Michael Gambon on Jeremy Clarkson getting sacked from the BBC. “He didn’t deserve it, he just punched someone in the mouth and that was it. So, I think it’s ridiculous.” lol what a legend
He kept a straight face while recording a scene in Harry Potter where he put a fart machine in Harry’s sleeping bag and kept setting it off between his lines 🤣🤣
People don’t say that much often but Jeremy is an excellent interviewer. I mean all the jokes and skits aside he handles his guests very gracefully you forget for a second he’s doing all the silly stuff with May and Hammond.
Honestly, after watching the trio so much and mostly remembering them for their sillier moments and big adventures, it's easy to forget that they are all three quite genuinely talented at a lot of what they do. There's a reason no other hosts quite match up, both on Top Gear and other shows, because they bring a lot more to the table than you realize unless you compare them to others in the same field.
A lot of people didn’t like this segment of the show back in the day but Clarkson countered them by saying many of the people he spoke to about the show asked who the next guest was. I think that’s part of the appeal of top gear and why it so successful.. kids love it because of the silly jokes and the cars and maybe dads loved it for that reason. But mums and other people who aren’t particularly interested in cars can watch it for the guest segment and the jokes throughout. The news segments for me growing up as a kid were really the funniest parts even if I didn’t get a lot of the jokes. Then as a kid who was into cars and could at one point list almost any cars specs loved the car reviews too. It’s because of top gear that I think I was so into cars. This show will forever hold a special place in my heart. Sure Clarkson comes across as an ass at times but that’s what made him famous. If you really watch him he seems to be a genuinely good bloke underneath all the bombastic behaviour and rude mannerisms. His documentaries on the British army commandos and where he talks about the death of his father in one of the shows really does show his softer and perhaps more noble side. He does a lot of charity work for help for heroes which gives me a lot of the respect I have for him.
You’re right on about his interviews. The one with Cruise was as relaxed as I’ve ever seen two celebrities flogging a movie . Cruise and Diaz genuinely looked like they were having fun with an old friend. “Why don’t you have ear hair?”
@Fast2009 journalist asked him a stupid question so he gave a stupid answer. even funnier because the guy took him entirely seriously, and he said he did it because "it made his eyes water" LOL
"Look at that poor old man." He caught me so off guard with that comment about his own driving that I just about died laughing. Best interview I have seen on this show.
Hilarious; 04:50 Gambon: I used to be a homosexual, but I was forced to give it up. Reporter: Why was that? Gambon: Because it made my eyes water. ROFL
RIP Michael Gambon, it's immensely difficult to see your childhood heroes die as you grow up - but we must continue to have fun and enjoy life for all its virtues as I'm sure Mr. Gambon would've encouraged being the magical individual he was. It will be one of my life's biggest regrets not seeing him act live, but his contributions to theatre and children's imaginations shall live on forever - a priceless man.
sweet and very funny:) also like how good clarkson usually is at interviewing people, mix of maing fun of ppl and making them welcome and laugh with everyone. bbc has to realize what they let go lol. kinda loved hearing james may tell reporters after Clarkson was sacked "Clarkson, Hammond and I are a pair and will move somewhere else.
Michael Gambon is like James May (with his engineering mind set), Jeremy Clarkson (with his devilish humor), & Richard Hammond (with his driving prowess) all roled into one person. Love it.
Greatest interview ever on Top Gear. Rest in peace Michael Gambon 🙏 unfortunately for the world we probably will never see the likes of you again. Legend of a man ❤️
One of the best and funniest interviews there is; just listening to Gambon's replies is worth watching this clip. Thank you Michael Gambon, you were brilliant and you will be warmly remembered!
This man was my childhood growing up. I remember looking up to Dumbledore as a kid and how wise he was. Wands up for this legend 🪄 rip sir michael gambon
Lovely gentleman, always very kind to me when I knew him. Even invited me to visit backstage one time to chat when he was in No Man's Land in the West End. And I was only a bloke who walked his kids' wee dog! I was so sad to find he has passed.
Just heard the very sad news that Sir Michael has died. To Potterheads, he's a legend with his heroics inside the Ministry of Magic. To petrolheads, even more so with his heroics on the final corner.
One of my friends was an extra in Amazing Grace and he said Gambon swore like a sailor. Not that he saw him bollocking anyone but he said he once walked past him chatting to someone else and was really turning the air blue.

