Don’t you just love Bill Nighy? My father was a miner, died at 63 from a year pit related illness. I marched with them in the 80s when my Da was fighting for the right to go down a black hole. Had a great grandfather that died in a pit collapse in Fallin Pit. I seen my fathers face bust and bruised from police and horses at Orgreave. Two communities coming together in solidarity and the miners being instrumental in the LGBT being able to get married these days. Two of the best people in my life are my beautiful Da and my beautiful Gay son. Could I be any prouder? ❤️

He makes me feel proud to be English! What a really lovely man he is. God bless you Bill Nighy.

He is so classy and humble. The thing I love most, which I think speaks volumes about him, is how highly he speaks of those he's worked with.

Without doubt the most unpretentious actor I have ever seen interview which ALL other actors should take note. Recently watch the triple of Page Eight where he plays the spy Johnny Worricker and he was outstanding, he can say so much with just a small change in his body and no matter the words he speaks he gives them such meaning and worth. He now has taken the mantle over from Laurence Olivia saying to 'method actor' Dustin Hoffman in Marathon Man who spent hours running to get into character "Try acting, dear boy". Bill does a similar story about a young actor telling him he had lost his 'feelings' for the role due to his drama teacher telling him, he could not see his feelings. Bill tells him, his teacher needs an excuse to make out they are teaching, and he tells the young actor, "Learn and trust the lines, every thing you need is the lines, it is called acting" He also unlike so many 'lovies' like the worse Christopher Bale believes in being polite, respectful and kind to every one be they actors or fans. Hope he is around for a long time and become a 'statesman' of what acting and what an actor should be.

This is one of Bill Nighy's best interviews. I couldn't help chuckling from time to time :) Thanks a lot!

Am I the only one that googled young bill nighy? I prefer this version. Some people look better as they get older

I do too. One does not always want to meet their favorites. But Nighy is a truly lovely man, as well as one of my favorite actors.

A heartfelt and amazingly honest interview. Enjoyed it very much.

I love the actors he mentioned - they too are the real deal. Being authentic today is so rare.

I hope Bill returns to Broadway sometime in the future.

One of the best interviews I have ever watched. Both Interviewer and subject Top stars

CLASSY, CHARISMATIC, CUTE .. Bloody NIGH perfect..❤️

Top bloke, top film.

What a lovely human being bill is 😊

Totally get the eye thing, finally got contact lenses and was truly shocked I looked so much older than I appeared without them, wake up call

Best interview of anyone in a long long time. Probably because he is the interview-ee. Intelligent, insightful, charming and very witty. Loved it. Thank you Bill Nighy for who you are...

I've got a good idea for children in need. Peter Sellars took the Beatles song "A hard days night" and recited the words over some music like it was Shakespeare. You could take the words from the Jefferson Airplane song "The Ballad of the Chrome nun." and do the same thing it would go viral.

A wonderful, specail man.....Would love to have him as a friend.

Thanks. He's great and very interesting to ;listen to.

love that still crazy got mentioned. i would easily put that film in my top 5, watch it a lot. in fact, i might watch it now!!

Very engaging interview, thanks.

pride was an incredible movie

@Suramya Singh yes it was and what made it that good was the fact that it was a true story. Gives you faith in human nature. Take care✊🏼

wow - what he says about acting really applies to everything. He cuts through all the bullshit - love this guy!

Impeccable

Great interview.

My first memory of Bill Nighy is when he was cast as Sam Gamgee in the BBC adaptation of The Lord of the Rings - 1981

Heaven help me because he won’t read this thankgoodness but he is adorable and I am 80. But I love his movies. ❤

I was trying to remember the radio series - thanks (great series)

Bill Nighy is the opposite of 'laconic'.

Espresso not Expresso bill..Jesus.

Laconic? Maybe. Louche? That's kind of rude. Who called him louche?

A loveable guy but he doesn't really act. He just delivers lines as himself a charming Englishman with his natural mannerisms.

Watch the making of from Pirates of the caribbean and him acting as Davy Jones in his mocap suit, he made up all of the characters little quirks and mannerisms himself, if thats not acting then I dont know what is.

Also as he played Viktor...it can't be possible that he delivered Viktor's lines as himself because Viktor is often cruel, impulsive and sometimes even aggressive. All characteristics that Bill doesn't have
