Most talk show hosts keep it professional, but not Craig Ferguson, because this man turns every interview into something that's probably more memorable.

These are the best moments of Craig Ferguson.

trombones, alright.

Here you are, the stool in case Tom Cruise is ever on the show.

Why?

Why have you never been on the show?

I don't know, something about dignity.

Anyway, how are you doing?

I'm very well.

Hi, Jeff.

Hi there, how you doing, baby?

Good, good, how are you?

Do you know any more Serbian?

I'm better now that you're here.

Oh, really?

Yeah, do you know Serbian?

She's Serbian, you know?

Yeah, sure, yeah.

Yeah, sure.

This is...

Oh, God.

Are you alright there?

I'm not.

Don't get you anything else?

Isn't life just about getting comfortable with being uncomfortable?

I'm trying.

Sort of?

Yeah, I know.

It is.

Of course you're very deep tonight.

What's wrong?

What do you mean?

You don't want to get deep on the Late Late Show?

Eww.

If we must, we must.

We don't need to.

How are you?

Listen, I will do that blind date thing with you.

Your blind date project that you do with me.

I am going to do it.

I've just been a little bit forgetting to do it.

For those of you who don't know what he's talking about, last time I was on the show, he promised on American air that he would come and be my guest for a live show that I do every Wednesday.

Is it live like this or is it live?

No, it's live theater.

Oh, live theater.

Oh, in a bar?

Yeah.

Okay.

And I go on a date with a different guy every week, and I wanted Craig to come and be my date one night.

And I'll be there.

I'll text you.

Really?

Yeah.

Well, no, the texts are sent to us by the director.

He gives us messages like, try and kiss her or don't let him kiss you or which I think might be fun.

Could be a bit of a problem.

But it's not real life.

We play characters.

Okay, then fine.

It's not like this.

All right.

So I'm a character then if I come to create, you create your character and then you play that character.

All right.

I'd like to be an Austrian therapist.

Yeah, that would be great.

I will talk like this the entire time.

Okay.

I will be a Serbian adult entertainment woman.

Isn't that what you are?

You know, I don't mean in the adult entertainment like Uhu and the boobins, but I mean, you know, I mean more like in the,

you know, you do entertainment for the grown-up people who enjoy watching the television.

Yeah, yeah, you dug your way out of that one.

Good, good.

Merci beaucoup.

Why do you sound Australian?

Because I grew up in Australia.

That's it.

I remember now.

Oh, you're remembering.

It's Bojana.

It's me.

No, no, no. I know.

I just, I was thinking, did you grow up in Australia or is it an affectation?

I couldn't remember.

Wow, that would be really talented of me.

Well, see, it's what I did with Scotland.

I grew up in Dakota.

That's awesome.

I brought my own blue papers, but we talked about it.

All right.

Performance space.

122. In New York.

So we're doing the show in New York in January.

Oh, I'm available in January.

Come and do it then.

Performance space 122 as part of the Coil Festival.

That's great.

I'll do that though if I'm in New York in January, which is very possible.

Okay.

100

Good.

101

We'll call you again and I'll tweet you again.

102

Did you tweet me last time?

103

I tweeted you.

104

I've tweeted you.

105

I've tried everything.

106

I have given up.

107

Jeff?

108

How do you say Frisbee in the barn in Serbian?

109

Well, have a guy Jeff Peterson.

110

Have a guy.

111

I love him.

112

He means it in a very loving way.

113

Well, listen, we're out of time.

114

Oh, again, it happens all the time on the show.

115

You run out of time all the time.

116

Well, it's just the nature of time.

117

Does it run out, really?

118

Well, I don't know if time runs out.

119

I mean, but I think what happens is that humans have a span in which they're allotted,

120

and talk shows are part of that and this particular segment has reached the pining for the fjords area of its...

121

This is an X segment.

122

This is a segment no more.

123

This is a dead and expired segment.

124

It's a big Monty Python reference.

125

I liked it.

126

I liked it.

127

What are we doing now?

128

Did you get all your things done?

129

I want to make sure you get everything done.

130

Yeah, thank you.

131

Thanks for being so kind.

132

You know what?

133

What about you?

134

Who calls awkward silences on the show?

135

Oh, yeah, I can do that.

136

You want one?

