This is one of my favourite interviews, Paul is so lovely. He makes such a valid point about Russell at the end as well. As far as I'm concerned, haters and tabloids don't give Russ nearly enough credit for what he's achieved and how hard it was for him to get there. He's a gorgeous, charismatic man - scandals aside, he is genuinely brilliant.
What a a human, entertaining show. They all talk as though they have known each other for years - playful, funny; delightful. Russell Brand is actually quite a genuinely nice guy.
I love Russell Brand and am fascinated by him. Whether he's doing stand-up, acting in a movie, appearing on a talk show or getting caught by TMZ, his essential goodness shines through--which is why he's so successful!
Paul O'Grady expresses my sentiments exactly.The guy will always be a legend for what he has achieved and overcome and what he continues to achieve and overcome.
I love the Paul O'Grady Show! He has a wicked sense of humour and comes across as a very nice person. I never used to like Russell Brand but took notice of him after he wrote the lovely words about Amy Winehouse after she died. He is actually very funny and has a great way with words. A winning duo on this programme in my opinion!
what paul said at the end is exactly what ive been telling russell haters( i know...how?) for ages. its so true and he deserves more respect from the tabloids than he currently gets :)
I thoroughly enjoy the talented Paul O'Grady and his book makes a fantastic read. I can clearly understand how this show was a winner at the National Television Awards in 2008. Russell Brand is very watchable also.
Paul does say something very poignant here: about Russell overcoming addiction and hardship - and still remaining a gentleman, an intelligent and genuine individual. I don't think enough people see it that way, haters especially need to get the facts before jumping to conclusions about Russell Brand.
aw that was really sweet what Paul said to Russell at the end :) and so true. and I must say I think Russell is looking rather fabulous in this vid too!
aww!thats a such a sweet thing at the end when the host said such nice things about russell. so true, he has achieved so much but people seem to neglect that achievement sadly. they focus too much on his persona--once you get past that its really hard to dislike the guy and suprising he is not rude complte contrast to what you might think. i am also curious--he does a wayw tih words--he did say he didnt really go to school or he was that good of a student--how excatly is he so well read ??
i've got the book and the dvd and they are fab and highly reccomended to any russell fan. i love russell and parts of his book brought me to tears. some things that he has been through and triumphed over are amazing. the pics in it are sweet too. if any of you have it look at the one of him as a baby in the incubater his hair has already started to form the russell look with his lil tuft of hair stuck up. he's great i love him!!!
When he and matt morgan were talking about russell writing a book matt joked "what you gonna call it my booky wooky" but russell must of decided to change it to just my booky wook.
I don't understand peoples obsession with celebrity either but i find Russel Brand quite intelligent and has an excellent vocabulary which he uses thoughtfully. I would enjoy his Booky Wooky because I myself have overcome addictions and a reckless lifestyle, I just find people that live their lives to the extreme more interesting than others who have done everything very correctly.
I could watch Russell brand all day. Infact I've been binge watching most of his crazy shit ere on the UA-cam stuffs. It's great. If we could ask let our inner Russell loose on the world it would be a better place, a bit bonkers, but great. My inner Russell comes out at home, but wouldn't dare do it in the real world. Drive my family mad with my antics. 😁😁
I do miss Paul O Grady, he was always so warm and friendly to everyone. He was one of my favourite people, for sure.
Aw I miss the Paul O'grady show. What a lovely compliment at the end too ♥
I loved the Paul O'Grady show. He brought out the best in all his guests and if he mentioned a book, he'd read it. Such a lovely guy. Such a loss.
I'm American and I love Russell, but this Mr. O'Grady fellow is absolutely lovely!!
Aw I miss Paul o Grady what a lovely interview

God love Paul for acknowledging the "black dog" ... a survivor respecting another survivor
the lovely Russell Brand - fan since 2006. His evolution is quite amazing.
he's so cheeky and flirty and camp and friendly 😊

Paul O'Grady expresses my sentiments exactly.The guy will always be a legend for what he has achieved and overcome and what he continues to achieve and overcome.

paul was really kind to russell at the end, rare to see on the tv interview scene, its usually promote and get out.

A lot of these types say things like this, but O Gray was 100% genuine. 2 great blokes!!
Russells timing is phenomenal

This was a great show, aw miss him so much ❤

what paul said at the end is exactly what ive been telling russell haters( i know...how?) for ages.
its so true and he deserves more respect from the tabloids than he currently gets
:)
One of the few interviewers who has kept up with Russel
I love Paul for saying that in the end!
I thoroughly enjoy the talented Paul O'Grady and his book makes a fantastic read. I can clearly understand how this show was a winner at the National Television Awards in 2008. Russell Brand is very watchable also.

He's like a real-life Capt. Jack Sparrow :-D
Russell is f-ing amazing! Him and Noel are so brilliant together!! I love them!
one of the truly great performers of our time.he is in fact likely to go down in history as the greatest of all time

I love both of them!
Paul in a loveable grandad way and Russell would just straight up get it!

