I desperately need this scene to play out. On film or on paper

Here’s a thought: I’d cast Ian and Maggie in a comedy thriller about two widowed, quarrelling neighbours who, during one of their bouts, stumble upon an obscure clue about a serial killer who committed a string of murders in their town decades ago. The police refuse to reopen the case as they hooked an innocent guy for it all those years ago so Ian and Maggie begrudgingly work together to uncover it. What the hell is Hollywood doing with all the reboots. Develop original stories with the greats in mind and put them in lead roles ffs.

He’s snuck out onto the main balcony for a cheeky cigarette, gone wondering about in other random rooms he shouldn’t be going in yet the Queen still invites him back often and allows him to be left unattended! I’m surprised she doesn’t have guards watching him the whole time from when he arrives until he leaves just to make sure he stays where he’s meant to be. 😂😂😂💙💙

Looking back at what I wrote about all the things that he’s admitted to doing everytime he visits BP and just goes where he likes even though he knows he shouldn’t. Actually reminded me of all that stuff that came out about MeAgain doing the exact same thing before she even married Just Harry. And she got into so much trouble because she kept going into rooms she wasn’t allowed to and caught going through drawers and cupboards, that The Queen apparently insisted that anytime her and Just Harry visited that MeAgain wasn’t allowed to be left on her own and had to be accompanied by members of staff if she needed to use the restroom, changing room or Just Harry showing her rooms that he was allowed to go in. And it wasn’t just BP either it was all the Royal residency’s that she kept getting caught by staff members in places she shouldn’t have been, so she had to be watched and followed everywhere incase she ended up somewhere she shouldn’t! Yet it seems The Queen let’s Sir Ian and Dame Maggie do the exact same thing and like you said has a great sense of humor about them doing it, which is probably why she always asks them back, lets them as she knows they’re not going to cause any trouble or steal a famous and very valuable painting, vase or anything else that’s been in her family for generations(they probably stole an ashtray each or a roll of toilet paper like a lot of people seem to admit to taking if they get invited to BP!) and then laughs about what the pair of them got up-to when her staff members fill her in on their antics and “Adventures around Buckingham Palace.” (I bet they could write a whole book of stories about what they’ve gotten up-to when visiting the place, and that’s probably the name they’d call it too, because there’s always something new one or both of them have done when they’ve been for another visit!) 🤣🤣🤣Unlike jewelry that apparently started disappearing when MeAgain came on the scene! 🧐

@@DRpokeme there is no actual CCTV inside Buckingham Palace itself from what I’ve seen, read and heard or any of the Royal residency’s, It’s all just on the outside, that’s why The Queen always has an armed guard outside her bedroom all night until early in the morning, due to the amount of times people have managed to get inside the building and up to The Queen’s actual bedroom with one guy actually making inside once and The Queen sat in bed talking to him because she had no way of contacting anyone else to report him. So she stayed awake all night and they just talked. He didn’t want to harm her apparently, he just wanted someone to talk to and thought The Queen was the best person because of everything that was happening in the UK at the time, people losing their jobs and homes and benefits getting cut Etc… from what I’ve read. Some other guy tried and he did want to harm her and Prince Philip and he almost made it to her Bedroom but got caught by a member of staff who had woken up to get a drink of water I believe. But multiple people have got inside the building, so they was added to the outside. It probably explains why all the reports of MeAgain going around and getting caught in rooms she shouldn’t have been in and going through drawers and cupboards was all reported to The Queen by members of staff who’d caught her which caused her getting into trouble and The Queen ordering that she’s not to be left alone and has to be accompanied by members of staff if she needs the restroom, changing room or was shown around by Just Harry well before they were even married she was caught snooping around in places she shouldn’t have been, and not just BP but all Royal residency’s MeAgain visited she had to be escorted around by members of staff because she couldn’t be trusted. And then there’s the missing jewelry that seemed to start going missing when those two got together apparently! A pair of earrings that belonged to the crown collection went missing the day MeAgain wore them and other pieces are missing and they vanished when she was wearing them apparently! So if they had CCTV inside they would be able to prove exactly what she was doing and not to just members of staff.

Great video, awesome story. To anyone wondering the word is "Pounamu", and is pronounced poe-nah-moo. I met Sir Ian McKellen outside a theatre in Auckland.