137

Yeah, well, because, you know, you finish your- You look angry at me, I can tell.

138

You finish- No, I really- I've had women angry at me before.

139

I adore you.

140

I know the signs.

141

No, no, no. I've had women who adore me be angry at me as well.

142

That's me.

143

That's what's happening.

144

Okay.

145

Awkward, uh, awkward.

146

Ha!

147

Wanna smell my finger?

148

What do you want to smell my finger that's disgusting Smells a bit like Ben Kingsley

149

We got a girl you want to say you want to say good night.

150

Oh, is this the end of the show?

151

There'll be another bit, but it's not that good.

152

This is This is probably the, this is it really.

153

I mean, some people might stay around, but only because they're high.

154

This is when most people will turn it off, so.

155

Which camera do I say goodbye to?

156

The one with the red light.

157

There's no, there's no, I don't know what to say.

158

Good night, good night.

159

Oh, you mean because of the...

160

Oh, yeah, good night.

161

This is Olivia Wilde.

162

She's here to promote the incredible, the incredible Burt Wonderstone, alongside Steve Carell and Jim Carrey.

163

And Craig tears up the cue cards immediately.

164

Love what you're doing.

165

Thank you.

166

You got the stripes and then the.. it's color blocking, but it's kind of taking it further.

167

Thank you.

168

Your makeup looks beautiful.

169

Thank you.

170

I'm wearing makeup, but I'm a man.

171

It's unheard of.

172

It happens.

173

Do you wear makeup?

174

No, you're not wearing any.

175

No. Wow, you're just naturally very.. that's good. So much.

176

Was Steve Carell wearing makeup on his pants?

177

He was wearing.. he had to be tanned, deeply, deeply tanned every couple days.

178

and waxed or shaved.

179

Well, yeah, he's very hairy.

180

I know Steve Carell.

181

He's a very...

182

I mean...

183

He's a bit of a hair suit.

184

He's very.. he's very bucolic.

185

You feel you want to give him a banana when you meet him.

186

Well, he's been waxed before.

187

When he did 40-year-old virgin, he did the famous waxing of Kelly Clarkson.

188

That's right.

189

Which I now say every time I'm waxed.

190

It helps.

191

I smack back my chest every time.

192

It helps with the pain, but this time he was shaved and tanned

193

and he had the big wig So he had to go through everything

230

It's not a trend It's over to the right.

231

233

It's part of your story.

234

Yeah!

235

I have a huge tableau of a fox hunting scene in my back, with a fox's tail disappearing into my butt.

236

You can be the president of the bad tattoo.

237

No. That's the tattoo I've always wanted, but haven't had the courage to get.

238

I have a friend named Mike O'Brien who has bad tattoos on purpose

239

257

I'm getting Pat Sajak tattooed on my ass.

259

Oh, I'm not, but I have all the respect in the world for our new Pope, Boo Boo.

260

No, I'm trying to take myself out of that, it was just a joke, I'm just a light-hearted...

261

Well, you said it.

262

You said it on TV.

263

It was light-hearted banter, I didn't mean anything by it at all.

264

Yeah, well not what Jewel said so. Do you know Jewel?

265

My best friend.

266

Is she a dreamer?

267

268

She's been here.

269

She's been here.

270

She won't be coming again.

271

Oh no, she will.

272

The thing to remember about Jewel is she's got a very forgiving nature.

273

Oh.

274

Yeah, I met her at the mall once when she was getting her family.

275

Are you a fan of Jewel?

276

289

What else?

290

I don't know, man.

291

I'm kind of losing it.

292

It's like everyone's going to fight.

293

I thought I was in control, but now I'm like, no. We were talking about stuff that you'll never know about.

294

It's bad tattoo club business.

295

Yeah.

296

Are you going to get any more tattoos?

297

Yeah, probably you know once you get one you get another one.

298

They're kind of addicting.

299

They kind of are I like the kind of feeling of get I like being downtown Yeah, you know Like be downtown like when you're in the tattoo parlor and you're downtown and all the guys are

300

big strange

301

and just hurting you I mean some people really don't like

302

them I I do like them I think look I like them I think that

303

when they're left on your body that's just the kind of

304

result of what happened getting it it's more fun getting it

305

than it is having it's just there yeah really doesn't bother me at

306

that point yeah

307

but they're going to get it is important yeah yeah going downtown I think though as well I like it

308

because it makes me feel like I'm not owned by the

309

Borg of show business as well I kind of feel like do you ever do anything like

310

that to just wander off you feel like you're not part of this great What's that coming ago machine?

