- A clip from the show Room 101. Kirsty Young's pet hates include people without a volume dial when they speak. But with actors at least, it's okay. A good thing too, as out walks Brian 'DIIIIIIIIVE!' Blessed.

One of my English friends once expressed surprise that I or any American knew who Brian Blessed was. I told him, "Of course Americans know who Brian Blessed is. We can hear him."
LOL
That's such a great answer
Great answer!
based and loudpilled
Across the Atlantic! No telephone needed!
Brian Blessed is the only man who can speak in Caps Lock
made my day
...boldface, and in 72 point type...
The only living man that we're aware of, since America's Billy Mays passed on, but then he also wasn't a classically trained actor.
Kenny Futch I think you'll find Brian is...
this is so accurate it hurts
CRY HAVOC!!!!!, AND SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR!!!!!!!!.
BRAIN BLESSED IS IMMORTAL.
not anymore. RIP brian
@@kiwi.fruit.twitch.sensation You bastard! You had me for a minute there. 😟
And LET slip the dogs of war*
metal gear solid 3: ass eater Delete this comment right now or I’ll tell Brian so he can sound pure thundering fury into your ears until they bleed for such an insult
@@CharlieQuartz fuck yourself
if brian did this all the time snooker would be the most watched sport ever
josh stone i'd like to see him narrate a chess game
"DON'T MOVE THE PAWN OVER THERE YOU SILLY BUGGER!!!"
It would watched in the U.S.A. as well. The ratings would be through the roof.
Lol
A truly brilliant talent, always happy to make fun of himself. Not many Classically trained Actors would, they tend to take themselves far too seriously. The World will be a poorer place when he is no longer with us.
A true English hero. Wouldnt look or sound out of place on a medieval battlefield swinging an axe into some poor sods face.
So true, he'd make a incredible king too.
Did you just Sin City?
And he did, for the first five minutes of _Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves_ back in 1991...
"GOD! AND KING RICHARD!"
and in Blackadder
He trained to go up to the international space station, can you imagine his voice in that thing. In space no one can hear you scream, but you can hear brian blessed talk.
Americans: "Houston, we have a problem"
Brian Blessed: "FUCKKKKK! THIS IS ALL BOLLOXED YOU FUCKING BASTARDS"
They could certainly use him to communicate with other galaxies if they wanted to 😂 "COME ON, SHAPE UP AND VISIT US, YOU LAZY B*STARDS, BEFORE I CHIN YOU ALL!"
Brian Blessed is exactly what I'd expect Santa Claus to be like without all the holiday gear on. Just the absolute incarnation of a jolly nature.
Or, The Ghost of Christmas Present! He’s sure as heck got the beard for it!
I can already hear him telling somebody, "KISS MY HOLLY JOLLY ASS!"
@@0_dearghealach_083bro that's exactly what I was thinking :D
Brian Blessed is a very jolly, pleasant man. Impossible to see this guy and walk away without a smile.
... you must have missed that class at university about when is a smile not a smile ...
That man is a living embodiment of jolliness.
How do we know that he isn't santa? Both the embodiment of Jolliness... Both Like a laugh... Both are always smiling... The only reason no one has said it is because brian doesn't wear red. Santa's his one night a year thing. The rest of the time? He's THE Brian Blessed.
Variousnumber
so Santa swears like a sailor?
I never said that. I mean, no one ever see's santa do they?
CorvusCorone68 St. Nick is the patron saint of sailors, he must have picked up a thing or two.
Gregg Nolse He's also patron saint of prostitutes... and getting them off the streets. Either way... Yeah, Santa/St Nick/ Brian Blessed (And his name is pronounced Bless-id, not Bless-d-) would definitely have heard his fair share of gutter language,
*"I COULD HAVE FARTED THAT IN!"*
+Professor Heavy "YOU GREAT STEAMING PILLOCK!"
+Professor Heavy "Cry Havoc, and Let Slip the Dogs of war!"
Best line ever :D
😂
And he doesn't even exaggarate when he says that! He really COULD have farted that in! Along with the silly poolboy and all the women!
In a perfect world Brian Blessed would be King
He was in _The Blackadder_
... frenchie marie antoinette husband ... "let them eat cake" ? ... but rosemary antoinette we do not have the flour for bread let alone cake ! ...
BRIAN THAT SCENERY HAS A FAMILY.
he chewed them too...
... you went down with the titanic ... wova woden ...
HAD a family
We all expected Brian to turn on some more volume when on he shot, regardless of outcome. But I did not quite expect the ball to bounce off and swiftly being0 followed by "OH CALAMITY!!!" shouted in such a tone only described as the way someone outside the titanic would have shouted once it hit the iceberg. I love that man so much
He’s who I pictured Robert Baratheon as when I read A Song of Ice and Fire.