Look at poor old man 7.10 always makes me laugh legend sir Gambon R.I.P
saw this on twitter mate, Rest easy
I have told the story from the show before that is for sure@@Snipe_the_Hype
Never miss the opportunity to get social media validation from someones death, do ya?
@@Christian-rn1ur Sharing memories is hardly seeking social media validation, he will live forever in our hearts.
"How old are you now?"
"28."
Don't look a day over 20, Sir Gambon.
Indeed
And died with 82! RIP Sir Michael!
@@henriquesousa3348😢
I'd forgotten how good this second show with Michael Gambon was - superb! RIP.
@@henriquesousa3348The guy has made himself immortal. Love him.
Holy crap he's funny. I'm impressed he can say all that with a completely straight face.
Pete Brown It's because he is Michael Gambon
I mean he was literally in Ali G Indahouse
Irish sense of humour 🤣
Probably why he's such a brilliant actor
He kept a straight face while recording a scene in Harry Potter where he put a fart machine in Harry’s sleeping bag and kept setting it off between his lines 🤣🤣
this was 2006. he was 65. Now he's 80.
Still a legend of the track.
what are you talking about he clearly said he was 28!
Dumbledore
and now jeremy is 60 plus that is insane
Because of this comment alone I feel 15 years older, and it hurts
Huge respect to gambon though
Damn, rip
Well now we know how Dumbledore could get to the Ministry so quickly when Voldemort attacked.
Well actually the way dumbledore got to the ministry so quickly because he used floo powder
P.S I know this is a joke, don't r/woosh me.

Who needs magic when you can drive like that?
Whenever he starts driving, everyone just runs away for their lives
Michael Gambon just has so much grandpa energy. The kinda guy who whispers a joke to you that only you can hear, winks, and then smirks to himself.
No.
Yes@@whitedragon9731
That description makes me miss my opa so much

He has to be one of the best guest interviewers ever every interview is so funny and he always brings the best out of his guests

But that shouldn't be a surprised since Clarkson had his own talk show back in 1998 until 2000.

Gambon is hilarious! "I used to be a homosexuàl, but I gave it up." Bahahahaha!!
it's funny because dumbledore went gay for grindelwald
@@abi_abdurrahman And Sir Ian McKellen would have been perfect to play Dumbledore because he's gay as well.
Bro I’m was laughing 😂 too hard at this bit
@Fast2009 journalist asked him a stupid question so he gave a stupid answer. even funnier because the guy took him entirely seriously, and he said he did it because "it made his eyes water" LOL
As a homosexual, I near pissed myself laughing! 😂
“Don’t pity the dead harry, pity the living and above all, those who live without love”- rip Sir Michael Gambon.
That hits so close to home. Makes his passing more heartbreaking
And pity those who can't clear the gambon corner.
"Look at that poor old man." He caught me so off guard with that comment about his own driving that I just about died laughing. Best interview I have seen on this show.
"due to the unique way the bbc is funded"
that was straight up brilliant
the pen doesnt work.''
I love his face after he says "So I just tell lies". I looove his humor, this interview cracks me up every time
Hilarious; 04:50
Gambon: I used to be a homosexual, but I was forced to give it up.
Reporter: Why was that?
Gambon: Because it made my eyes water.
ROFL
"reporter" gtfo
what does this mean? I don't understand hahaha
@Magpie bruh Michael was talking about a reporter who interviewed him about playing oscar wilde, he was not referring to jeremy
@@anthroism26mc he wasn't talking about jeremy luv
jk rowling: write it down!!! write it down!!!!
A man for the ages. RIP Sir Gambon.
"DIDYOUPUTYOURNAMEIN THE GOBBABBAAFIRE!?"
Dumbledore asked calmly.
@@scsutton1 I was about to comment that 😂
I could listen to Micheal Gambon tell stories all night. What a hoot! R.I.P.
one of the funniest men on the planet.Could you imagine him with Robin Williams?
Rest in Peace, Sir Michael Gambon. An absolute legend. His legacy lives on.

Absolutely! That's what he'd wants us to do!
Dear Top Gear, I'd love to have him back again until every single corner of the track is named after him :D

Just call it the Gambon track, with a lot of Gambon corners... And Michael Straights. :D

Gambon was such a legend on and off the stage. We'll be lucky if we ever get an actor of this quality again. RIP.