311

That tries to suck your soul out for profit do you ever ever do in to try and get away from that?

312

I try yeah, I try you can run but you can't hide I know

313

And then they bring you back in with offers of cash yeah, right?

314

We'll give you cash if you come back.

315

All right, then.

316

I know it's like when you're a kid and you run away and you get two blocks away.

317

I know.

318

I've run away.

319

I'll show them.

320

And then it's dinner time.

321

Yeah.

322

They probably learned their lesson.

323

I'll go home.

324

Yeah.

325

Yeah, you look out, CBS.

326

They're like, we're good.

327

329

Tattoos are expensive.

330

I'll come back.

331

Yeah, they are.

332

They are.

333

They really are.

334

Bad tattoo is not so expensive.

335

No. No. It can be.

336

I mean, there's so many bad ones.

337

It's fantastic.

338

I was, when I was on House, I saw...

339

You keep touching my leg.

340

I don't mean to do that.

341

Yeah, yeah, but you can't help yourself.

342

It's like, you know, no, you know what that is?

343

That knee right there, that's like catnip for actresses.

344

It's a magnetic...

345

Yeah!

346

How about I can't?

347

Dare to live the dream, Olivia, dare! When Diana

348

Agron came to promote her film The Family alongside Robert De Niro, Craig Ferguson tore up his cue cards within 30 seconds,

349

and what follows is one of the most naturally charming interviews in the entire run of this show.

350

Hello Diana!

351

How are you?

352

I'm very well, how are you?

353

Are you being nice to me because you just saw a clip of me beating up a boy?

354

This may come as a surprise to you, but I am often nice to beautiful women.

355

Well that's nice.

356

I am also European though, so you can hit me with a tennis racket and I may enjoy it.

357

Did you make that film in France?

358

We did.

359

Oh, it's lovely there, isn't it?

360

We did. So pretty.

361

Paris and Normandy for three months.

362

Oh, lovely.

363

Rough.

364

How long were you there?

365

Three months.

366

Oh my God.

367

And I'm stuck here.

368

Do you speak French?

369

Un petit peu.

370

Mm-hmm.

371

Did you get a chance to look around Europe where you were making the film or did you just stay in France?

372

I did, I did.

373

I went to London a couple of times.

374

I went to the south of France.

375

So you went to London and you went to France.

376

South of France.

377

South of France?

378

North of France.

379

You could only really go Amsterdam as well.

380

Oh yeah, I've been there.

381

Did you have any baked goods when you were in Amsterdam?

382

I don't know what you're talking about.

383

You know what I'm talking about.

384

Like, mm-mm-mm.

385

Little cookie maybe, little cookie.

386

I'll just try one.

387

There's a horse in a stall over there.

388

Yeah, that's not really happening.

389

You just had a lot of cookies in Amsterdam.

390

That's not true.

391

I'm kidding you.

392

So you went right that's lovely though did you like did you take the train?

393

I love you take the train.

394

Yeah, yeah, I know I've been to Europe many times.

395

Oh, I know I can hear that about you.

396

Yeah, yeah You probably thought I was German.

397

Uh-uh No, I think you're very proud to be Scottish.

398

I am well I'm very proud to be American and Scottish.

399

I'm American now.

400

Are you American?

401

I am.

402

I thought you were yeah Why do you think that you've got nice teeth?

403

Oh Oh, so do you.

404

I was at a dentist today, actually.

405

My mouth's a bit hurty.

406

I haven't gone in years.

407

You're.. look at you.

408

That's not possibly true.

409

You have to go like once a week with teeth like that.

410

No, I...

411

No, I really should go.

412

Really?

413

Yeah.

414

Open your mouth, let me see your teeth.

415

You're fine.

416

Remember though, that's a Scotsman saying it.

417

So if I can see teeth, I'm like, you're ahead of the game!

418

That's amazing.

419

It's good.

420

Wow, may I ask you about that is a very interesting piece of jewelry is it looks Indian almost two rings Oh,

421

that's lovely and it's on it.

