I'm not British, but Sir Ian Mackellen is a treasure for me as well. He is a genuine gentleman with capital letters
Johnny Smallcock and his vile tasting toffees
How do you feel after being to bigoted? Did you get a pay rise? A nicer house? Did daddy finally love you?
You don't have to be British for that. I am Turkish and he is a treasure for me too.
Agreed and he's really funny.
Sir Ian's voice is so calming and engaging. It's a thrill listening to him talk about anything.
June Asiimwe he could read the phone book and make it sound amazing😂
@@corgisrule21 his audio books or Sherlock Holmes are AMAZING!!!!
@@abbyfairbrother6057 Have you seen the BBC show where he plays a 90 year old Sherlock who is losing his memory?
@@folkloreofbeing no, but I'll have to check it out.
It really is. Love seeing interviews with him 🙌🏽
So cute how they kept calling each other darling and love. Love those two!
LOL! And the ass-pat at the start! XD
Jesus is God Sir this is a Wendy’s
Jonasftw. Completely agreed. Sir Ian and Alan are lovely guys.
Jesus is a lie. Go to your church and be miserable there.
@Jesus is God You left out all the best parts!
Genesis 32:30 - “… I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”
Contradicted by...
John 1:18 - “No man hath seen God at any time…”
And let’s not forget the man in the sky told us to act accordingly unto:
1 Samuel 15:3 - “This is what the Lord Almighty says ... 'Now go and strike Amalek and devote to destruction all that they have. Do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.”
Incase you haven’t caught up:
Gay = Okay
Jesus = Great Ape
Killing Women and Infants = Bad
Sir Ian is so lovely. I love how Alan’s interview changed to be more casual and less smutty than usual. It’s like two friends chewing the fat
The title says that Ian McKellen discusses being gay in the 60, and he doesn't he barely does a 2 seconds comment in the 10 minutes video.
Yeah, a bit disappointing. But it's about luring you in...
jeflynnenut what the literal fuck does that have to do with wanting to hear about Sir Ian’s life experiences during his early years? Wanting to hear about something that’s in the Title and Description is pretty normal for most viewers you weirdo.
Thanks, man! That particular topic caught my interest but I'll just click off the video then. Thanks for the heads up.
@jeflynnenut - YIPES! LOL ...
It's EXACTLY like his prostate cancer story. He mentions it for 2 seconds and it becomes the title
I love Ian McKellen's personality.

@@anonymous20220 he only pats his close friends’ bum. stop being triggered over little things 😒
So do I
I love Ian, I watch his interviews multiple times. He's so nice to watch. So funny and charismatic.
Mandy Le: I love Ian, too.....I just recently "found" him on an Episode of 'Who Do You Think You Are?' (full Ep is on YTube). He is so endearing, learning of relatives he never met in person. If you haven't seen it, you should check it out -
Cymro Brandy - Please send link to the sources that back up your claims.
Thats sir to you
Have you watched vicious? It's on RUclips
Lies again? Gay Girls
Wait just a damn minute...........where's the scarf?!?!?!
I thought there was something missing
Real title: Ian McKellen Discuss Being Gay in The 60's for ten seconds.
30 seconds actually.
@@stevenkies802 😜
He talked about cancer more than he did the 60s ha ha
old gay and middle aged gay have nice chat
So 2 guys talking
^debatable
@@vashnanerada8757 i'm gay mate, it's a joke
@@vashnanerada8757 yeah it's fun u should try it some time
@@michaelthomson1855 didnt know it was a choice. I'm sure some people can sleep with both sexes an some choose try it.. I disnt choose to be gay I was born like it.
"Right, let's get hammered!"
How all interviews should begin!
I've had the pleasure of meeting this man on a couple of occasions and he is an absolutely stellar chap.
punched your back door in rather well did he...
@@Jafmanz I read this in a british voice...
@@Jafmanz Grow up FFS. You straight folk (I'm gonna assume you're straight by the ignorance of your comment) are awfully obsessed with back door antics between men.
@@trashtv6138 It is OK to not find the joke funny, it also OK for you to feel offended. Have fun.
You filthy Bummer...
@@Jafmanz not sure where the joke is in your comment? Your entire intention was to be insulting 😭😭 where's the fun in that? Oh and there you go again mentioning anal sex! You seem quite obsessed with the concept, especially for someone that references it as filthy??
Ian McKellen in Richard III is brilliant. Please watch it, gentle reader, if you haven't.
You must be a fan of Alastair’s too.
I love how Alan looks at Ian. It's sheer admiration.
The hand holding. I melted.
Alan Carr sounds like the women Graham Chapman, Eric Idle and John Cleese used to dress up as in Monty Python.
LOL!
The Pepperpots
He also sounds like John Inman
And just as hard to understand as the Python 'women'. 😎
imiss toronto acting camp has always been popular with the sexually misguided. It’s a pose, of course. You’re too young to remember “Beyond The Fringe” which had a truly hilarious camp sketch. Ah, those were the days, when we were still allowed to laugh at this idiocy
I love Ian he's a wonderful actor and he seems like a lovely man from the interviews I have watched of him.
