Helena is I think the only actress who can dress like a Gypsy fortune teller and still look, sound and grace like a Queen. God I love this woman soooo much...
JG K, I think it's a bridesmaid's dress. Someone loved it intensely for one day, and then tossed it. Like a Christmas tree. So special. Then, bam, it's on the side of the road...Tinsel still clinging to it. Like a sex crime victim. Underwear inside out. Bound with electrical tape.
I agree without any hesitation. He impressed me often in surprising ways and not just his comedy. He had a more human quality than anyone before or since.
I love her irreverence too, it’s obviously very refreshing. But we have to be fair in that she could afford to be herself for her entire life, and to this degree of irreverence, because she’s British upper class, they can do whatever they want to. The working classes have to get jobs to survive, so it’s a little harder for them to BE themselves in the midst of very real restrictions like work dress codes and others. I have met a few girls who dressed like her as teens and then had to tone it down and totally change as soon as they had to attend their first job interview growing up. Even the art of acting itself, and the entertainment industry at large, now totally belong to the upper classes in the UK. The working classes no longer have access to it. Helena’s family friends are high ranking aristocrats (like Lady Glenn Conor, princess Margaret’s lady in waiting) hence her complete and total freedom to do and be whatever she wants, namely act and look irreverent. I like her but she is not one of the people, which is why she could wear a duck in her head if she wanted to. Just saying that It’s easy to be totally irreverently you when you don’t have to get a job to survive.
she's quick and uncompromising. It's actually kind of refreshing, witnessing the challenge and verbal chess. Emphasizes Craig's wit and charm. Wish I had the skillz.
Uncompromising is a great way to put it. She's not "mean" but she's firm and clever in a way that makes you work your hardest. Probably on my top 10 dinner guests to have
@@Wabajak13 Maybe, but she would likely make lesser mortals uncomfortable, which is something that you have to consider when assembling a dinner party guest list. You would have to be particularly clever with the seating arrangements.
pretty sure everyone knows her agree with you... except her! Stunning beautiful, elegant high street accent, dramatic clothing, lavish curls always done in beautiful styles... she’s the old magic the wrote about hundreds of years ago... maybe she’s part fairy
I've been her fan for 30 years! To hear her beautiful laugh makes me smile and remember the first time I saw her in a movie. Aww. So happy we get to see her work/her acting. Thanks for the upload.
I have watched many of his episodes here on RUclips because I love his manner. I have adored Helena for decades. The two of them conversing in this manner is pure gold. They have such a natural flow. Craig is my all-time favorite host by miles/kilometers.
In Fight Club she changed the line out of the book "I want to have your abortion" into "I haven't been fucked like this since primary school". So, yeah, there's some room for conversation...
I've never really seen Helena in interviews much before (I've liked her but didn't feel like watching interviews of her over the years) but seeing these clips, she is simply ADORABLE and LOVEABLE! Beautiful woman, inside and out. :D
Helena is such a great actor. She played Ophelia and it really resonated with me. I won't forget her in that role. Of course, she's beautiful off camera too.
I love Helena Bonham Carter! Always have! She doesn't give a shit what people think of her quirkiness. Wish her & Tim Burton would've stayed together. They were perfect for each other
@marti so he should have people of colour in his films just for the sake of having them there. Isn't that disingenuous? That's actually racist. Not what he's doing.
@@youturd55 Wasnt he the guy that played Harvey Dent for 3 secs? Idk if that be my go to man lol. I love Burtons earlier films, Ed Wood is up there with my top 5 films of all time. But Burton does have abit of a conservative bent to him, hes only "alternative" in the sense a upper middle class diet goth. I didn't even know about his racial comments till now, & jus through his films always figured him as a center right boomer with stylish edge
The best Bellatrix this planet can ever produce! Also she is very cat like. Almost like a very dark version of Robert Downey Jr. Man Craig Ferguson had the best interviews
"Helena Bonham Carter - She Put The Idea For Geoff In Craig's Mind" Not according to this video. Craig was the one who called the skull his sidekick, she just agreed and went along with the joke.

