I'm glad they let him speak. Brilliant storyteller
I wasn't aware of him until the last 10 years but he is amazing. Such a quiet force. I love his comedic side like in Vicious.
Ditto!
Very few people deserve it more than him!
His list of performances is STAGGERING!
One of the Greatest Shakespeareans EVER.
I was first introduced to Sir Derek when he appeared in "I, Claudius" and I've been a huge fan ever since. He can do it all, from drama to comedy and everything in between. God bless him.
Yes I Claudius!!!
Best television show EVER. And yes, he is a sublime actor.
Brilliant performance!
He was fabulous!
He was simply incredible in I, Claudius, master class in acting.
Just Derick Jacobi being himself is like watching a play in itself. He truly is an astonishing actor.
Also he is my favourite master from doctor who
I had a friend tell me that there is a Big Finish audio Dr Who story with both him and Michelle Gomez. I have got to find that!
"Learning, learning, learning." This is why he's one of the all time greats. Because any actor worth their salt will tell you, it's the learning from your betters, the inspiration from their guidance, that is truly the greatest gift and experience.
As a kid, I first saw him in I, Claudius. I have watched everything I could of his ever since. He is such a fabulous actor. And then he showed up on Doctor Who which was mind blowing.!❤
He has his own Doctor Who spin off audio series now, playing The Master. He’s outstanding in that role. Can be quite frightening. Great actor.
I could listen to Derek Jacobi for hours on end shares stories of his life and career---it's so obvious how he has treasured every single moment. And it is so refreshing to hear an actor of his stature and caliber speak with such love and warmth and gratitude about his mentor, God, aka Sir Laurence Olivier. Congratulations and erll done, Sir Derek! ❤👏👏👏
Derek is so endearing, and his talent is boundless.
Derek jacobi is one of my favorite british actors. One role that is my fVorite is his narrator in kenneth branaghs henry V.
In my opinion Sir Derek Jacobi is as great an actor as Sir Laurence Olivier. Mesmerizing. They are MY Gods of acting.God bless Sir Derek Jacobi
I just received a signed pucture of him as the master for christmas
Beautiful story, speech, thank you and man who got his dreams.
I had the pleasure to meet Sir Derek a couple of times and he's gracious and lovely.
My all time favourite actor. Wonderful to see him receive this very well deserved award 👏
First thing I saw Derek Jacobi in was the BBC Production of Hamlet in 1972 and I have loved his performances ever since. I think he was born to play Hamlet, Cadfael and Claudius in I Claudius. However, outside of Shakespeare and classical acting, I think one of his greatest pieces of acting was as the Master in Doctor Who when his character suddenly realises he isn't the kindly Professor, but indeed the Master. No words were uttered just a couple of minutes of silent transformation. I was transfixed. It was a an absolute sublime piece of acting and I wish they could have kept him for a whole season. I would have watched no matter what. About bleeding time he got this award!!!
I totally agree on his Master, it was awesome for how little I saw of him.
I was so angry they used him for just one time, because he was always a dream pick, because I knew he would smash it.
My mum whom was lukewarm on Doctor Who loved him, and felt he was wasted by the show, and he deserved better.
I saw him in plenty of roles and loved him in them. One of my favourites from the start.
I fell in love with Derek Jacobi when PBS in LA (where I lived and still do) transmitted I Claudius. I was a teenager then, mesmerized by his portrayal, specially his little details of the stuttering and facial tick!
i believe that most in the states were introduced to he and his talents with i, claudius
he was brilliant
Sir Derek Jacobi.Your goodness shone like a beacon in that speech.God Bless You ALWAYS
Love Derek Jacobi! His storytelling was brilliant!
"Is", He is alive.
Oh bless you Derek. Well done love.
I've heard of Sir Derek for many years, of course, but I was never able to be a fan of the sorts of stages he reigned on. I re-discovered him first on the TV show 'Vicious" with Sir Ian - I personally thought it was a riot - very 'stagey' but a hoot to see these two play off each other. Very shortly afterwards, I discovered Last Tango which was probably mid-first season at this point and I thought his portrayal of Alan Buttershaw was sublime - I grew to love all of the characters, even the wonderful Anne Reid playing the usually awful Celia. I know for some, the fact he is only known by many for these later roles will disappoint, but I'd like to think Sir Derek is proud of that - to have that level of success and fame at the age he did in a whole new medium must be secretly satisfying for him. When you think of people like Dench, Smith, Stewart, McKellan, Jacobi, Mirren - it's incredible to think that we celebrate actors as they grow older, arguably almost all of those incredible talents have had more success in their 60's/70's and 80's than ever before. I don't think we will see the likes again and we should saviour them whilst we have them.
If any actor deserved this then it is Derek 👏👏👏
Wonder actor and great person.
He's the best and my favourite incarnation of the master on doctor who
Brother cadfel . Wonderful work .
Such a joy to see the magnificent Anne Reid! A legend indeed. Sir Derek Jacobi is surely one of the finest actors of his or any other generation, he excels in everything he does. I had the immense privilege of seeing him play Hamlet back in the day and it was an utterly spellbinding performance. Such well deserved recognition. He really is a national treasure.
One of the best British actors ever, real Sir!
An actual legend.
Classy, classy man with a most gentle soul. Congratulation, Sir!