Cymro Brandy - Please send link to the sources that back up your claims.
He is soooo nice he came to my uni and it was amazing.
Imagine the children. lol
@ThatOneAsianBroChick Come on, they were 18-19 at the time, they would have broken up.
🤣🤣🤣
@@M-CH_ Sure, but first they would have made unforgettable memories!
More heartwarming than Sir Ian talking about his younger days and his struggle with being gay when it was against the law is to hear him talk about how thankful he was to make a killing in the cinema. That is not something which you ordinarily expect from a Shakespearean, especially one of his caliber. Makes it that much easier to enjoy the material in his filmography.
This was so lovely to watch. Like watching two friends have a chat and you just so happen to be in the room
There is a reason he is SIR Ian McKellen- pure class, with a great sense of humor
Great Interview buy Sir Ian is absolutely right about prostate cancer---GET CHECKED. I wouldn't even wait till 60, start in your mid 40s. Most men, if they live long enough, will develop prostate cancer. Sometimes it's benign and requires no action, sometimes it's aggressive and may spread and kill you. However if you catch it early it is VERY treatable. My dad had it, caught it early, had it removed and 6 years later is doing completely fine. Gets checked every 6 months, so far so good, no more cancer.
I wish your father good health. It is very treatable when detected early. My uncle had it and lived another 10 years before he died in 2012.
Yes it is the highest Type of cancer that men get second would be testicler cancer the fun of the medical assistant class
if sir Ian just talked for hours and hour I'd listen to every word . his voice is so calming
Ian mckellen should read me bedtime stories
james elder he would if you knew his name
Has the voice for it like david attenborough or patrick stewart , Morgan freeman
"So many dwarves, you could get a grant or something!"
I hope Sir Ian lives forever. People didn't give Vicious enough of a chance, but it was super fun. PS: Alan Carr sounds like an old lady, if you're not staring at the screen you forget it's a guy.
Vicious was brilliant but towards the end, they needed to do a few more rewrites on the scripts. When a show fails, it's almost always the writing.
@@Sunshine-zm1fx I agree. Having the blond girl suddenly NOT loving the young neighbour was a disappointment.
I agree. It took a while to find its feet, but it was just starting to really settle into the characters when it was cancelled.
Alan said himself during a segment from Spexy Beast! that someone he was talking to thought he was an old woman. He does sound like an old woman that's a chain smoker.
Mr. Carr makes Sir Ian look positively butch;
Not that there’s anything wrong with that. LOL 😆
I love a swishy queen.
This interview was lovely, I like how at ease Ian looks, he's truly enjoying himself!
Ian Mckellen is one of a few people I could listen to all day long. The others being John Hurt, Patrick Stewart and Morgan Freeman.
I adore Ian his voice is one of the finest voices to listen to He has such a great presence about him
Um....in 9 minutes 36 seconds, simply mentioning the word ‘gay’ denotes the validity of this clip’s title?!
So fucking what ??? I'm so sick of seeing this shit in youtube comments. The majority of RUclips channels will click bait it's a fucking business, imagine titling it "2 famous gay people talk about dwarves". wake up.
@@LRJameson I mean.. 2 famous gay men talk about dwarves? I'd watch the shit out of that xD Click on that so damned fast haha
I didn't even realise he was gay, well now I like him even more!
“Oh I wouldn’t stop licking it love” 😂
Absolute legend
Can we appreciate Sir Ian's taste in jackets for a moment
I do love Sir Ian so much! I wish I could have a little chat with him ...
I love Ian McKellen but nothing beats his power on stage. I've seen many different performances but his Richard III at the NT is brilliant. His opening of "Now is the Winter of our Discontent" is like machine gun fire. He is best on stage; he feeds off the audience.
Alan Carr laugh always makes me laugh lmao
2 beautiful human beings chatting like old friends. :)
There's an interview Ian did from the 70s with Dick Cavett here on RUclips, so young and love his look.
Alan is really funny, his quips remind me of Clive Anderson, but obviously less biting
Must we have titles that are indicative of one or two sentences in the entire interview?
How can one man have so much *STYLE* ?!
You are so right, A Style Icon!
Sir Ian is just so adorable!
There is something very soothing about Ian, he is very warm and charming.
HE IS A NATIONAL TREASURE
Love him on Graham Norton with 1D
Its crazy how most of these comments are like 80% about these 2 legends being gay. What about the interview? Lol
These 2 are my all time favourite people 👍🏻
I feel like watching Vicious. 😆
yidingcao watch the bloopers, bloody hilarious.
The world will be a little less bright when Ian and Patrick have to leave this planet.....
why would you say that, denial upkeep is hard work!! don't go ruining it for people
Love Ian.... he’s a god among men and his King Lear is just amazing even to this day!! ❤️❤️
Ian McKellan is a national treasure!