Russell is too funny, and brilliant
Oh, I got a bit teary-eyed at the end, when Paul got a bit serious... So true!
Russell lights up at the sound of applause :)
He's so eloquent! I love him!
Paul does say something very poignant here: about Russell overcoming addiction and hardship - and still remaining a gentleman, an intelligent and genuine individual.
I don't think enough people see it that way, haters especially need to get the facts before jumping to conclusions about Russell Brand.
THe woman on the couch is Pam Ayers. She is a famous British poet.
"I've achieved 22.5 days of celibacy..." I died. Paul is a sweetheart: & got the best out of him.
Lol when he said 'some of them are right pervs'.
I can just imagine old russ in there lol bless him.
I love how he dresses like 80's glam!
aw that was really sweet what Paul said to Russell at the end :) and so true.
and I must say I think Russell is looking rather fabulous in this vid too!
Russell could make a stone blush, bloody hell
paul o'grady is such a love.

i am also curious--he does a wayw tih words--he did say he didnt really go to school or he was that good of a student--how excatly is he so well read ??
hes a fan of oscar wilde
He wasn’t a good student but thy doesn’t mean he didn’t read a lot
i like his raw honesty in the book, hes a nice man.

He is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO attractive & funny!
i've got the book and the dvd and they are fab and highly reccomended to any russell fan. i love russell and parts of his book brought me to tears. some things that he has been through and triumphed over are amazing. the pics in it are sweet too. if any of you have it look at the one of him as a baby in the incubater his hair has already started to form the russell look with his lil tuft of hair stuck up. he's great i love him!!!
I Have sooo much respect for him its unreal im reading his book atm at some of the stuff he's been through
It's an iconic look of his, the black leathery outfit and the hair is his most 80s look.
He's the Messiah.
"ill swap it for a tea towel" haha
Was really wanting Ol' Russ to say "you'll never be cold with me all across your chest sweet'art."
Thanks! You're lucky to have met him.
An excellent interview
Comfortable pleasant funny
Russell!
Omg SOOO CUTE!
He has the cutest ever smile x
Years later it comes back to bite - he was always open about it …. No secrets.
i like that host. =] he seems nice.
1st class interviewer! Job well done mate!
what a lovely interview.
"Although,with pam here its unlikely we'll reach midnight.."
Hahaha x
Wow, Paul's a bit of a lovely guy
I looked the host up and he's hilarious. i've never heard of him before (from the US).
Russell is amazing =] ♥
the host is paul o grady and the title of the book is called my booky wooky if u look at the cover of russel's book u will see this is correct
i thought his trousers might of split when he sat down, i always think that about him.
Hes definatly one of the funniest men on tele.
Yeah,I agree, very nice to watch. Thanks
Paul made Russell welled up in the end.
Love Paul.
Pam seemed a good laugh
All three has a brilliant sense of humour
I love him so much, from the first time i saw him on tv. Hes so funny. Brilliant x
Thats a fab interview. I do think however, that Paul O'Grady did start to 'fall' for Russell a bit :-)
He is an amazing public speaker/interviewer.
The way Paul put the book down was badass
nice and true words at the end...!
too far
Russell is amazing!! =)
x
So many admirable accents accents in the same room. Makes my American face squeal.
havent finished watching this yet but so far...good to hear an interview with someone who actually READ THE BOOK. likin this
beautiful man uuuugggg
When he and matt morgan were talking about russell writing a book matt joked "what you gonna call it my booky wooky" but russell must of decided to change it to just my booky wook.
yeah he makes me think about Johnny tooo!!
Yes, We salute you Russell brand
I don't understand peoples obsession with celebrity either but i find Russel Brand quite intelligent and has an excellent vocabulary which he uses thoughtfully. I would enjoy his Booky Wooky because I myself have overcome addictions and a reckless lifestyle, I just find people that live their lives to the extreme more interesting than others who have done everything very correctly.
Russell is incredibly funny, mostly because he takes himself so not serious. Well, he does, but he knows he's a cartoon, so it's funny of course. :))
great interview, indeed. When this aired, by the way? Thanks! :D
I had to pull some of my sandwhich out of the keyboard after cracking up on Russells addiction and Pam's comments.
ngaw i love how flattered he is at the end
He always makes me smile when he does.
He's done stupid things but I do love him ^^
I’ve read both Paul’s and Russell’s biographies and they’re both brilliant. Paul’s was personally better for me as I’m from Birkenhead
I could watch Russell brand all day. Infact I've been binge watching most of his crazy shit ere on the UA-cam stuffs. It's great. If we could ask let our inner Russell loose on the world it would be a better place, a bit bonkers, but great. My inner Russell comes out at home, but wouldn't dare do it in the real world. Drive my family mad with my antics. 😁😁
It's a Scouse accent because he's from Liverpool (or Birkenhead to be exact).
he walked in like he was on mdma lol
He's brilliant!
Russell's sooo Sweet!!!! Aww ;D
hahahaha, i agree. i don't think he's changed clothes in a few months. but you gotta love him
i blood love that man