Oh my god YES!!!
Same here.
He's who George R. R. Martin pictured Robert Baratheon as when he wrote A Song of Ice and Fire. ;)
Well, more accurately, his portrayal of King Richard IV in the first season of Blackadder.
He's who Kenneth Branagh wanted as Odin when he made Thor.
"CRY HAVOC AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR" - I also like to yell that line every now and then. Doesn't have quite the same effect as when Brian Blessed does it though.
Nonsense, I'm sure you would make a fine Mark Antony!
... do you know what this means ? ... canberra is a hell-hole of "front-line" naci canibale doct-whores ... dog-eat-dog ... canberra cannibals in virgin-belsen bergen-belsen belconnen cennobels ... a toxic dump of pigeon cryptococcus + psittacosis ... i mean one cannot walk down the street in canberra without being dumped on by a bird or walking over bird feces every step one takes ... an underlying covid-19 cause ... the "drink" aint good ... alcohol virus death - 19 ... co vi d - 19 ... covid-19 ... honey birdette birdshit stores .. i mean it is declasse un-chic and un-sexy ... brian blesseds "dogs of war" is linda lovelace stuff - another clothing range sold at the "honey birdette" stores in the shoppingtown malls ...
@@RMVideos92 ... when the black adder bites him on the asp ... i mean the arse ... after biting him on his raisin nuts ...
"I COULD HAVE FARTED THAT IN!!!" - best line of the entire show, never mind the series!
I can't tell you how much we love to hear Brian Blessed's voice over here in America. And, I don't mean on youtube or television.
Misses snooker hole: "OH CALAMITEEE!"
Love this guy.
He doesn't take himself too seriously and he lives a life of adventure.
Stay Blessed Brian.
I want Brain Blessed in my GPS. "TURN LEFT!" "NOW!"
"You steaming great Pillock, you've missed the turn!"
DRIIIIIIIVE!
you have ARRIVE AT YOUR DESTINATION!!!!!! ALSO.....GORDONS ALIVE!!!!!
No!!!!!! If you keep fucking reversing!!!!!!!! you'll hit the fucking car!!!!!!!!
@@dapaintbrush6965 NOW YOU'VE DONE IT YOU WRINKLED BEGGAR'S BOLLOCKS!
Is it just me or does his whispering sound like David Attenborough's normal voice?
The real question is if a shouting David Attenborough sounds like Brian Blessed.
@@konayasai Plot twist: They're the same person. If they exist in the same room, the universe ends. Might explain why David does documentaries to take his mind off things.
Sounds like Merton in Just a Minute.
I think I've just found the exception to the rule I have about switching off a nature doc not presented by Attenborough
Especially if it's a nature doc about the wolf he befriended in the Himalayas or the orangutan he shared a rowing boat with in Borneo
"Palm Pilot? sounds like a wanking machine!" is the best thing Brian Blessed ever said
I don't think there's a bigger character in the world than Brian.
Somebody needs to make a comedy starring him and Morgan Freeman.
I knew it was coming when he began shushing us and it was STILL hilarious when he exploded! Excellent!
Some people belive in God, some people believe in Atheism, I believe in Brian Blessed.
Gotta love RUclips recommended, see you all in 5 years
The sound of his first cry as a newborn can still be heard echoing in Doncaster hospital to this very day. 😂
What surprised me more than anything else is that BRIAN BLESSED is only 5'9". With that big booming voice and larger than life personality I would have thought he was at least 6' tall.
Brian Blessed whispering is unnatural.
Some say its the last thing you hear before you die.
I knew he'd start shouting. I love him.. xD
The only way that possibly could have been better is if he had done the whole commentary in his King Richard IV costume. This man needs to be on every television show.
I was thinking, "King Richard IV?" But there's only been 3!
Then I remembered Blackadder 😂
I saw him on his recent tour....he was brilliant. At the end of the show he asked for questions and one guy put his hand up and said I haven't got a question but can I give you a hug? I thiink that sums up what people think of him.
Brian Blessed. the man who played Richard IV in Blackadder.
I honestly don't know if its possible not to smile when Brian is introduced.
The only man who can swear and still sound classy.
if my life had a narrator i'd want it to be BRIAN BLESSED
... yo prefiero ian chesterton william russell ... peter fenwick ... cecil parker tym ... patrick macnee ... christopher lee ... peter purves ... ben craze ...
I imagine living with him would be impossible without some crazy madcap adventure taking place on a daily basis.
If the tales he tells are true then you're right
He's the best and always will be, all hail the great Brian Blessed
Blessed be the Blessed!
