She was adopted, but never sought her birth parents, she said that would be disrespectful to the Harry's. That takes self assurance, I really admire her attitude.
Debbie would be just great with those beautiful eyes, but she's got those lips, those cheekbones, that hair, that cute nose and she's so nice ... what a bombshell!
Debbie's beauty is just so sublime, her face isn't just simply pretty but there's a sweetness to it.I don't really know how to explain it. She's ethereal to me.
@@brianmorecombe2726 No harm intended in my comment Brian, it was just a joke as I wrote LOL in the end. The "read between the lines" bit was me referring to the fact that I was clearly talking about Debbie in THIS clip when she was young. I think "most" people would have easily understood that I was talking about Debbie's beauty at her peak and not now. But anyways no need to take this seriously bud.
Looking back on Debbie Blondie clips now I realise how ahead of the track she really was. Beauty yes, but so cool, composed and regal and never embarrassing to the teenagers still within us
Chris and Debbie act with such good grace and humour in this clip, faced with so many inane & insensitive comments from a presenter (Noel Edmonds) who I thought at the time was always really annoying. And then the BBC / Jimmy Saville fawning lowers the tone even further. Makes my skin crawl. These two artists together crafted some of the most perfect pop songs in history and this is how we treated them. The UK owes them a huge apology.
Yup, despite being tired Debbie kept polite and composed, but then she's probably had a lifetime's experience of fending off creeps like Edmonds. Chris also showed he was smarter and funnier than Edmonds, despite being patronised by their host.
Funny you should say that ,as my mum has a friend who was on Deal or no Deal (she won) .My mum asked her what Noel was like ,and she replied ,if he takes to you ,you`re fine ,if he doesn`t ,he shows it.
@@Joy-qw3wm Don't think that is the case here though.. Just Edmonds coming off as an obnoxious twat generally without necessarily having it in for either of them at the same time
the women in music today look like they spend days in hair and makeup, debbie always looked like she just rolled out of bed, and is more beautiful than any of them ,that said she was and is much more than a beautiful face ,she also wrote lyrics ,and is one of the most charismatic persons to front a group either male or female ,she has the same kind of magic that bowie had , and annie lennox has truly a rare gift
Noel is particularly rude here, and she has him totally sussed. Chris is irritated, but he hasn't sussed his interviewee out yet.. "My relationship to the studio and the engineers was very direct"...Love it
Thank you Chris for showing this clip. It was so wonderful to relive this moment. I remember watching this as a kid back in '79. It would of been an exciting time for a kid being so close to Christmas. There is an awkward moment watching it back knowing what we know now about Mr Saville. I think Noel had a little too much self-confidence which did reflect on his interview technic. Still a hero to me though.
Everything about her is stunning. Not just the looks The facial "mannerisms" the intangible little things that it is hard to describe but so enchanting.
I was 9 years old then and remember seeing Blondie perform 'Heart Of Glass' on TV, when I suddenly realised there was 'something more' about girls, instead of just being silly and annoying x-))
In some regards this all happened at a great time for her, well into her 30s, a seasoned vet, beyond the kind of exploitation a girls 20 years her junior might've endured, she'd met a thousand Noels by this point too so these kind of 'gigs' were a breeze, she knew what kids expected of her and delivered with grace
She started as a Playboy Bunny! That applies to her! And I love Edie Sedwick i.e., who was before her time, and there was no biggest case of Exploitation! Blondie were in the scene with Andy Warhol! He was an exploiter! But Debbie made something Great, what did Edie, but posing, doing drugs and being confused???! with all due respect to Edie! She could have been as great as any other person! The blame is on Andy and her own Family, and the world that works that way! in that case, and you're right, that is wrong! but... Debbie chose to not be exploited! She went through that... you only know her already famous!
0:24 Noel - "Any chance you are going to sleep right now?", Debbie - "Yeah there is a good chance actually." Oooooo. Oh damn. Get some ice for that man.
I watched this aged 8 and I thought Noel Edmunds was a C*#! * back then even the word C*#! wasn't in my vocabulary as I was as well spoken as the children calling. Debbie and Chris remain timelessly cool
(Manah hata!) Thanks Chris, you made me learn something! The place were everybody went to "Grab Wood" for "Bows!" haha! Well as a writer myself in more than one language, I understand the allegories of Chris, it fits in many ways and many descriptions! and the Mauritius Fluvius was your North River that became lastly the Hudson River! So, Mr. "In-Turd-Viewer" who's Sleeping now????
I think punk and new wave came as a shock to many older people and their way of dealing with it was to get aggressive. Different times. People were more uptight about certain things .
Definitely jealous that homely Chris Stein landed a girl like Debbie. I got that a lot of the same passive-aggressive comments from men when I married an attractive woman 18 years ago.
Yes proper rude and jealous by Edmonds. Debbie was Gorgeous and sweet and Chris was cool and patient with this idiot,Edmonds laugh is asking for a right hook
Noel Edmonds.....I can't find one likable thing about him...obviously has an inflated opinion of himself, insults Chris, his tone is so irritating and his questions are ridiculous (how many records do you think you need to sell to be number 1...wtf?!)
obviously a guy who hates his job.or popstars think he was more hard rock with hard hiting questions seems to be nice soft spoken and a good journalist interviewer that their thing.gotta keep the ratings up yp.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought that. Chris and Debbie handled it with class IMO. If Stein was like Liam Gallagher maybe Edmond's approach could be justified, but he isn't.
maybe it's because I'm from America and have never heard of this host before but a lot of bashing in this thread. He didn't seem rude to me one bit. Literally nothing he said seemed insulting to me. Really goes to show the differences in demeanors between the two countries.
She is so nice to the callers and they are so sweet and childlike sounding....oh I remember being 11 and into Blondie. Now I'm 50 and into Blondie.
Deborah Harry was always a sweetie. She never had that arrogant snark that some artists believe they should have.
Blondie is the greatest.
Their live shows were really fun. These callers seem so young!
The kids calling in back then sound more mature and well spoken than 90% of adults today.
the chavs back then were tuning in to Tis Was
That's odd, because the kids back then are the adults of today! 😂
@@iamyourfuture808 This interview would have been much improved by chucking a bucket of water over them.
... but who are ultimately just calling in to a kids show
@@iamyourfuture808 they were outside causing mayhem
She was adopted, but never sought her birth parents, she said that would be disrespectful to the Harry's. That takes self assurance, I really admire her attitude.
This is wild. The callers are all so nice & polite.
Nowadays sucks.
Debbie would be just great with those beautiful eyes, but she's got those lips, those cheekbones, that hair, that cute nose and she's so nice ... what a bombshell!
It's almost unfair isn't it!
Danielwatt also THE perfect smile and gentle manner .
Debbie's beauty is just so sublime, her face isn't just simply pretty but there's a sweetness to it.I don't really know how to explain it. She's ethereal to me.
I know, right! She's something else! Just her voice, but when you see her, wow! It's a Bright Light!
In 1979 she was yes,not now.
@@brianmorecombe2726 Well she's almost freakin 80 now bud. Please try to read between the lines a little bit LOL