422

Can we just can you isolate this finger so that we could Fascist man,

423

you're a fascist He won't let you show them the finger which is isolated with the rings on it Like for example,

424

I have a ring on this finger right here.

425

That's, you changed that.

426

No, from when?

427

We just met.

428

You've changed man.

429

I feel like you slipped it over, just to do that.

430

No, no, it's too big for this finger and it's, well I could go on that finger I guess, but then I'd look like one of those guys.

431

One of which guys?

432

You know the guys that wear their fingers.

433

Those guys?

434

What guys?

435

The horse.

436

The horse doesn't wear rings, it has hooves.

437

Do you do you ride horses?

438

I went riding yesterday.

439

Did you really?

440

I did.

441

What kind of horse riding do you do?

442

Do you do the like wear a little black outfit and a top hat?

443

No. Just say yes.

444

Yes.

445

Okay, thanks.

446

And any other type of horse riding?

447

Well, they're polo horses and they're English saddles.

448

So I'm trying to learn that.

449

It's much more difficult than Westerners.

450

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

451

English saddles much harder.

452

You just get an American saddle.

453

It's like putting a sofa in the back of the horse.

454

You're just hanging.

455

Yeah, you got that big thing in the middle, you just hang on to it and off you go.

456

Yeah.

457

So, in the film there's you and Robert De Niro, up and coming young actor.

458

How'd you go on with him?

459

You know, he's good.

460

Yeah, I've heard that.

461

I'll wait and see.

462

I want a couple more performances.

464

Yeah Were they grumpy with you Tommy Lee Jones is very grumpy.

465

No, he wasn't yeah with you maybe not It depends on who you are though.

466

You probably think men are really nice and well behaved quite a lot of the time.

467

I I don't think that.

468

You don't think that?

469

No. I'm sure they behave themselves a little bit more around you.

470

You know.

471

Where are you from, originally?

472

San Francisco.

473

Oh, I see.

474

So a lot of men weren't really that interested then, is what I'm saying.

475

Am I offending everybody in the world tonight?

476

It's bad.

477

I've got it bad tonight.

478

What part of San Francisco are you from?

479

Burlingame, it's about 10 minutes south.

480

No, I don't know that, but I like San Francisco, but it's lovely.

481

Do you ever go to the Mythbusters there up there?

482

No, I haven't.

483

You should go there.

484

They blow up.

485

Does he not look French?

499

No, he looked a bit too ginger.

500

I mean, I suppose you get gingers Frenchies, I suppose.

501

But all the extra things on his face, those were fake.

502

So I feel kind of bad.

503

He had a lot of acne.

504

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

505

That's not his acne.

506

I think I should clarify that for him.

507

Well, the thing is, you know, he might have acne and it might go, he might have acne by now.

508

Did you ever get acne when you were a kid?

509

Yes.

510

Really? Of course.

511

How was that? And braces.

512

Acne and braces?

513

All those things.

514

Really?

515

I was beautiful when I was a teenager.

516

I believe this.

517

I believe this.

518

No, we don't.

519

We have to take a commercial break.

520

Fine.

521

I don't know what we're doing.

522

What is it we commercial break in tonight?

523

You don't know?

524

You don't even check?

525

I think it's probably boner pills in the ShamWow.

526

It usually is.

527

Do you need a ShamWow?

528

No. Sure.

529

What did you do when you were in London?

530

Where did you go?

531

Everywhere.

532

You can't have gone everywhere.

533

I went everywhere.

534

Really?

535

What was really funny is that, um, because when you're in France, you're, you know, a lot of people speak English, and you're trying to speak some French.

536

But I would get off the train, and all of a sudden I would be very relieved, and it wouldn't click until later.

537

I can understand everybody.

538

Right, we're all talking like that, isn't we?

539

It's all like, welcome to England, all right?

540

We don't speak French here, girl.

541

No. That was really good.

542

I lived for quite some time in London actually, as it happens, as it goes.

543

Doing Oliver, the musical.

544

Yeah, that's right, exactly.

545

Can I have some more?

546

I've talked like this the whole time.

547

My friend Russell Brand talks a bit like this.

548

Have you ever met Russell?

549

Uh-uh.

550

He'd like you.

551

He would.

552

He's lovely.

553

He's English.

554

Yeah.

555

Yeah.