I would love to see great actors and actresses like Ian and Maggie having good ol' friendly English banter amongst themselves. With how lovely and awesome they are, I could imagine it'll be a hoot.

I met this lovely man in the late 80s when he did a one man Shakespeare showcase at UCLA, where I was a student. I chatted with him a bit after the show and he gave me one of the red roses that some fan had given to him. To this day, I have it pressed in my Complete Shakespeare volume! Brilliant, brilliant actor.

Maggie Smith, Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart in a movie together !!!! MAKE IT HAPPEN !

It doesn't always work. King of Thieves had an amazing cast of veteran British actors and it was a flop with the critics. Personally I thought the movie was great.

OMFG I LOVE MAGGIE SMITH lol

I like to think that Maggie is beyond fame… The way Ian describes her she’s like the queen 2.0 😂 *mind you- she’s an amazing actress*

For anyone who has not seen Maggie in “The Lady in the Van” please watch it, it’s a classic performance from Maggie as always and you won’t be disappointed. I fell in love with her in the 60’s while watching “The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie” just magical.👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love Maggie Smith -- even when somebody else is doing an impression of her, she still somehow shines through... lol

I miss LOTR

+Fionn Cullen The Silmarillion will never become a movie because of how tragicly complex of a story it is. And also because of strict copyright claims signed by Tolkien's family

I am never surprised by anything these legendary actors can do. Absolute powerhouses of talent!

Lol she told him don't ever immitate again after she saw this 🤣

I was browsing randomly and I only just noticed. Feb 24...this...this is fresh! I thought it was like 2-3 years ago but they are ....they are actually like this. I am glad in the year 2017 they are still as funny and cool.

hahaha oh I just love Maggie Smith's wit!! Those two would be brilliant in a film together... I don't think they have done one?

Besides the one film they did together I'd imagine at some point they were on stage together.

What an actor you are sir Ian . May God bless you .

Ian is such an incredible actor...and such an incredibly funny man as well

Sir Ian, Sir Patrick and Dame Maggie..Three of the greatest of the greats. Honor to have had them around most of my life. Thanks to them and to them and to Graham.

This story makes me love Maggie Smith even more. Well, and Ian McKellen even more as well, but that's a given.

This video never gets old. Just like Ian.

Genius punchline!

It's crazy how old they have gotten. Two amazing actors sir Ian McKellen and sir Patrick Stewart, not to mention my excitement for Jackman in Logan

Hello i see happiness all around you, can I please share from it ?

One of my fave celebrity stories. A clean simple story with an unexpected ending, told to perfection

Dame Maggie: I don't sound like that at all.

This episode was one of the single most awesome episode of ALL TIME in the Graham Norton Show. And this moment made it EVEN MORE AWESOME!

I've seen this clip so many times, it never fails to make me laugh.

love him, the way that he wears a tie on a t-shirt, punk Rock... love him💪

[Sir] Ian McKellen is an international treasure hilarious - 😂

This story always makes me smile because you can hear and see Maggie doing this. So funny .

There is nothing more charming than a person able to laugh so heartily about himself...

You are the company you keep and High Jackman most certainly keep himself around legends. Love Sir Ian Mckellen and the classy Ms. Maggie Smith.

It's such a shame Ian and Patrick don't have Oscars, the level of acting of these two is superb.

Love it!!!!Ian Mckellen is not only a great actor as either magneto or Gandalf in any of his films but he is great at imperessnating other people he is so funny you just have to love talent like this and for those who gave thumbs down your out of your mind!!!!

If we’re calling him Sir then we should also call her by her title Dame , too!

Ian is a special soul🙌

Maggie and Ian are both icons! Love this

Prof McGonagall : 1 Gandalf : 0

I love how Graham just lets his guests talk and doesn’t interrupt.

Brilliant!! I laughed out loud. That woman is a pistol.. noone can handle her. Hilarious.. absolutely hilarious. One of a kind for sure.. xx..

The fact he didn’t win an Oscar for playing Gandalf is nothing short of criminal. Probably one of if not the most iconic characters in film ever.

What a wonderful guy , that Ian x,) !!

It’s ridiculous how many times I’ve seen this video

Sir is lovely. I meet him and he is just adorable. But what really like to see in this video is how much hugh j respects him .. all his body language shows genuine happiness and interest in being on his presence
