He is just so hot. It's insane that a man can be so incredibly sexy without even trying.. and you see interviews when he's not acting when he comes across so shy and quite unsure. Brilliant actor, and great bloke for keeping his private life exactly that. Private. He must (and still) have had women and men flocking to him. And it's never once been in a trashy celeb mag, and no one actually knows a thing about his relationships. Good for him.
My one true love playing my other true love. I must own this on DVD. Tim Curry playing William Shakespeare is a dream come true ❤️❤️❤️ and when he is angry •swoon•
On Broadway, and brilliant he was. Simon Callow was the original Mozart in London. He was also in the film as Shikanader. Tom Hulce was great as Mozart but I sort of wish Tim Curry had been given the chance to do the part on screen.
I would pay every cent I have to see that footage. Amadeus was one of the first movies I fell in love with and when I finally saw it on stage, I was literally speechless for a good 20 minutes after the curtain came down. I couldn't find the right words to express how incredible and beautiful and heartbreaking it was. I still can't. As perfect as Hulce was, I'd kill to see what Curry did with the role.
Tim has never suffered a lack of talents. He has them, then AND now, I’m abundance. For years I knew him for one layer - RHPS. But I have been walking the halls of RUclips and have seen Tim in a carnival of talents, each better than the last! Tim, thank you for sharing with me (us) the many, many layers you are. What a grand career, my friend. Be well! ❤️
Man oh man…and, curiously, Rowan Atkinson in black leather and goatee as Elizabethan Blackadder. I was truly sorrowing when he was no more…and it was a long time before we had reruns I could tape on VHS - a happy miracle!
The reason why this is his one of his best performances aside from Rocky is because he's basically playing Frank throughout just with no make-up, a beard and an earring. I mean watch his facial expressions, listen to the way he talks, every mannerism is the same as Frank n Furter....and its GENIUS
Impressive! (Of course, mostly everything he does is.) I'm constantly amazed by the guy -- even when it's by something he's done years ago that I haven't seen before! He has always been extraordinary -- It's just too bad his music career never "took off." Some of the songs he sang should be (and are, to me) classics.
I remmbr watchng this bak in 1978, an ITV production, A&E ddnt evn xist bak in tha 70s, A&E was creatd founded in 1984, WiL Shakespear his Life and times, mayb prhaps not bst Britsh tv drama, but compared to tha crap made today these days, most tv shows produced in tha 70s r mastr piecs art works
Oh my God, is that Nicholas Clay in bed with a hair extension? It's clear the two actors are into each other, rather than the chick spitting out her lines and stalking out.
I love that no one ever talks about the series just about Tim. In every movie or series or whatever. When he's in it, than he is the only subject to talk about, and the rest of the play is pretty much forgotten. A little bit weird.
Wonder if this can be purchased now on Amazon or EBay? Such an excellent series. They wouldn't allow it in the states back in the 70s because it was "too violent". ???
Is it just me, or at 1:30 till at the very end of this video, did he just slipped into Frank mode? Anyways, this is great by the way, wish i had a dvd of this....
Is it me or do you expect them to burst into song at every minute.... completely overacting, but Frank `N`Furter does look the part indeed!! ;-D The dvd is available everywhere folks!

You will get no argument from me. ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I wish there were men like Tim curry I. Every way❤😂
I just think he is so talented in everything he is in. He should have been in so much more. Greatest underused talent ever. Tim Curry is the BEST💕
Cindy, I was just about to leave pretty much the very same comment. Tim Curry the very Best!
exsactly never understood why he was not in more major roles!!!!
He was definitely underrated, the most talented man ever, he literally could do it all ♥️♥️
I love when Tim acts all pissed off. So sexy. lol
My one true love playing my other true love. I must own this on DVD. Tim Curry playing William Shakespeare is a dream come true ❤️❤️❤️ and when he is angry •swoon•
Don't know if you got it yet, but there are many DVDs of this WILL SHAKESPEARE BBC production on eBay. I just got one for $12.99.