This is a wonderful speech by the great Sir Derek Jacobi. I am amazed how long a time he was given to speak and thank goodness he was given it because his tales of his youthful days with Sir Laurence Olivier were touching and funny. Congratulations Sir Derek.
He is such a gem! 🥰
SIR DEREK ONE OF THE BEST!!!!!
A star with a character actor’s resume. And one who brings star-quality acting to even the smallest part he plays. He delivers the prologue in Kenneth Branagh’s “Henry V,” the last words of Professor Yana in “Doctor Who,” or the signature stammer of the title role of “I, Claudius” with equal energy and gravity.
Dame Ann surely and Sir DJ is FANTABULOSXXXXXXXXXXXXX
He's a real sweetheart! Great, great, great actor 😊
An absolutely brilliantly gifted actor. - and a very nice chap.
A wonderful thing which Sir Derek keeps doing in =this speech=.
Whenever he talks about Shakespeare, "Hamlet"... "Henry VIII"... Look at his face and tongue: he keeps 'mirroring' the late Sir John Gielgud. BRILL!~
Congratulations!
I was sharing a dressing room with Cardinal Wolseley 😂
It's hard to imagine any other actor playing Brother Cadfael in that BBC series or Claudius in I, CLAUDIUS. It was a blast to see him play the part of the over-the-hill actor on US TV's FRASIER. Congratulations, Sir Derek!
He's a very tatalented actor.he was awsome in the series last tango in Halifax 🎉❤
I first came across him narrating children's stories in the 80s audio magazine "Storyteller", then on to the Chorus for Brannagh's Production of "Henry V" (his "O for a muse of fire" is amazing) and of course as Brother Cadfael.
this inspires me to see more of his work, i've only seen him in doctor who and good omens
he plays hateable characters so, so well, such a fantastic actor
Brilhante! Parabéns Sir. Derek Jacobi! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely adore this man. He is an absolute world treasure. Cheers and thanks so much sir!
For me. One day, I found a DVD copy of Cadfael 'The Devil's Novice', inside a charity shoppe.
I absolutely fell in love. Then, online, I found 'Vicious'. An amazingly versatile actor and man.
I would love to be able to meet Sir Derek. Just once.
That same charity shoppe, I found a 3-DVD collection of Jeremy Brett's 'Sherlock Holmes', -the final season.
Why is it that we have shite for actors here in the states?
What an awesome man !
Love him since I saw him in the first series I was hooked on: I Claudius, in the seventies.
Excellent actor, great screen presence; a well deserved award.
Absolutely superb performer, and a treasure to the world.
Sir Derek Jacobi Congrats on your Lifetime Achievement Award!!! Well Deserved!!!!
what he said and how he said it should be mandatory for all actors to LEARN! .... Long live Sir Dereck Jacobi!!!
An absolute sweetheart.
What is it Sir Derek says in french?? I've been trying to work it out for the past 30 minutes XD. Also congrats to him he is the best
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ we can achieve anything when we work hard
I Claudius❤
Siân Phillips should have presented him the award.
Ooohhh i die Horatio loathsome, deep-throated, asthmatic gasp 😂
None of the guys mentioned however have anything on these guys though as stage stage performers the guys I’ve already mentioned
Who is the wooden tango doll presenting this?
In my mind of the best British actors up there with dame Judy dench, sir Ian mckellen when it comes to theatre work, maybe not as good as them but still very great along with the guy who played darth sidious in my option four of the best Shakespearean or theatre actors of our time but that is debatable since their are so many great actors with great performances and an good mention is sir Patrick Stewart all great British actors
I saw him in Bristol as hamlet he was cr..ap
Although all of these guys have compitition from people like sir Anthony Hopkins who is iconic and great in his own right, gary oldman who has been described by Hugh jackman as one of the best actors of all time along with Daniel day Lewis who is probable like top methods actor next to heath leathers joker, and one top notch top five actors ever, and harry redmane who has won a few top awards for being great also, oh yes and gary oldmand portrayed of winston Churchill was his best acting with Dracula even when he was drunk and wasn’t at his best
No body however does dialogue in front of the camera like Anthony Hopkins who is charismatic and very clever even when adding emotion and very physchological and smart, a guy that makes things believable like how he played mr ford and spoke to his fellow actors is powerful and clever and believable, or Hannibal’s lecter his best portrayal of a person of that nature is chilling and gets into your mind even though it’s over the top, and people don’t really act like that in reality but is still sinister like west world mr ford even when he’s not trying to act sinister is very clever in my mind, an honorary mention is Charles dance of game of thrones is another excellent film and stage actor worth mentioning as another who is up there with todays greats, he can play a villan, an intimidating one and could have played a character in James Bond like his boss or an assassin or dark rival henchman
Film and stage are very different mediums.
The Metatron
Another is the guy who played the voice of scar who is one of the best British voice actors of all time in the lion king and fro lol from the hunchback of Norte dame, however none of those guys can compare to James earl jones or darth Vader, the most iconic voice actor of all time, other mentions of recognition are Christopher lee, of the hammer house of horrors series as Dracula again and Saruman, count cooks and he has the record for most sword fights in film history, maybe not as great or iconic as the others but still very iconic still and John hurt from alien and Harry Potter a more famous role of his, Sherlock Holmes or grand moth Tarkington was a famous actor and a personal friend of lee and obi wan kanobi or old Ben kanobi was also in a lot of films
the future of the spain:isabel ayuso-santiago abascal president.