Graham Norton brings out the best in ian mckellen
I can barely understand the interviewer. Every time he says "The Office" I have to remind myself they are talking about Hobbits. ha ha
Ian and Derek would have been an excellent couple, which is sad because it's a "what might have been" instance. You can tell how much they truly care about each other as good friends and I wouldn't want Freddie and Stuart played by anybody else on "Vicious." Derek is happy with Richard (for about 40 years now) and I only hope that Ian finds somebody that he is happy with. This is a great interview.
I’ve been watching vicious all day brilliant show
6:55 - 7:17 Is when he "discusses being gay in the 60s", except all he says is that he had a crush on his cast mate, and vice versa, and it was illegal then.
What I’m looking for.
Ian Mckellan is a gift to humanity.
"so i've got this idea to have a charming gay man interview celebs, but the celebs will sit on a couch and drink booze!"
great idea, CAN'T BELIEVE IT HASN'T BEEN DONE BEFORE.
oh wait...
Yep it's a solid format. Shame they not aloud to smoke anymore... I hear Willie Nelson won't do interviews unless he aloud to smoke . An I don't mean normal cigarette
I love the faces they make when drinking the alcohol :D
What a gem!
Sir Ian McKellen is a L.E.G.E.N.D! I like him so much!
I love how Ian pronanciate the word "ppeopple" ❤1:21
Sir Ian is an international treasure. The one and the only..
I BLAME GANDALF FOR THE PIPE SMOKING HABIT I DEVELOPED AS A CHILD
omg xD
Oh how we in the USA miss this man. Ians Royalty to us.
What a legend!
I think I could have enjoyed this but for me there were 2 problems:
the accents were a bit difficult to understand, and they must have had their microphones on their belt buckles as the sound level seemed very uneven.
I absolutely adore Ian ❤ he lives just across the river Thames to me and owns an old London pub over there.
Ian Mckellen is a fucking legend.
Both Ian and Derek Jacobi are still handsome men, but when they were young = hot, hot, hot! They WOULD have made a great couple. But I love them individually anyway.
They nearly were but neither asked the other out - both backed out of asking
Prostate cancer is deadly when it appears at an earlier age. However, when it appears in ages 70 and beyond for some unknown reason it behaves in a very indolent way
The title should say “Ian McKellen on his battle with cancer”
His show Vicious should have gone on forever. It was HUH-LARIOUS.
People tend to crucify me for me stance on gay people. I disagree with the notion that Ian McKellen is awesome because he is gay.
Instead, I think that he is a great actor, a good person with a lot of beautiful qualities that simply happens to be gay.
Kyosukedono that’s how it’s supposed to be
sexuality is only part of the identity, doesn’t define a person as a whole
You are correct he is not awesome because he is gay, he is awesome because he is quite an actor. But in all fairness he is FABULOUS because he is GAY!
Also he's awesome because he has no shame to admit that he's gay. Takes a strong will to have such a public identity and admit your queerness, especially in the 60's.
This host is so sweet
Such a great actor and man thank you for this interview
Such a roll model this man i dont see wht people hate gays i have gay mates just cause they like the same sex doesnt mean they aint human ... sir ian is a role model he was the reason i got into acting in school and passed my corse lol
* Sir Ian McKellen
Beautiful soul🤗🤗🤗
LOVE YOUR SHOW !! You two are both amazing
I'm American and I paused after reading "The Hobbit shooting" for completely the wrong reason.
The irony, Ian was supposed to be my birth name 😁
They do not discuss being gay in the 60s. Clickbait.
Proud Iann right here!
If anyone ever wondered how much the stamp carpet costs. Start saving. The smallest is is £795, the biggest is £4495. I really wanted to buy one until I saw the price.
Wanted to say, u need lemonade with it love
DarthMarcus555 The Dutch eat (sic) advocaat with a teaspoon. My Opa always had a glass at Christmas. No mixer....
Goodness how I love Sir Ian McKellen ⚘⚘⚘ may he always be in health and happiness ⚘⚘⚘
Very Nice...it would have Been Nicer with the Volume Turned up ?
so magneto is gay?.. Damn! I never knew that..
Instead of "Vicious Old Bastards" I wish Ian & Derek could make a sit com where they finally get together after all these years, like "As Time Goes By".
The fact that they both fancied eachother back when they were young, but neither one knew for fear of being ostracised and/or arrested for being queer is absolutely heartbreaking. 💔😥
He really is a wizard
I have seen Ian McClellan in only a few parts but he has a great range, by which I mean he can play a "baddie" and/or a sweet, gentle, older man equally convincingly.
Host sounds like the Joker if the Joker wasn't evil
I hate hearing about how two people could have been in love and had a wonderful life together except for the times they lived in!! Well I hope Sir Ian and Derek can make up for all the years lost.
Would you like a Pink Lady? I nearly spit me drink out..
I love Sir Ian tremendously. Greatest actor of several generations.
@bobbycook9113Sir Christopher Lee?
alan sound like the gay person from little Britain
They don't sound anything alike. Certainly not their accents. 😆
He is a great man, very charming (?). But it´s weird becauseI can´t see Magneto..
"You never see anybody wash."
I introduce you, Sir, to the 5th chapter of Fellowship Of The Ring.