Noel Edmonds is a right Bell end here. Can’t believe I used to love this program.
Edmonds has always been a f**king bell end;
Once a bellend, always a bellend..!!
And so weird too
he was a full blown prick
"He is a total wazzock and I cannot stand him..." Truer words seldom uttered.
Looking back on Debbie Blondie clips now I realise how ahead of the track she really was. Beauty yes, but so cool, composed and regal and never embarrassing to the teenagers still within us
"You'll be getting the Jimmy Saville goodies there". I dread to think what that consisted of.
ONE OF HIS CHAVVY TRACKSUITS LMFAO
I cringed when his name was repeatedly mentioned.
@@mightyV444 "They" ALL knew....."Now then,now then" controlled the BBC.
horrible
@@CamperVanPersie the bbc was totally a part of that
Debbie and Chris showed tremendous grace and politeness when enduring that obnoxious oaf Noel Edmonds. I'd forgotten just how hideous he truly is.

@@MrDiddyDee Fending off? He wasn't leaping on her.
What a stunning woman! The most beautiful who has ever lived!!
Well, second to Marilyn Monroe!
@@BeatleSimon1969 I'd put Debbie over Marilyn personally.
Almost certainly true. However hard you think you will not think of anyone who has absolutely everything going for her like this woman has.
i agree simply the most beautiful woman ever
Without a doubt.
NE: "Any chance of you going to sleep right now?" DH: "Yeah, there is a good chance actually.. ha ha".
One-nil to Debbie!! 😄
I picked up on that right away too!
Debbie is so delightful, charming and down to earth. Softly spoken. Meanwhile, Chris is left " hanging on the telephone".
😂🤣🤣
At least he's not being stalked!
Every SINGLE kids voice who called was soooooo incredibly cute. Makes me unbelievably sad for whats happening there today. :/
Never watched this as a kid but never realised how rude Edmonds could be.
this was a more popular techi behind the scenes minded show.audio visual.
Yeah, Edmonds made this uncomfortable for no reasons. Obnoxcious man.
Funny you should say that ,as my mum has a friend who was on Deal or no Deal (she won) .My mum asked her what Noel was like ,and she replied ,if he takes to you ,you`re fine ,if he doesn`t ,he shows it.