Brian Blessed was commentating like Sir David Attenborough narrating a nature program then went goes into full pissed off mode. If he ever commentated on a snooker match it would stop numerous times due to people dying from laughter.
How can anyone NOT love this guy?? DID SOMEONE ORDER A LARGE HAM?!?! :D
(Oh dear... Brian's got me doing it too, now! XD )
PETROL! WE'RE RUNNING OUT!!!
@@henrikhyrup3995 I can't remember if that's the same episode where they talked about the death of Thatcher and one guy in a clip mentioned being out of work for 30 years. "Can you imagine? Being out of work for *thirty years*...WHY DON'T YOU TAKE YOUR FINGER OUT, YOU LAZY BASTARD?!"
The man is an international treasure.
okay this guy needs to appear in the marvel cinematic universe
+Ramiro Galletti The next Thanos xD
+Ramiro Galletti Well, he was going to be Odin.
YES
+Thomas Cliff Was. Sad day indeed.
Black Bolt.
It will always be so strange to me that one of his most famous lines, "Gordon's alive", was spoken at such a *normal* volume in the movie.
Yet everyone remembers it as being shouted
We all remember it being shouted
I would follow this man into battle unarmed.
Brian Blessed... King of the World
No... OF THE GALAXY!
NO NO NO!!!!
BRIAN BLESSED EMPEROR OF THE UNIVERSE!
Which is kind of what he was, in the Flash Gordon movie.
this guy makes William Shatner look like Stephen Wright lol
a true legend. DIIIIVVVVEEEE!
!!!!SQUADRON 14, 'D'AAAAAIIIIIVE!!!!
Everything is better with Brian Blessed.
I remember an occasion when Brian Blessed lowered his voice and softly whispered...
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
I thought it just had a big voice personality in a couple of episodes of Blakes7 and I think Spade 1999, but oh heck he can fill a room. A sound engineers nightmare?
Brian Blessed = A true legend! Makes me grin every time I see him :)
He should read "50 Shades of Grey"
Marni Stone He’d make that story more fun to listen to.
There is a video of Gilbert Gottfried reading it which is pretty good.
There's Gilbert Gottfried reading it. That's gold ^_^
He could read the phone book and make me piss myself laughing...
Chiswick! Fresh horses!
beautiful how that gag was written into every episode
... you havent lived ... watch a few other films ... i suggest the avengers film "the superlative seven" and the avengers film "the morning after" ...
I COULD HAVE FARTED THAT IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE GREAT STEAMING PILLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
" I could have farted that in" lol
"ODIN!" Well at least he should have been cast as Odin in the Thor flick, no offense to Sir Anthony Lecter...I mean Hopkins.
and hagrid for harry potter,
I wish I had a big booming commanding voice like that.
I could listen to Brian saying anything and never gets bored
He must get through a hell of a lot of microphones. "Ah Mr Blessed, microphone broken again?" "YES MY DARLING! I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT'S ALWAYS HAPPENING TO ME?". :)
"May I have a look at it?"
"BE MY GUEST. HERE YOU ARE"
"Thank you..... TESTING, ONE TWO, TESTING... it seems to be working fine for me."
"GOOD HEAVENS, HOW DID YOU MANAGE THAT? I COULD HAVE SWORN IT WAS BROKEN"
"Here you go, you have another try."
"MUCH OBLIGED..... TESTING, ONE TWO, TESTING... SEE? I CAN'T HEAR ANY DIFFERENCE AT ALL."
"Hmmmm, how strange."
How has he not played the Ghost of Christmas Present in a Christmas Carol?!
I've loved Brian Blessed since I was a kid and watched Flash Gordon. Love his voice and his sense of humor.
has the one of the best voices of all time along with tom baker
I'd consider Brian Blessed, Tom Baker, Sir Patrick Stewart, Jeremy Irons and (of course) the late Sir Christopher Lee the "Great Quintet" of contemporary voices of Britain.
Everything is dialed up to 11 when Brian Blessed walks in the room.
And things that were already dialed up to 11 are dialed up to 121 when Brian walks in.
I'm sorry, you can try to put your tele on mute and you can still hear Brain Blessed on 11.
Every time something bad happens from now on I'm going to yell "Calamity! Cry Havoc and Let Slip the Dogs of War!!" - cheers Brian, you absolute giant amongst men, I needed a new war-cry, that'll do nicely!
Brian Blessed - The man the beard the voice the absolute legend. 😊
imagine him on your satnav!
Brian blessed as Tom Bombadil!
WHAT A LEGEND!!!!😝
On the sad day that David Attenborough is no longer with us, Brian Blessed should take over.