556

Yeah, just saying.

557

You never went to Scotland though?

558

I've been to Scotland once.

559

Really?

560

Yeah. When?

561

A few years ago.

562

I see.

563

I was so sick that I didn't see anything.

564

Were you undercover or something at the time?

565

I had an 104 degree temperature and I was only there for a few days, so.

566

Wow, what was wrong with you?

567

A lot.

568

Were you coming off of something?

569

No. Okay, I was just checking.

570

I've been in the mountain skiing.

571

Right.

572

And I just got really run down, so I have to go back. To Scotland?

573

Yeah.

574

Why on earth would you go when you were so sick?

575

Well, it was a part of a family vacation.

576

Ah, I see.

577

Christmas experience.

578

Mm-hmm.

579

So I couldn't ruin Christmas.

580

I have no problem doing that every year.

581

No. I like to lose my temper and get hideously drunk in front of the kids.

582

Well...

583

No, of course not.

584

I don't even drink anymore.

585

I lose my temper, though.

586

Over what?

587

Oh, stupid...

588

Ay caramba!

589

Like?

590

Just stupid crap.

591

What about you?

592

Do you lose your temper? lose your temper you seem very

593

even sort of I'm mellow you're pretty kind of gorgeous actually

594

yeah you really don't you don't have a temp don't applaud

595

596

that it makes me look even creepier you don't you don't

597

606

and that makes you calm makes you a lot of things I'm kind of scared

607

and kind of turned on at the same time.

608

But that's the way I am always.

609

So, we're out of time.

610

You fancy an awkward pause, a bit of therapy?

611

What do you fancy?

612

You can twerk with a horse if you want.

613

That doesn't.. no. I didn't think you'd want to do that.

614

What's the therapy?

615

Well, you tell me your problems, I'll fix you up.

616

I don't have any problems.

617

Mm-hmm.

618

That's denial.

619

That's your first problem.

620

Everyone has problems.

621

There's no shame in it.

622

There's no shame in it, Diana.

623

I don't have bad problems.

624

Mm-hmm.

625

Well, I think that's taking a judgment on a good or a bad problem.

626

There's no moral in a problem.

627

A problem is simply a problem.

628

So tell me why you hate America.

629

They warned me about it.

630

Oh, come on.

631

In the best way.

632

No, come on.

633

I think I've laughed on this show more than I've ever laughed on a show.

634

Really?

635

Yeah.

636

Man, you must do some crappy shows, girl.

637

Yeah.

638

Now that you've seen where these two ended up, here's where it all started.

639

This is Bojana Novakovic's first appearance on the show.

640

She came in to promote her Fox series Rake.

641

But what she got instead was Craig Ferguson abandoning the interview within two minutes

642

and going somewhere nobody on the production team had planned for.

643

Boyana Beautiful name that is boyana is that serbian by any chance?

644

Oh it is wow you read your card No, I because during the commercial break about I said welcome and I said boy.

645

I know that's a lovely name And she said it's serbian

646

671

Yeah, uh, tacos El Carbon.

672

Good night, Serbian.

673

Thanks, Jeff.

674

Jeff's so funny.

675

Yeah, your accent sounds a little bit Australian, to be honest.

676

I have to be...

677

We did move to Australia when I was seven.

678

I see.

679

Which part of Australia?

680

We moved to Sydney and then I moved to Melbourne.

681

Have you been?

682

I have.

683

Been to both places.

684

I really liked Melbourne.

685

Me too.

686

I don't quite like Sydney as well, but Melbourne, my lord. So good.

687

Lots of punks in Melbourne.

688

I think they keep...

689

I was one of them!

690

Now you're in a suit.

691

Yes, yes.

692

But underneath the suit naughty tattoos and the heart of punk rock give any other tattoos.

693

Yes.

694

Mmm I was really drunk No, I would never get my you know,

695

where did you get your tattoos then?

696

Oh your arms no, but I mean where did you get them in New York?

697

All right?

698

Oh god I hope he's not watching who the guy who did this one I fell in love with him

699

when he did it and then he did this one

700

and it says can't get rid of you And then he broke up with me Wait, you got tattoos done by a lover?

701

Yeah.

702

Well, he wasn't my lover.

703

Really?

704

Yeah.

705

Gosh, that's brave.

