Thank you so much! In Germany, the character of J.R. Ewing was so popular that even his German dubbing actor Wolfgang Pampel became famous. He is still the German dubbing voice of Harrison Ford today, almost 80 years old.
I remember this interview. Wogan didn't usually present this show but so much was he linked to Dallas in the UK imagination that he was drafted in. Also, the show, usually watched by relatively few people, was specially extended for this edition, such was the public interest in Larry's first major interview on UK TV and talk of Dallas and JR's shooting at fever pitch.
Dallas was huge never missed a episode of over 400+ old or new Dallas sue Ellen sister was my favourite , she was so stunning with that fabulous smile and mouth, and figure
1980: LARRY HAGMAN on DALLAS Fame as J.R. EWING | Classic Interviews | BBC Archive 10.11.24 1919pm a vast tradition of bad guys who we all love to hate exists in tv and cinema... i enjoyed the old bad guy... i think i was meant to wax lyrical about nasty nick, dirty den, JR.... but no need.................... a very amusing bad guy. sadly missed. i dream of jeanie was cool, also.
@@neiltaylor6645 I agree ,look at the rubbish now hardly any one man light entertainment talk shows with guests now apart from Norton he is late night as well as Ross..
Larry knew he had had a hit when he predicted Dallas would be on 14 to 20 years. That included the continuation of the series on Turner Network Television. By God, he was right.
Hagman loved doing the show and playing J.R. Ewing as much as we loved him and it too. And like the rest of the DALLAS cast he was delighted the show had a devoted fan base in the U.K., including Wogan who surely was the biggest celebrity fan as you can see here: he often spoke about it on his Radio 2 weekday morning show, and some of the cast appeared as guests on his BBC 1 chat show and BLANKETY BLANK.
Larry Hagman had a tradition of not speaking on Sundays and communicated through whistling, which baffled his co-stars. Larry Hagman observed ‘Silent Sundays’ for 25 years as a self-care precaution after straining his voice during a taping. His co-stars and loved ones found his habit frustrating and felt excluded. Hagman’s dedication to maintaining his voice outweighed any inconvenience caused. Hagman found solace and peace through intentional silence, treating it as a form of meditation practice.

Yeah, this was 1980. Wogan was already building a following on the radio and this was effectively a pilot for his BBC One chat show. Friday Night Saturday Morning was a useful vehicle for several guest hosts, but only Wogan - and perhaps Tim Rice - proved they have what it takes. Its worst host (by far) was former PM Harold Wilson!
Larry Hagman was a proper star. He loved the adoration and knew how to play to the audience. Wonderful actor.
Knew how to not take himself too seriously but played the iconic part of JR so well.
Remember watching this. Larry Hagman is hilarious

Yes, and acted
Excellent show and what a fantastic idea to have Larry Hagman an awesome actor and great character!❤
Takes me back to a time when we admired and looked up to people on the TV.
Celeb worship is pathetic
@@gunsharck Just like the celeb worshippers. Like religious freaks, only not as bad.
But what about all the wonderful people on Strictly:p

Please post Victoria Principal’s first interview on Wogan up on here.🙏🤞

"Who are these 'Just Stop Oil' guys you have over here? We're here to dig under Stonehenge. "
Awesome thanks. Remember watching this Larry Hagman proper Star ⭐
This guy… he was the king of the one liners without doubt.
Such a cool dude
Don't forget he was also Tony Nelson in I Dream of Jeannie- I have that show on DVD!

What a character....
Now you need to put up his appearance on Shooting Stars- he had no idea what was going on!

OMG that was 45 years ago.
Typical JR. so funny. Thanks Jonathon
Great man
He was great ❤
I remember that one special episode of Dallas... Who shot J.R. ?
JR was only supposed to be a side part in a show that was going to be all about Pam and Bobby's love story. But JR and Sue-Ellen stole the show.
Wogan - a late night show before the BBC ruined his alternative tongue in cheek humour by over-exposing him on primetime
Quick witted ❤
22-11-63.
He was so handsome in i dream of Jeannie.
What a completely weird interview 😕
I preferred Larry Hagman in I Dream Of Genie.
21:08
Easy impersonation for Bill Hader
WAT IN DA GAWD DAM HELL
He is pissed as a fart.
Didn't know state broadcaster had a repeat channel. Hey BBC state broadcaster . I don't pay your tax . Quit ten years ago. You tube best . And Netflix
Not trustworthy Larry 😊 and Terry little better not much 😮 and sword 🗡️ in the kane😊
Wogan didn't exist in 1980, this is 1990
Read the description.

@@philiphawksley9690 Yes, "What's On Wogan" started 2 months later, Saturday early evening.
Audience members wearing "I love JR" and "I hate JR" t-shirts very much pins it to 1980. 🙂
The clothes, the hair, FFS mate you taking the piss?
Dallas was awful
It was gripping