_'The lion creeps carefully through the brush, silently approaching the antelope _*_AND THE DOGS FROM HELL ARE UNLEASHED ON THE ANTELOPE... IT HAS IT RIGHT BY THE GIZZARDS AND OH WOE FOR THE ANTELOPE!!!_*
Is there anyone who has ever enjoyed being himself more than Brian Blessed? (Ian McKellen comes to mind, but he doesn't have anywhere near the volume.)
Possibly Patrick Stewart?
@@cair124 An excellent candidate.
I can't look at him without imagining "WHO LOCKED THE BLOODY DOOR?!"
my hero brian blessed god bless him
Perfect! He sets us all up. We all know it's coming but it's STILL HILARIOUS! I roar with laughter every time I see this!
SCRAMMBLED!
THAT IS THE REAL ENGLISH VOICE
Any time I need a pick-me-up I come and watch this video. Brian Blessed is amazing.
To whoever put this recording in a custom speechbank for Worms Armageddon, you are, like Mr Blessed, an authentic legend!
he should be commentating at the crucible at this years world championship
+Ch0plet you would actually him in the commentary box
I want to see this guy do commentary for golf just once
😂😂😂 I know I'll be watching.
Oh hells yes, either the US Open or the British Open.
Best commentary I have ever heard. He should do it for every sport
I think that "CRY HAVOC AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR!" is up there with "GORDON'S ALIVE?!" in the collection of lines that Brian Blessed makes epic.
That man needs no microphone.
... yes but he lacks enunciation + projection ...
i really wish he did the snooker love the game he would appeal to the masses
Brian is one of my favourite characters. The idea of getting him to do snooker commentary is inspired
"I COULD HAVE FARTED THAT IN"
Please, please, please add Brian to Game of Thrones.
+Mr Despondency If not for his age he would've made an even better Robert Baratheon than Mark Addy
"YOU KNOW NOTHING, JOHN SNOW, YOU GREAT TIT!!!" --Brian Blessed in game of thrones.
+92Beyo Yes! He would have been perfect, just a shame he would have been too old for the role
+Mr Despondency I'm still hoping they cast him as Wyman Manderly
Only if he was 20 years younger. I could oif see him as Tywin Lannister.
Gordon's Alive?
Ha ha. Kirsty looked mortified. “Thank god I said he was a nice man”. Nice man, and a nice reaction.
Good lord I wish Brian Blessed would record a Christmas album.
"'Cause Santa Clause is coming.....SO GET TO SLEEP!"
Is there a way for me to set my autocorrect to always make BRIAN BLESSED be in all caps?
Now I'm guessing Brian Blessed's mobile phone has caps lock enabled, and it can't be disabled.
+EPM That's only fitting since the man himself LIVES in all caps.
Brian Blessed a true living legend, once punched a polar bear.
In his youth he loved boxing and claims to have sparred with the Dalai Lama.[18] Blessed has attempted to climb Mount Everest three times,[19] attaining heights of 28,200 feet (8,600 m) in 1993 and 25,200 feet (7,700 m) in 1996, but without reaching the summit.[20] He has, however, reached the tops of Mount Aconcagua in Argentina and Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. He is also the oldest man to trek to the North Magnetic Pole on foot,[21] and has undertaken an expedition into the jungles of Venezuela, during which he survived a plane crash.
And he was in, Robin Hood Prince of thevies, boss nass in star wars episode 1. The nexcross King in Wizzard vs aliens. unbeatable Banzuke, and ledgends of oz
Are we forgetting his acting role?
He once did a performance of King Lear for the Guildford Acting Company. with his daughter, that is.
Brian eventually collapsed on stage, then recieved medical attention. 20 minutes afterwards, he went back onto the stage to complete the performance. Probably doing it to finish the show, AND maybe for his daughter, what a lovely father.
Yes, Brian Blessed is, what we call in Britain, an absolute legend.
i want brian blessed as my driving instructor
Brian Blessed should be in everything.
I,ve just found that Brian Blessed shares the same birthday as me, fantastic - Oh, John Lennon was also born on the 9th October as well
Damn! I'm 2 days out - 7th October. Mine include.........Vladimir Putin and Simon Cowell. Hmm......don't think I'll bother telling people that lol
Pirosbor I feel very sorry for you
Do you suppose if we asked him nicely he'd drop by and do the Superbowl one year?
Brian Blessed is national treasure.
So full of energy a man with a big heart
you know how some movies have the "narrator" talking to the audience? what if there were a movie with mr.blessed doing esencially this joke for 2 hours?, well 1 hours and half i would not like to make him responsible for making people break their rib with laughter
I could have farted that in😂😂😂,
My money says he definitely could.
Grampy Rabbit!!
When BRIAN BLESSED was in Blackadder as Richard IV, he did use a quiet voice sometimes. That was much scarier.
YOU GREAT STEAMING PILLOCK!!!