Haha Yikes! I Had thought of this before commenting, though I'm not educated on the slavery history part. Only seen a couple history of Britain videos on here, randomly over the years, not enough to recall much. I love the British and Scottish. I love Limmy show, Craig Ferguson, Miss Bonham Carter, Ricky Gervais, am I forgetting anyone? Um.. bugger..uh .. God save the Queen!
@@joebryant8500 Being SCOTTISH ! , I only get irritated when English people call Britain England but it doesn't happen nearly as much as it used to and even I can tell there's a difference between supporting slavery and being a self righteous Englishman .
As "mad as a bucket of fish" IS excellent! But in America they say "mad" when they mean "angry". In UK, "mad" refers to " crazy". However, they also say "loopy". Anyway they are BOTH very apt descriptions of "mad". When you think of either one, a bag of snakes OR a bucket of fish. Crazy.
uh, This is riveting television. Craig's show was legendary, and I don't think there will ever be another like it. This particular interview is so funny, and the guest is beautiful. Never seen her on Craig's show. Thanks for uploading!
She's confident in who she is, and has a very unique personality. She's also very unconventionally beautiful, and always has great clothing style. I've always had a crush on her. She doesn't give a damn what anyone thinks about her. At 26:30 she talks about her mismatched shoes at the Golden Globes. This is so typical of her attitude, I don't see how anyone can NOT love her personality!
She did a great job in a movie when she was younger it was called "Lady Jane", you should look for it, she played the character so well you forget who she is.
Every time I see her, I can't help but remember the famous Fight Club scene and the "My God I haven't been f*&ked like that since grade school". I really lover her in all her roles though. She also is the only person to be able to hold her own while starring with Johnny Depp like in Sweeney Todd
Listening to her reminds me of my neurodivergent kids . They change from subject ro subject and have incredible conversations and imagination, eg shrink him and use him as a bobble head. Pure class
It’s so unfortunate...his late night show is such a bad vehicle for his humor. He was hilarious when he had The Colbert Report and was on the Daily Show.
@@mrwassef I'll stick by what I said. I know humor is subjective but he has never, on Late Night, Colbert Report, commercials....anything..ever done anything to make me even snicker. He is not and never has been funny.
She really does have a rare and beautiful vibe about her. A bit of awkwardness and class. I find her enchanting.
Indeed!
That's what English people look like when they're drunk
-Tim Burton
I mean... she is a basic goth english chick. Not exactly a unicorn spotting... Dime a dozen, same in the US.
She says she's not posh, but her family is very, very posh.

You mean like a goth?
Johnny Depp has the same vibe
@@DH_Artist true
shes gorgeous

She's the ultimate "it's not just a phase, mom" goth girl.
She's awesome, she was just perfect Bellatrix Lestrange!
She always looks like most of her various characters.
It looks like she got that dress at a thrift store for one dollar. It suits her.
@@JohannGambolputty22 she makes it work and still looks good.

no one has ever been this good at interviewing celebs. Craig was in a league of his own.
Was that an interview?
It's not an interview it's a late night talk show. They're just chatting, catching up and relaxing.
@@hunter4779 you're definitely a fat virgin.

I agree without any hesitation. He impressed me often in surprising ways and not just his comedy. He had a more human quality than anyone before or since.
@@kazparzyxzpenualt8111 he always felt like the most genuine, definitely
@@TheTuttle99 nice to see your comment today!
Best late night host ever
He may be coming back with the Channel Surf with Craig Ferguson show
I love the chaotic energy she brings. Craig is usually a bit chaotic too, so it makes these interviews extra chaotic, and very entertaining.
Love this woman; shows me you can "be yourself" no matter what! We need more just like her!

She is. Bellatrix. It’s not an act.

It works on me. She's damned appealing and I'm not 100% sure why.

"This film looks good"
"Oh the Alice one?"
"No Avatar actually"
This women is so incredibly talented and I've never seen anyone who has a better humor. Words cant express how much I love Hellie
She nails it in Fight Club and in Sweeney Todd. I feel like you could talk to her about anything and she wouldn't be weirded out
HeikkiP She's with Tim Burton, so yeah... I'd assume her tolerance for weirdness is through the roof.
She'd probably be bored quickly
In Fight Club she changed the line out of the book "I want to have your abortion" into "I haven't been fucked like this since primary school". So, yeah, there's some room for conversation...
I've never met anyone I couldn't weird out or make uncomfortable in some way. It's not exactly a talent that I am proud of.

