe her
We will all survive
God Emma is so great.Tells us about climate change after jetting in on her massive plane last year.Rich whopper🤣
British culture sounds bloated and tired these days ...
When I was in my 30s I wanted to be her.
OMG great joke!
Cannot abide the smug hypocrite .
Which one?
They can't stand you either 🙄
How is this story even funny at all?
Well, first you have to have a sense of humor.
