She was a female Marine. One of her performance reviews described her personality and it was pretty much Dorothy all the way. From what I understand, there wasn't much acting involved; for most purposes, Bea WAS Dorothy. And how blessed we all have been because of it. Hand salute!
As I’ve said before, I wish the Golden Girls had aired for fifteen seasons instead of seven. Bea and Betty (not to mention my favorite Rue-Rue) were still so sharp in 2000-2001, their characters could so easily have aged gracefully from 55-70.
I sent Bea Arthur a letter as a 14 year old from Manchester, England. Three weeks later I received a signed photo in return in the post, she didn’t have to do that. As you’re all wondering, I turned out completely straight.
sorry to be off topic but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the password. I love any tips you can offer me.
@@annettesjoy lmao honey i have done research she was an activist for women animals and the lgbt community not being besties with betty white doesn’t change what a truly remarkable woman she was so shut it and let her rest
Its from the 90s when Graham was on channel 4! he got a way with so much on the show! once the BBC poached him and he defected he wastnt as funny or near the nuckle i think the bbc had told him to tone it down ( like he couldnt joke about royalty and things like that anymore) henc him having the graham norton show were yes he still makes some jokes but its more a stright up chat show now i still watch it now and then BUT not often!
u know, when u get someone like bea arthur u should give her the whole show. He didn't let her talk AT ALL. It was just him on the computer and the phone.
clearly you don't know Graham Norton. He is not a proper interviewer (certainly not back then) and he knows he isn't. He just casually chats to his guests which is one reason why famous people like him: they know he won't delve deep or try to upset them

Ah!! This was a little hard to watch for a bit. I just can't believe he had just Bea sitting there while he was interviewing/talking to someone else and looking at useless cakes. When you have someone like Bea Arthur, an actress of that type of caliber on your show, a QUEEN like her.... She deserves ever minute. Every SECOND.
Jessica Santillo you do realize this is the 2nd of 2 parts. He talked to Bea before Stephanie came out. Also, people don't seem to be acquainted with Bea's penchant for raunchy humor. Listen to some tracks from her one woman Broadway show.
Bea loved doing Grahams show for that exact reason. She was able to talk and chat but it was light hearted and silly. She hated chat shows generally but loved this one.
@@lorimiller4301 you not only take every chance you get to slander “your role model” Stefanie Powers, but you also are nasty towards folks whose first language might not be english.
What in the absolute fuck. He has an absolute legend sitting in front of him and he calls Joe Pedo Schmoe? God, I would have just stood up and walked off. What an INSULTING interview. He clearly doesn't deserve her grace, wit and charm. She was amazingly gracious during that fiasco.
zzindorf, I agree. I bet Bea Arthur and Stephanie Powers we're sorry they agreed to appear on this show. The most ridiculous and idiotic show I have ever seen. That show would never last in the United States.
He was soooooooooooo disrespectful!!!! Bea Arthur barely talked!!! He was talking most of the time. (and yes i know Graham Norton). It's like inviting Mahatma Gandi to talk about painting nails and beauty tips!!!
Graham’s ok-He’s a bit of a tit but he’s funny on occasion I’m not fussed on many Irish or British comedians tbh. American comedy is funnier. Bea was a legend.
Bea's sharp wit here is so reminiscent of Dorothy. No wonder she delivered those one-liners so well.

“I was pumping pedals at the time.” Haha Bea was the greatest

Bea was so sharp, full of wit. She was a treasure. I don't think that kind of celebrity exists anymore.
She was a treasure?? I don't think so, do some research.

Bea is so naturally funny.
The main actresses from my two favourite TV shows! I cannot believe I haven’t seen this show before, love them both!

Bea always did have the best sense of fashion. RIP Ms Bea!
Bea was naturally witty and hilarious!!
Oh dear God, I've been in love with Stephanie Powers since she was The Girl From Uncle. She is still breathtaking.
What a funny lady, Bea was...R. I. P. The golden girls are on again.. I absolutely love that show. Its on channel 5- it makes my day.
Oh my god " NOT EVEN FOR FEW GOOD FRIENDS"....... ma'am you were the great 😻😻😻
I *love* stef’s laugh in response!
🌹🙏🏼TWO ABSOLUTELY STUNNING WOMEN 🌹🙏🏼
Stephanie still looked great even then!! awesome!!
Stefanie is now 80!
"not even for a few good friends?" lol
She's quick, isn't she?? :D
Memorable
B got hella game!
This episode is a good one ,thank you 220GS.
That was a dead body floating up when the Harts were kissing near the edge of the water.. It took a minute for them to notice it...
The guy that made the Betty's Tongue cake was a hottie!
+torres songs OMG Yes he was!
hell yeah he was ...
He was FINE as hell
My Mother’s name was Beatrice. We are also from NYC and Jewish. I love Bea’s. 🥂🍾
Funniest talk show on television and ... with the most interesting guests!
OMG Bea Arthur AND Stefanie Powers. ..sigh.....2 of my favorite ladies!!!!
all my sarcasm was inspired by Maude
this was 24 years ago. Quarter of a century
I never knew bea was so sharp and witty
love Bea Arthur!
Can we mention how amazing that dog is?!?
I loved it. I had one too when I was a kid
12:33 when Bea hears that the audience member has won a trip to Paris 😂
We ❤️ Stephanie Powers
LOVE Bea & Stefanie!
"...I was pumping pedals at the time ". 👍👍😅😅😅😅😅
I just love Bea, loved her also in Golden Girls. Think she and the other girls are amazing. Of course Graham is great as always ;)
u know, when u get someone like bea arthur u should give her the whole show. He didn't let her talk AT ALL. It was just him on the computer and the phone.

