Isn't it nice for an actor to be interviewed by a kid and treat him as an equal. Beautiful old school attitude. God bless him
Andrew Sachs was almost 50 years old when this interview was filmed. He looks much younger. Really charming gentleman actor who had no affectations - very down to earth, humble guy in all the interviews I've seen over the years.
Manual is the part he is most known for - he died in 2016 in a nursing home and suffered with dementia and was wheel chair bound, and could not speak for the last four years of his life - life's a bitch ain't it. RIP Andrew
this is amazing it's like looking at a completely different person from his role as manuel. brilliant actor
It IS looking at a completely different person. Sachs was a character actor.
What a lovely, normal and honest bloke. You'll keep us laughing forever.... What a great thing to leave behind. RIP x
Thankyou for sharing this gem. Andrew Sachs comes across as being such sweet gentle man and has a voice like pure silk everything he does he does to perfection. aside from his well known acting and voice over work he is a renowned reciter of poetry,and has done so on many recordings.
The young interviewer is brilliant too, whats his story is he still interviewing these days
The interviewer was great along with Andrew. Rest in peace Mr Andrew Sachs you will be remembered by generations of fans.
The interviewer looks about twelve.
Andrew really rocked as a master of physical comedy. He added a lot to a very funny program.
Great actor, he did a wonderful job in Fawlty towers as Manuel!
What a wonderful piece of history. The young lad did a very professional job here. I wish today, interviewers would allow their guests to talk in such long informative sentences. And this young lad could have become a great TV host. Wherever did he end up? And of course it is a joy to see another interview with the almost timid Andrew Sachs. What a sympathetic person he was. Thank you for sharing this on here
This young interviewer does it right. Asks open questions, listens and dont interrupt untill the subject is "empty".
Also what he doesnt do that many interviewers today do, is adding his own thoughts and or experience into his questions.
The focus is on the guest, and nothing else.
It’s all terrific! And I love that it takes place in Andrew’s home.
surprised at his posh accent ; he gave us all so much pleasure!
Yes, the real Andrew Sachs was soooo different to the character he played in Fawlty Towers. John Cleese said that you would never think that Sachs was such a brilliant comic actor because he was very quiet and seemed more like an intellectual or a retired bank manager than a comedian. But,once he put on the moustache to play Manuel, he was a different man!!! 😂 And he was. But the real Andrew Sachs was born to a Catholic mother and Jewish father in Berlin in 1930, and they fled from certain death at the hands of the Nazis to England in 1938. So Andrew Sachs grew up in England and lived his whole life there. Which is why he has an English accent. It's not really a posh accent, my father speaks the same way as Andrew does. I think it's more of a middle class, public school accent, and my father went to public school back in the 1940's and 50's. Love from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia ❤️
What a great actor Andrew Sachs must have been. He was truly able to make a character appear to be real.
My god this was gold.
So fun to see the actor talk about his role.
That makes you understand how much in character they are.
This is as far from Manuel you can come... Great upload!
Fawlty Towers star Andrew Sachs, who
played hapless Spanish waiter Manuel in the BBC sitcom, has died aged

This interview came top in class for the interviewer's Media Studies GCSE coursework project.
You're right! As I have said many times before, he WAS indeed a student!!!!
I enjoyed this very much. I'm a huge Fawlty Towers fan. :)
yeah everyone is
LOVED his cameo in Revenge of the Pink Panther. Just seeing him face to face with Peter Sellers for a few seconds was legendary 😁😁
On those trays =
Uno dos tres
Best line ever...!
R.I.P. Andrew.
Andrew Sachs comes across as a polite and humble person. A very talented actor of different mediums.
Unlike those people who verbally abused him.
Alex Davies what do you mean?
Beth 123 he means russell brand and johnathon ross calling Andrew Sachs and them telling him that his grandaughter Georgina Baillie had sex with russell brand.
@@anarchistatheist1917 Yes. Apparently made her relationship with her grandfather more difficult. Yet she wrote a couple of songs seemingly to capitalize on this incident.
Funny how he didn't really like the show, but it was the only real highlight of his career. Manuel was so popular, that they even incorporate a similar character in the "Hello, Nurse!" movie, played by the same actor.
May he Rest in Peace...... "QUE......?"
RIP

Ev- ent- ually.

Wow! Andrew doesn't at all have an accent (I mean he doesn't even sound German).

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
How old is this interviewer? There is no way he is college age. Yet Sachs is talking to him as if he is an adult who understands everything he's talking about. 😂
He was an undergraduate university student.
it sure looks like late 70's... And it actually says in the beginning of the video... 1970-1980.
What’s the interviewer doing now?
Enjoying retirement.....
I want to know what he looks like today.
What is WitNit?
If you type that sentence into google.... you get this result...
"a scatterbrained or stupid person"
i know naaathing
@@DavisSchulz What the hell are you doing here? 😂
Wasn't he in the Are You Being Served movie?
Andrew Sachs played Don Carlos Bernardo, the moderately dishonest hotel manager.
Yes. The hotel manager who planned to lock his female employee in his room and rape her.
Interesting.