Thank you so much to Chris Lillyman for uploading this piece of TV Gold !
God, i could just look at her forever!
Both are a lot sweeter to the kids than Noel
Aw she is totally lovely she is a icon!!!
Chris is cool and very handsome. Seems like a real laugh and a nice, intelligent guy.
Spot on Chris is a wonderful human being!♥️♥️👍
Noel Edmunds is actually JEALOUS of Chris Stein's being with Debbie! Obvious.
i think he was instead rightfully annoyed at chris' inattentiveness and his playing around.
jas22 - I think Noel Edmunds was just a square - another uptight Brit :P
Edmonds!
Debbie is a guy.
@@keithjohnston643 then say it in public. show your face and upload a video about this. lets all have a look at you
She really is just absolutely magnificent. I could watch Deborah Harry read me the Yellow Pages and just be entranced by her
While you're hanging on the telephone boom boom
Debbie is so nice and natural 🥰🎶🎶🇬🇧

This. TOTALLY.
This is so sweet . All these babies asking questions. So sweet.
What sweetheart she is
Debbie was stunning beautiful....
Is
1979 what a great music scene noall Edmonds talking about Bloody Ciff Richard
To be fair, 'We Don't Talk Anymore' was the best record he ever made and fully deserved to be number one in '79.
She is just so stunning.
God What A crush I had on Debbie Harry back in the day.
She is mesmerising
10:40 "you'll be getting the Jimmy Saville goodies" oh dear
Gary Glitters latest album.
I can look at that face all day long! Not the guys' faces.
Well all straight men would tho.
That's what it's there for 😉
Forever & Always
Debbie could read the Yellow Pages front to back and it would never sound boring.

Noel edmunds is excruciating, I watched this as a kid , poor debbie and chris!
Fantastic nostalgia. I wish Id hv seen it at the time. Thank you for posting.
Chris Stien was the FIRST Vloger and he is still at it.
Does he have a you tube channel?

Chris is a legend!😇👍
ms harry is a prime example of beauty personified
Everything about her is stunning. Not just the looks The facial "mannerisms" the intangible little things that it is hard to describe but so enchanting.
She was so lovely after a hard night!
She has the most kissable lips EVER!!!. She's a goddess.
gorgeous woman !
Why are they both so cool as hell and attractive.
I've always found Debbie more attractive as a straight female lol no homo
I love how Debbie looks slightly stoned..
I was 9 years old then and remember seeing Blondie perform 'Heart Of Glass' on TV, when I suddenly realised there was 'something more' about girls, instead of just being silly and annoying x-))

NO MATTER WHAT AGE I SEE HER... SHE PUTS A BIG SMILE ON MY FACE.
She is beautiful
It’s her essence.
Totally agree with you she is a beautiful legend

Noel - "Any chance you are going to sleep right now?",
Debbie - "Yeah there is a good chance actually."
Oooooo. Oh damn. Get some ice for that man.
I caught that too 😆. A rare zinger from Debbie.
Heavens, I can remember watching this interview at the time, when I was eleven, great stuff! :)
For me the late Keith Chegwin made the show watchable with the outside broadcasts. 💯
Now he was a total twat
Maggie Philben 👄
Yes. I especially liked when Cheggers asked ABBA how long it took them to record their Greatest Hits album.
A very sexy Debbie Harry who has to deal with Noel Edmunds.
Still a **** all these years later too. Debbie and Chris are so polite as well, which makes him look even worse. Good on them.
Stray Cats were an American band that started off being more successful in the UK than their home country.
Chris rea as well.
“Have a word with Jimmy Saville”... There’s something you don’t hear on tv anymore
Nope a no..no..
I was 7 days old when this aired
Gotta love Richard Selwyn-Barnett, asking the hard-hitting questions. Hahaha!
haha! the kids just all sounded so cute.
he sounded so cute and polite
I love Debbie!
Debbie looks at Edmonds with absolute contempt... and it's totally justified, the guy is a complete tool.
“What’s your favourite song you like to sing in bed” 😂😂😂
I'm dying 😂😂😂
Like to see the film he shot ....That would be interesting with stage footage ...😊
Everybody want to talk just with Debbie!!😄
Jimmy Savile came on the show last week?. I'll bet he did.
😅😅😅😅😅👍
His jizz was probably all over the gear he was giving away. I wouldn't put anything past JS.
Probably came in the show, as well.
Proper retro TV content. The best kind.
This is all so charming and sweet
I used to have there album eat to the beat awsome album
I watched this aged 8 and I thought Noel Edmunds was a C*#! * back then even the word C*#! wasn't in my vocabulary as I was as well spoken as the children calling. Debbie and Chris remain timelessly cool
I still have butterflies for this woman 45 years later.
Could someone digitally erase Edmonds from this clip?
why not replace his face with savile's + have some one do his impression now then now then.
Sid Vicious ~ well said Sir, well said indeed....!

LMAO ! That Barnet on Edmonds !
I love this.... Blondie❤️❤️❤️❤️
Stunning woman, Edmonds is and always was a total w anker
This is the THIRD interview I have seen of Debbie and Chris and the interviewer is always rude?! WTF?!

she's just luminescent!
Yea the host really is rude! Maybe he is jealous?
Agree agressive

He got screwed over for millions in recent years.

How can any man not fall in love with Deborah Harry. This woman still has my heart forever. The most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
Chris Stein doing BTS video back in '79? It would be cool to see some of that footage.
Chris's voice is almost identical to Johnny Ramone's.
