I loved the subtle Wayne’s World reference in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody - “I want a song that people will crank up the volume and bang their heads to in their cars - Bohemian Rhapsody is will never be that song” - I didn’t pick up on that line until I learned that the record producer in the movie was played by Mike Myers!!

I grew up listening to Queen because of my grandparents and father playing their albums all the time. After my grandfather passed away my grandma gave me all of his original vinyls including all of Queens original songs and full albums that I still get out every now and then and play them on record player when I want to hear the original versions instead of the remastered versions on CD that I’ve got as well.

Ive always been a big fan of Mike Myers since his early days on SNL. Seems like a real down to earth, humble guy too. And if not for Waynes World I would have no idea about Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody.

This was one of the most touching interesting and beautiful interviews ever

I think a lot of people would agree, Queen had a second wind after Wayne's World. Yes, Queen as a band was already legendary by 1992, but that song being featured so prominently in that movie brought along a whole new generations of fans. I should know, I'm 48, and although I never really listened to a lot of what we used to call classic rock, 60's and 70's rock, when I was growing up, but I saw Wayne's World when I was in college and that movie was such a huge cultural event for my generation, ("we're not worthy" and "schwing!" anyone?) that the song was kinda embedded in my head as well. I actually began listening to more and more classic rock as I got older, in my 20s and 30s.

It is a very good film. It has some flaws. BUT it got so many things right that could have gone terribly wrong (the tone, the pacing, and most importantly the balance between the different aspects of Freddy's story) that I can easily forgive them. I especially found the scene very powerful, where he told the band of his AIDS infection. In my view, he slightly broke the fourth wall in his reaction to their reaction. To me it said: "Catastrophic things will happen to you, but don't be a victim! Use the time that was given to you to the best of your ability. Don't waste it with self pity."

Allegedly he found the umbrella while the 2nd Para moved through Oosterbeek and Arnhem. He kept the umbrella and used it basically as a symbol to boost morale during the 4 day bridge siege. It is reported that during a counter-attack on an infiltrating German armored car he jammed the brolly through the drivers vision slit. On another occasion as the siege got worse he was dashing between houses across streets covered by snipers, one man pointed out the umbrella would not help and he responded "but what if it rains". Basically in a desperate battle where the Para's were surrounded, outnumbered and eventually crushed many soldiers remembered Tatham-Warter and his brolly.

In the Bridge to Far film the character is a composite of Tatham-Warter (the umbrella and eccentricities) and a few other officers.

He escaped capture when the bridge fell and hid out with Dutch families and during that time he helped organize the Pegasus evacuation to sneak several hundred Para evaders (including himself) back across the Rhine into Allied lines (a scene seen in the Market Garden episode of Band of Brothers). Allegedly he (not speaking German or Dutch and without papers) intimidated German occupiers into behaving politely to the Dutch family he stayed with (at huge risk to themselves) and on one occasion while riding a bicycle between contacts stopped to help push a German officers staff car out of a ditch. The man had ice water for blood. Arnhem was his first experience (and last) of truly serious combat. Colonel Frost described him as one of the most courageous and gifted officers he ever served with.

Mike seems like one of the most sincere, genuine-sounding famous people...

Fabulous interview. Stephen you were wonderful to bring out the best of Mike's experiences by letting him take over the conversation. Mike Myers.... What a crazy talented intelligent performer, and what an off-the-chart Life. It must have felt like fireworks were going off all the time when you were able to meet and work with so many incredible personalities. I'm not jealous I am truly IN AWE.

This was THE most adorably wholesome Colbert interview I've seen next to the one with Keanu Reeves.

Wayne's World introduced me to Bohemian Rhapsody. I remember after the movie came out, all of us teenagers banging our heads to it just like in the movie. Casting Mike Myers in the role of the exec was a brilliant move.

Having seen the film now, I have to agree with Mike - Rami Malek IS Freddy Mercury. He killed it and definitely deserves an award of some kind.

Love Mike Myers. He does comedy but can really pull off dramatic roles and is underappreciated for them. One of my fav Canadians, and I'm from Toronto too! I bought my kilt at the same place he did!

I like how he didn’t mention Kevin spacey when he names all the people from the start or Austin powers 3

Two class acts makes for a great interview. Thanks for the wonderful childhood memories Mike!

If you take one thing away from this interview it should be that you never know the effect you have on other people. George Harrison never met Mike Myers the same way that Freddie Mercury died before Wayne's World was made and released but their lives are intertwined just the same.

Just as I was passing through Scarboro on a main road was a car totally engulfed in flames, you could really feel the heat. But, there was no one around, no sirens, not even a smiggin' of onlookers. Only fire and smoke. Yep! Only in Scarboro one early Sunday morn.