@@kt9166 thank you for letting me know. I haven’t got it yet but I will definitely check out eBay for the dvd. You are so kind to let me know 💖
A 42 yrs crush still burning for this talented man. My gosh he is so beautiful in this and even sexier with poetic words🥰😍
Suddenly I'm interested in William Shakespeare 😂
What a handsome Tim!😘
He was also Mozart in the original production of 'Amadeus.'

What a wonderful face Tim had!! I am so sorry see him now so sick......He will remain always one of my HEROES!!!!!! DON'T GIVE UP THE FIGHT TIMMY!!
I haven't seen Tim this mad since Janet dissed Rocky for being too muscular.
I can hear Frank through Shakespeare when he shouts lol
Tim has beautiful eyes
Tim has never suffered a lack of talents. He has them, then AND now, I’m abundance. For years I knew him for one layer - RHPS. But I have been walking the halls of RUclips and have seen Tim in a carnival of talents, each better than the last!
Tim, thank you for sharing with me (us) the many, many layers you are. What a grand career, my friend. Be well! ❤️
Whoa, the intensity of his eyes! Awesome
tim definitely acts with his eyes
"She gave me despair!!" Curry delivers this line with pathos. What I loved about this series is that it shed light into the writing of the sonnets.
Impressive!!, he did a great job with Shakespeare, always did love his voice.
his hair is perfect
He was so gorgeous
His eyes burn brightly
I miss the days when A&E actually was about Arts and Entertainment!
And Bravo showed only old kinescopes and early footage of great performances by musical and dramatic artists and dancers.
Yes before it became the war channel and bad reality tv series
I feel cheated by history. I wish it was 1978 again.
SAME
Closed captioning:
"She gave me this bear." 🐻
Tim Curry: Sexiest Man Alive
True
The second I saw Tim Curry, I knew it was gonna be big.
Two amazing actors. Tim Curry. Nuff said. And Nicholas Clay who will forever be Lancelot from Excalibur!
Man oh man…and, curiously, Rowan Atkinson in black leather and goatee as Elizabethan Blackadder. I was truly sorrowing when he was no more…and it was a long time before we had reruns I could tape on VHS - a happy miracle!
Thank you for the info on NIcholas Clay. I thought he looked familiar.
Wait Nicholas Cage played Lancelot ?
@@conniecarroll7222 Clay, not Cage. But that would have been pretty wild.
@@BrettOwen71 THAT would have been something, indeed.
The other actor is Nicholas Clay (Excalibur), for the ones who may want to know who he is... But who can shine when Tim is around? ;)
If this is a whole movie I want to find it and see watch it oh my God is he goodness
The reason why this is his one of his best performances aside from Rocky is because he's basically playing Frank throughout just with no make-up, a beard and an earring. I mean watch his facial expressions, listen to the way he talks, every mannerism is the same as Frank n Furter....and its GENIUS
👍👍👍👍👍
I didn't make him for YOU!
@@markdp1983 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👡💄🙌🏽
Not quite! This character doesn't have the seductiveness and twisted character of Frank n Furter.
I know this was years ago but could you please tell me from what film I assume TIM CURRY is in ? I do not recognize this one at all.
Those sexy eyes!
Loved him in the movie Times Square! Such a fantastic actor ❤

Owww. My ovaries!
Tim freaking Curry! I love it!
"This line goes.... INTO THE FIRE!!" lol

Thanks RUclips Algorithm. I needed this 13 year old video of an obscure TV movie with Tim Curry. No sarcasm.
I would give Tim Curry that work😍
The best Shakespeare ever
thank you so much for sharing!!!! this performance is great!
I need a cold shower after watching this
Tim Curry has some serious hair. 💖
i don't know what's going on here but i like it.
That was amazing! Dude was a lady killer in his youth, and even throughout his career, Tim Curry still could slay and be AWESOME! THis was so cool!
Horrible?? This was when A&E was amazing. Consider what they play now. Sad, just sad.
+trexguy I wholeheartedly agree
Fully agree with you
Oh my God, is that Nicholas Clay in bed with a hair extension? It's clear the two actors are into each other, rather than the chick spitting out her lines and stalking out.