"My plane wouldn't make it to Albuquerque"

Good to hear that her pleasant persona endures off the stage.
Female version of Captn. Jack sparrow.
Just as mad too

@@davidvondoom2853 all of them
Her and johnny actually did a movie together which is a musical. Sweeney Todd.
She's adorable and eccentric.
She is amazing in everything I've seen her in so far. She seems so nice in interviews, but in a genuine way.

Are you cold? Not yet...
Classic British “ask a stupid question you’ll get a stupid answer” 😆
That was great.
The first interview is constant props and one of the most freewheeling Craig interviews ever.
The conception of Geoff. These are his parents :D
🤔what would that make Grant Imahara? Midwife?
draco argentum dead
That's why he's awasome
I’m concerned how easily I followed all their conversations and tangents 😂😂😂
That's not concerning. :D That's brilliant. :D
Well since I've watched so many of these interviews I guess It's time to subscribe.
Glad you did! And welcome! :D
Shame on you for not subbing you bitch.
John Gault shut yo dumbass up lol.
By the third video I'd recognised the pattern of brilliance and subbed immediately.
That's how Craig gets ya. Welcome to not a real show.
They have such great conversation, such a balance of smooth banter and humor.
"persuading the snake to clench"...the flow of phrases from Craig's mouth is simply impressive
18:03 "I always wanted to be a bear"
*Checks imdb
Poles Apart (Short) 2017
Nanuk (Polar Bear)
She made it!
deadasfak you didn't read IMDB all the way down, you forgot the two cartoons where she played white bear and married 🐻 O:-)
If you’re a bear in San Francisco, you’d be really popular
It was her spirit animal in Fight Club, but that bit got cut. Her polar bear was supposed to eat Ed Norton's penguin.
I read that as *do* a bear.
She is so unique. I love her.
Helena is absolutely hillarious! I love her randomness.
I like how she got weirder and weirder over the years.
Curiouser and curiouser!
Also I never thought she was posh. But those english historical plays!

IT'S CALLED SCHIZOPHRENIA.

Totally needs to be a Blu-Ray BoxSet
He actually joked about it with Grant Imohara from Mythbusters. Then Grant built Geoff.
When she folds her legs up on the chair 😍 she's so comfortable up there
exactly she is literally so effortlessly attractive.
This channel is an absolute RUclips gem, thank you
The day Geoff was born... Or died, I don't know the terminologies.
created a monster c ;
This may have been the craziest two interviews I've ever seen.
Helena is such a great actor. She played Ophelia and it really resonated with me. I won't forget her in that role. Of course, she's beautiful off camera too.
She is an outstanding actress. Loved her in the Harry Potter movies.
Bellatrix Lestrange (aunt of draco malfoy, cousin of sirius black)

I've always thought she was absolutely beautiful, so doe eyed with perfect bone structure. STUNNING!!
I could watch them all day, it's like two mates in the pub having a pint and a chat...Helena is so beautiful..
I think this is without a doubt one of the craziest interviews I have ever seen on Craig show! But I'm sure enjoying the heck out of it! 😁
Craig was the best Late Night Host. These interviews are legendary.
She reminds me of a friend I had in high school, who was one of those who marched to her own drum.
Ha,I know.I am 23 and STILL have a friend like that. A girl, also. Goth 100%. It would be odd seeing her all "girly".
The best Bellatrix this planet can ever produce! Also she is very cat like. Almost like a very dark version of Robert Downey Jr. Man Craig Ferguson had the best interviews
Her grandmother was best friends with Winston Churchill and her great grandfather was Prime Minister during the first half of World War One.
It was only two interviews but it felt like a hundred. I had a bit of a hard time keeping up with their conversations lol
She fits every role.... lately watched her in Enola Holmes and she's good there too....
Helena's mind is so chaotic like Craig once said "we zig when you zag" lol, I love her!!
I finally figured out what accent Johhny Depp has- he has Helena Bonham Carter's accent.
For a thing about his movie "From Hell", I think he said he has about 9 different english accents.
she is so charming and gracious - completely natural, and with presence. just love her. 🖤 ✨