One of the funniest and most pleasant interviews I've seen on Top Gear.
This has always been my favourite Top Gear interview.
RIP, Sir Michael. What a genuinely decent, self-effacing, funny human you were!
We'll miss you.
that man is legend
Gambon you legend
It's great how Gambon just always has the time of his life on Top Gear
He said he hated interviews, but this seemed more like two friends trading BS.
@@billwatkins8227 Sad that we'll never see something like this again, rest in peace.

A true legend of the track.
Lmao Michael Gambon...pure legend.
THE BEST Top Gear interview EVER!!! I hope, if I do get up to this age that I can retain my youth as much as this man. What a LEGEND!!!
RIP Sir Michael Gambon (October 19, 1940 - September 27, 2023), aged 82
You will be remembered as a legend.
I remember this episode like it was yesterday. My greatest sympathies to those times and those legends.
"Did you manage it?"
"Easy"
Legend
I love Michael Gambon, he's so effortlessly funny hahaha
What a guy to go on the town with! Magical sense of humour. It made my eyes water🤣🤣🤣🤣!!
"We nearly killed a singing detective!"
"About time someone did."
R.I.P. Sir Michael. ❤❤❤
"look at that poor old man" xD
this guy is awesome
This man was my childhood growing up. I remember looking up to Dumbledore as a kid and how wise he was. Wands up for this legend 🪄 rip sir michael gambon
what a legend!!
What a sport michael Gambon is. I thoroughly enjoyed this segment. Great sense of humor.
Just heard the news of Sir Michael's passing. Shocked and stunned.
Here right after the news about his death got released. Such a gem of man.
May he Rest in Peace
Sir Michael has crossed the final line after 82 years. Quite a long lap, for sure. Every cut, corner and line worth watching. R.I.P. good Sir.
What a charismatic wise man he was Rest In Peace😢

He had a great sense of humour. R.I.P Sir Michael Gambon. Sadly missed but never be forgotten 😢
He looks like he acted through the whole interview, legend
Sir Michael Gambon, charismatic, funny, intelligent and incredibly humble, you shall be missed !
Jeremy - “How old are you now if that’s not a very rude question?”
Michael - “28”
Rest in Peace Sir Michael Gambon, you will always be 28 years old to us😢
Michael Gambon in THE CASUAL VACANCY serie . Incredible, he's an excelent actor. Second season please Gambon. Looking forward to watch. 😍
Golden moments from a man who will be missed......RIP Michael Gambon
One of my favorite actors and favorite episodes. Alas, each one of us has our day. Good bye, Old Boy!
He should do a standup act one day :)
+NGELO9657 He does, its called acting....
+Arthur Yagami Imbecile. He's talking about stand up comedy.
Yavor Chomonev Blow me, buddy.
0neofthem Woooow, how original, you sure showed me!
no. stand up actors are funny on their own. gambon relied a lot on jeremy asking questions to which he could give funny replies.
Gambon is such a legend.. seems like a really genuine and funny bloke as well
"Did you manage it?"
"EASY"
😂😂🤣🤣
Laughed out loud at "Sir Michael Follow-Through!"
gambon is the only guest to make Jeremy crack up like that, absolutely classic
Gambon is my favorite SIARPC. He's so charismatic, it's astounding how he can play into the crowd without even trying.
Going to miss this utter legend of an actor and master of comedy ❤️
RIP Sir Michael Gambon you were an absolute legend you will sorely be missed
great sense of humour
Oh man, best interview ever. This guy is a class act.
There's a demon behind Jeremy at 5:30
+AdamHH11 Quite scary!
Lol
MusicianAdam oh shit I see it that is scurry. Prob just reflections in glasses but still that is creeptastic
And just after a brunette with big chubby tits
Give this man a statue
5 seconds quicker and he went wide on his corner. I loved watching both his interviews. Funny as anything.
I think this is the best interview top gear's ever had.
i love the look on Gambon's face at 4:13 when he looks so innocent then starts out with that wicked smile...
Here to cheer myself up after hearing the sad news of Michael Gambon's death.
RIP
Sir Michael Gambon was an absolute Legend. He just exuded fun and not really taking anything too seriously. Great guy, very sad loss. RIP Sir.

Michael McIntyre and sir Gambon! Two of the top three interviews of all time!
