Tim Minchin at a loss for words?!?! I have no words for that :)
Except, Grats man! You deserve it.
Most of his acceptance speech is spent asking people to support a venue and recommending other people. Just one more reason to love this man.
It is amazing how a genius like him is so humble for what he does. Makes him even more adorable. And suitable for the teenage market ;)
Tim Minchin, the brilliant wordsmith who bends words to his will in his music, all but speechless here? Technically, he was "speechless" because he did not write an acceptance speech in advance. That is surprising, because he is always prepared. His university commencement speeches, for example, are works of art peppered with bon mots, plays on words, homophones, parallel structure, and more. For him to arrive without a prepared acceptance speech must mean either that he thought he was not going to win or thought that it would suggest an unseemly confidence that he WOULD win.
To see Tim Minchin and Lin-Manuel Miranda on the same stage brings me great joy. Both are brilliant artists; educated, analytical thinkers; men loyal to the wives and children they love; and compassionate individuals who care about social justice. If you're not familiar with all that they have done, particularly Tim with autism support groups and Lin-Manuel with hurricane recovery in Puerto Rico, take a few minutes to read about their efforts.
Never seen Tim so flustered
I'm not sure if I'm more jealous of Lin for getting to hug Tim or of Tim for getting to hug Lin, haha. Awe, Tim I'm so happy for you, you really deserve this!
Just thirty five days until you'll be accepting your Tony! 🎉🎉🏆🎉🎉 "Fucking Tony," ah? 😉
Congratulations Tim;D
Congratulations Mr. Minchin!
Jovi Levi :3 Dr
Congrats Tim!
Having seen Groundhog Day at the Old Vic in London, I'm not surprised at all at Tim getting this award! It was such a great seamless production, the songs were amazing and the combination of acting singing and (even some magic!) was amazing!!! Well done Time and cast :)
Way to go, tim!!!!
Tim at a loss for words... You saw it here first.
He was so not prepared for this. Completely caught with his pants down. Really happy for the guy, well deserved.
What are you doing wearing shoes?
And the suit.. not his natural environment.
Congratulations. Hard not to fall in love with you and your work.
Bloody marvellous!!
What do we have to do as a species to deserve a collaboration between Lin Manuel Miranda and Tim Minchin? Whatever it is, it should be our next goal.
It brought tears to my old American eyes. So proud of you, Tim!
Congratulations, Tim! So happy for you.
So so happy for my favourite comedian! Congratulations!
Yasssss sir.
Your humility is disarming and real Mr Minchin. A precious gift among your many gifts. I write this simply to say...thank you and respect.
Tim, congrats! I have been looking forward to this musical for two years (was devastated when opening day got pushed off). I'm so thrilled to see the "officials" see its brilliance.
Congratulations Tim! I've been listening to the soundtrack on a loop the last week. Bravo, Sir!
There’s a joke in there somewhere.
Congrats Tim! I absolutely love your work man!
Congratulations Tim! You are just all the awesomeness that life should be in one kooky Australian! I wish you all the best in the future!
I love Tim!!!
OH MY GOSH YAY. CONGRATULATIONS!👍👏👏👌😁
on another note, I definitely wasn't expecting to see Lin-Manuel Miranda 😍
incredible things, some else.. Hahahah! even when you are nervouse are funny
Congrats tim!
Congrats Dude!!!!!
Congratulations....time for drinking white wine in the sun.
Why? It's not Christmas! 😉😜
True....but I suspect that Tim enjoys wine year round. Ge dud request a glass during his acceptance speech.
True! True!
PS I was just teasing about the Christmas stuff... Your comment was very sweet!
I suspected as much....but sometimes it is hard to know when interacting online. ;-)
Yay Tim! Love you!
*congratulations truly well deserved, YOUR A LIVING LEGEND!*
Congratulations TIM! you are a musical genius (pardon the pun)! I love your work with the heritage orchestra and Matilda! You deserved it and more!
Well deserved Tim♥️
Good for you, young man. Well done.
What glorious news to wake up to on my Groundhog Monday! CONGRATS TIM! Now go grab that well earnt wine and cheese 😆😆😆
Thanks also to Sarah and the kids for being on the rollercoaster ride through it all too 💞
Congratulations, Tim! Seeing your sprint for the stage and the hug, I almost teared up because I admire you and Lin so much and you're a wonderful inspiration. Best of luck for the Tonies! I want this to tie with Dear Evan Hansen 💜
Nailed it.
Congrats to Tim, the cast and crew, and everyone. I must say, that was the best bad award acceptance I have ever heard - the real deal.
Congratulation! Made my day! Please come to Portugal!
Just calculated how many times Tim said "incredible" during the Olivier Awards this time...
Smashed it bro!!
Congrats, you beautiful music making monster. I have been a fan of you for a few years now and your music is constantly on my mind. If I ever can travel to a place that shows your shows, I will. But bring them to Latin America, please! Ok rant over. Congrats man!
It's a hell of an achievement to have your actually-new musical beat goddamn Dreamgirls!
"... well not anymore" ahahahah 😂
Bahahaha, that talk is so you :)
Well done mate!
Onya Tim
Lins laugh at 1:30 makes me cry omg
👏👏👏💕💕💕
super hyper kilo mega giga congrats!
I haven't watched Groundhog Day, but Matilda was genial. I never liked musicals, but Tim Minchin makes me want to watch it.
This is late, but congratulations, me & my girlfriend has loved you since Thank You God!
More Groundhog referances.. like repeating the start again :P
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy
Please do get a camera backstage! And also frontstage and release a DRM-free movie that we can buy and watch maybe?
For fuck sake! He's human and he can get nerveous like us mortals.
Take your canvas bags...
He has become a tomato
notfication
It's staggering how much the added name of "Mastercard" cheapens the award.
Still no HD... congrats anyway
im not sure if id rather meet tim or lin 😕😕😂😂
Each is a true genius. No exaggeration. To meet and talk with each would be on my bucket list.