706

And then we broke up and then I got this one.

707

Yeah, but that must be tough.

708

Because then it's on you.

709

Well, no, I love them.

710

Okay, fair enough.

711

I don't regret a single one.

712

Right, alright.

713

What are you doing with that card now?

714

I'm just saying what you've been told to talk.

715

I've always been intrigued, especially on your show, what the cards say.

716

Because people work and they write it up for you.

717

Yeah, they actually work them.

718

I tear them up every night.

719

Yeah, I know, I know.

720

And I kind of just thought it would be nice to mention, you know, that people work hard to write the cards.

721

They do, and you know their work is deeply appreciated.

722

My thanks to all of the people who write on these cards every night.

723

The only reason I tear them up is to express my disdain for the job and the medium.

724

That's all.

725

Oh, but you're...

726

You've got to...

727

No, don't clap that.

728

Don't clap that.

729

You have the best...

730

This is the best talk show.

731

I think it's a great talk show, but that's like being, you know...

732

That's like being the tallest midget.

733

I mean, so what?

734

No, you're lucky.

735

No, I like this show.

736

I do.

737

You curse and they put a little flag over your mouth, they let you curse.

738

Do you curse?

739

Ay caramba!

740

She's Serbian!

741

She's Serbian!

742

She's Serbian and then Australian.

743

She doesn't understand our ways.

744

Let her talk!

745

You're a racist man.

746

Double racist.

747

Serbia and Australia.

748

Have you ever been back to Serbia?

749

Oh, I didn't even see that you were there.

750

Sorry.

751

Yeah, yeah.

752

No, no, come on.

753

Yeah, that's right.

754

But I appreciate the work you do.

755

He didn't do these, did he?

756

No, no, he doesn't do these.

757

He's way above that.

758

He tells people to do these.

759

Oh, okay, okay, okay.

760

And they're like, but he tears them up every night and says, you better do them.

761

Let's, no, no, let's see, hang on.

762

Rake.

763

Oh, well, no, we did that.

764

Yeah, Rake.

765

You never talk about people's showers.

766

Yeah, do tell me about Rake.

767

Oh, my God, they're gonna love me for bringing that up.

768

Rake.

769

Yeah, yeah, Rake.

770

Is it any good?

771

Yeah.

772

There you are, then.

773

You should watch it.

774

I've seen them all!

775

It's really great.

776

Are they on TV?

777

And you know what, I'm not just saying that.

778

Yes, it's on TV.

779

No, no, no. It's on Fox, I already said it.

780

9pm Thursday night.

781

9pm Thursday night.

782

Yeah, you know, it's so fast.

783

I was really nervous about having to talk about it, because you know, most people...

784

I really wish they had like an honesty meter when people talked about who they work with.

785

Oh, you don't want to have that.

786

No, I do, because do you know what, because like me talking about Rake, everything would be honest.

787

The Honour's Truth, it's such a good group of people to work with.

788

Well, who, like, Kinnear?

789

Yes.

790

Do you know?

791

No. He's been here a couple of times.

792

No, I need to say something.

793

I need to say something.

794

He's lovely. May I?

795

Yeah, yeah.

796

I mean, I don't know.

797

He was ill.

798

Very ill. Was he?

799

Yes.

800

Very, very sick on set.

801

And he stayed on set to work.

802

804

Really?

805

You're my warm-up act.

806

Um.

807

Yes, he's not there.

835

Okay.

836

Sorry.

837

The only people here are you and me and the skeleton, baby.

838

So what were we talking about?

839

We were talking about your show, The Three of Clubs or something.

840

Okay, so it's a fully improvised hour.

841

I have no idea how that would work.

842

It works.

843

guest you should be my date Craig you should come and be my date on it

844

oh yeah it's a fully improvised hour it's called the blind

845

847

and phone calls and it's an improv show

848

854

Contempt for the...

855

Format, and I like that. Which format?

856

I have no idea.

857

My feet aren't even touching the ground, I'm so short.

858

George, do you want a little...

859

Oh, my God, my mind.

860

Maybe the Tom Cruise still, hold on.

861

Oh, thanks.

862

Anyway, Rake's amazing, because Greg was really ill and he...

863

There you go.

864

Thanks.

865

We keep that in case Tom Cruise is ever on.

866

He's my height.