Wow. Amazing talent on show.
Love to watch the full season.
I just got done watching this and Tim Currys Performace was Great though the whole show.
Wow, Tim is just brilliant!!! O.O Maybe the best acting scene I've ever seen.
I love that no one ever talks about the series just about Tim. In every movie or series or whatever. When he's in it, than he is the only subject to talk about, and the rest of the play is pretty much forgotten. A little bit weird.
Have seen the Whole Show and Tim Curry is Great in it
Hey and there's Roger Lloyd Pack!
*_Life of Shakespeare_* (1978)
Tim Curry as William Shakespeare.
Nicholas Clay as Henry [Wriothsley], 3rd Earl of Southampton.
I kept waiting for him to bite his knuckle...." even smiling makes my face ache"
0:21 That hair!
Nicholas Clay was greatly underutilized. He ended up an acting teacher.
I want to see the rest, I'm enjoying it
he finna transform into Frank
Yes, I could see it! like it was about to happen!
that was great! i would love to see the entire production!
good lordy
Exactly what I thought, especially when he throws his head back and yells... just as he does when hitting 'Riff-Raff'.
Loads of cranky Frank. I likey!
0:41 😱🙈😏😍😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man, how did I miss this one???
Hot ❤
Whats a nice voice)))
This sounds crazy but Curry looks just like Shakespeare
My oh my, Tim in shakespeare costume.. going on ebay to look for the dvd of this, who needs porn?!!
What cant he do?
Damn! Would love to see the whole thing. ❤☮🌎
Thought that other fellow looked familiar. He played Lancelot in one of my all time favorite films, Excalibur, directed by John Boorman. ❤☮🌎
Wonder if this can be purchased now on Amazon or EBay? Such an excellent series. They wouldn't allow it in the states back in the 70s because it was "too violent". ???
The hair in this was certainly... a choice
My GOSH!! This is the ONLY TIME NICHOLAS CLAY EXUDES THE MOST SEXXXY HANDSOME BEAUTY PERFECTION!! Tim curry is still unbeatable as FrankenFurter.
I cannot help but feel this is more Blackadder II than serious Shakespeare!
Is it just me, or at 1:30 till at the very end of this video, did he just slipped into Frank mode?
Anyways, this is great by the way, wish i had a dvd of this....
So what is brilliant Nicholas Clay? Chopped Liver?
I am in love with him you’re Frank’s furter
Is it me or do you expect them to burst into song at every minute.... completely overacting, but Frank `N`Furter does look the part indeed!! ;-D
The dvd is available everywhere folks!
And in the opening the guy on the right of thec3cm3n is the guy from the vicar of Dibley...farmer
The other guy's are just looks stupid. Tim Curry on the other hand looks really handsome.
This is awesome. Title? Available on dvd?
Fuck i just realized who that is:Its nicholas clay from excalibur, the guy who plays lancelot.
superbe....!!!!!!!!!!!
Fuck i can't stop laughign every time i see him even in this performance.Something about seeing tim curry it just makes me want to laugh.
Surprised to see Trigger in this. Was half expecting Del Boy to show up
Tim Curry a genius at what he is doing per usual. The actress was painfully bad.
It's trigger
TRIGGER!
please upoload the all episodes...
@karamarinas I agree...I heard nothing but Frank N Furter...haha...Tim Curry is amazing!
frank n furter is a part of tim^^
TC is HOT and adorable and talented and … everything 🌷
I KNOW!!!! THATS CRAZY :0
You can't park there Dave
could you post
it in it s entirety...pretty please?
+monica anastasiadis It's a 6 part series. I recall taping it on my old betamax machine, with crappy reception. This upload is a great snippet of it.
Who is Nicholas Clay supposed to be in this?
+spikedpunch3576 The Earl of Southampton.
Does anyone know who the second man is that speaks right at the beginning?? He sounds so much like David Bowie to me but it doesn’t seem to be him…
Can anyone tell me if I can find this in DVD?
Esto está con subtitulos en castellano??
@JackolynSparrow you know it
Is that Daniel Day Lewis?!
Is that Jeff Bridges?