I know right, I think he should of talked more about the golden girls and her career, that's what he's doing now with his guests
I totally agree with you.
It's the second part of an interview...the entire first part was Bea alone
can i just say i love british tv. even 19 years on, this would NOT fly on a US network
Why's that?
Tbf it’d struggle on UK networks these days.
Probably would on HBO…

Start at 12:23 and peep Bea's face when he says Paris
I have to be honest. I wasn't looking at Bea. Robyn is a cutie.
The tart to tart segment omg lol
I was raised on a steady diet of Hart to Hart and Golden Girls.
I used to watch Hart to Hart every Monday after school back in the 90s.
wonder what the deal with the robot dog was at the beginning. He was kinda cute! I'd like to find out more about that now! lol
"Nor have I" :-)
With Stephanie Powers comes Stephanie responsibility.
Two great looking, classy ladies!
Her name is Stefanie Powers
That was hysterical
OMGGG I remember those dog things!!
What a smile❤️
Tart to Tart. Or as its now known; Bake Off
Love Bea Arthur. A wonderful Lady!
So F**king great!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
this episode was aired on 2/25/2000. Bea Arthur died 9 years later on 4/25/2009.
Bea Looks So Pretty !!
Maravilhosa entrevista
The lady in red was Nicole Harris in Herbie The Love Bug :) ps: Bea is so sharp!
Bea Arthur is so quick
Bea was an amazing women and very funny very underrated
I like stephany she is gorgeous..and bea she is funy.
I like her..
I think it was really nice when they used to send people on weekends away rather than just give them the money, it was more special. The American guests were also so impressed when people won citybreaks to Paris and Rome etc.
K-9!

GOOD GRIEF
How did Stephanie stay soooooo Gorgeous!!??
One of the most beautiful women in the world
She’s 80!, i just wish she’d stop dyeing her hair…
@@Quaker-tc8ue She has now!!
@@lisaboolee I’ve seen no evidence of it…..which means nothing, i know.
Betty!!!!
This Stephanie Powers looks like Fiona Bruce.
Disapointed inthought it was the woman from murder she wrote. Well bea arthur keeps me happy.
Maravikhosa entrevistas
its fine she seemed to have a good time..
This is so 90's and gay!!
Whoever posted this spelt Stefanie's name wrong!🤬
I know, drives me crazy. Spelling was in elementary school for goodness sake.
@@lorimiller4301 you not only take every chance you get to slander “your role model” Stefanie Powers, but you also are nasty towards folks whose first language might not be english.
It looks like Bea is barefoot.
She was.
Indeed tasteless show!

0 7
Two class Acts, very inappropriately there... they handled it like Champs but I was embarrassed for them.
He talks too much. I wanted to hear more from The Great Bea Arthur.
Must have been very awkward for Bea to be there
Z
What a waste of their divine presence.

It was her time in the first part.
Disrespectful. I know. Fuck off
I agree he was totally disrespectful and wasted a great opportunity to interview a legend.
She had already spoken in the 1st part.
Dumbest show I ever watched..it is an insult to comedy and the great actresses they had as guests
So his show was crap first before it became good
worst of all his shows
why?
Stephanie Powers is even duller after Bea Arthur.
What a foolish show. Nothing against Bea Arthur and Stephanie Powers.
why? it's funny.
Graham’s ok-He’s a bit of a tit but he’s funny on occasion I’m not fussed on many Irish or British comedians tbh. American comedy is funnier. Bea was a legend.
American comedy is funnier? Hahaha NO
Since when was American comedy funnier? Cheesier definitely but not funnier
The show should have been all about Bea Arthur...
why? they are BOTH super...
This is the second half. The first half was all Bea Arthur.