867

Maybe now that he sees that it works.

868

Yeah, don't worry Tom, we're set up for you.

869

Oh, we have to go, we're way over, sorry.

870

Really?

871

Way over?

872

I'll talk to you more on your show.

873

Oh, do we have to do the commercial break now?

874

Yes.

875

Oh, you will come, you'll come and do my show.

876

But you don't play yourself, you play a character.

877

Tootsie Fruitsie!

878

Oh, you can play yourself then.

879

Oh, I'll do it.

880

Okay, great.

881

All right, then.

882

But I play a character.

883

All right, go to a commercial break.

884

Oh, let's go.

885

Well, wait, who's your character?

886

Her name's, oh, it doesn't matter.

887

She changes according to who.

888

I'm not allowed to know that it's you either, right?

889

I don't know who it is, so I'll put you in touch with my people, and then we'll figure it out.

890

This is Imogen Poots, here to promote her romantic comedy, and that became an awkward moment.

891

She broke Craig's salad tongs in the green room before the interview even began.

892

He brings it up multiple times in between, teen, somehow finding time to compliment everything she's wearing and tell a story about a girl.

893

It's all right.

894

I'm just saying it John Goodman how much we enjoyed Accents that with people who talk a little bit like you.

895

Well, I actually said that just now says somebody was very very lovely And I said thank you very much, and I thought that's actually quite a No, thank you very much.

896

It's a lovely thing.

897

Thank you very much But you can't really say just like thank you very much.

898

It's like thank you very much sounds a bit Well, where the thing is you see what happens is cuz I've

899

lived in America for a long time I'm American now if you say thank you very much like that be curtsy

900

They get, they're like, oh, well, nice to meet you.

901

You're nice to meet your, uh, nice to meet your, your ladyship.

902

And, uh, they curtsy.

903

That's a great thing.

904

No, it's fine.

905

You know, I have to tell you, this is something I've learned in Los Angeles.

906

Don't eat communal salad.

907

Like in Spain?

908

Well, you're not meant to.

909

Well, no, in Spain, you can eat communal salad.

910

You can?

911

I don't know.

912

But in Los Angeles, people are like, is that salad?

913

Ah, man.

914

And they use the tongs, and then you go, thank you very much, and they curtsy.

915

And the sneeze guard, this is Bishop's sneeze guard.

916

There's a sneeze guard up there?

917

I don't think there is.

918

Did you break it?

919

Were you very violent as a child?

920

I wasn't Craig, I was very gentle as a child.

921

Where are you from?

922

From Chiswick in London.

923

I used to go out with a girl from Chiswick. Did you?

924

I did, she had a fantastic bum.

925

Oh, that's...

926

I used to travel from North London on the Piccadilly Line to see her bum. Did you?

927

It's worth it.

928

It was worth it every trip.

929

That's a good thing.

930

Yeah.

931

It's full of pensioners and pigeons and bottoms.

932

Pensioners are old people.

933

They're what we call seniors here in America.

934

Seniors.

935

Yeah.

936

That was, now the girls whose bottom I went to, well, she'd be a senior now, I suppose.

937

I don't know if she is.

938

Well, I'm sure her bottom's still fine.

939

That's not the point.

940

So you're from Chiswick.

941

I am.

942

And are your family acrobats or something?

943

Absolutely not.

944

Wish they were.

945

What are they then?

946

They're pootsers.

947

Pootsers.

948

It is, I'm trying to not say your name too much.

949

I'm so sorry.

950

I'm sure you get a lot of trouble about being called a poots.

951

Well, it's fine.

952

In Europe it's okay.

953

In America it's game over.

954

Because people in hotels, if you happen to be in a hotel, and you call downstairs for some suspicious request,

955

they assume that I'm a man.

956

Whoa, whoa.

957

Suspicious request?

958

Such as...shoeshine?

959

Shoeshine?

960

Well, shoeshine?

961

Could you just end up with shoeshine?

962

Thank you very much.

963

Yeah, all right.

964

Really?

965

A shoe shine?

966

When in Rome?

967

What?

968

When in Rome don't eat communal salad?

969

I don't understand!

970

Do you get your shoes shi- your shoes are- well these are matte.

971

These are.

972

They are.

973

Well done.

974

Well I know about women's shoes.

975

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
