Hugh is a nice guy. He seems at ease here bantering with the host. Nice to see that instead of tense and ugly questions. This was relaxed and refreshing.
Well said, Yvonne. I'm the mug of milk that was already off BEFORE it was put in the Sun, and has now become an alien. Mr. Grant, however, is most definitely a fine vintage, from a gene pool that just gets more dashing and handsome with time. One small note, however...what is the dealeeo with his shirt? It looks like he spilled something on his own shirt and had to borrow one from a staffer. Is it just me, or does that shirt not look like it doesn't fit properly? . Very un-Hugh like. Still...very easy on the eyes.
Mr Grant could change that!! There's a vacancy as leader of Conservative Party, aka PM of the UK, in 2019, would be a pleasant change of scenery for the Brits....
I rate Hugh's performance in English Scandal as one of his very best alongside Music and Lyrics and Cloud Atlas in which he was truly superb. He lives next door to a mate of mine and when I go to my mate's place I was always hoping to bump into Hugh to have a little chat. It hasn't happened so far.
4:46, he calls politicians "freaks, weirdos, show business for the ugly" and this Guinness I'm sipping almost comes out my nose. Sir Hugh out here making grown men spill malt beverages with his deadpan humor again.
But that is a quip that has been around for DECADES. Politics is show biz for the ugly. That's like being given credit for the alphabet. AND he really needs a shirt a size OR TWO bigger
president camacho this is hilarious . Sport played with feet should be called handball , one played by hands "Football" . Lost in translation Volleyball .
I hate this argument with every fiber of my being. It's old and tired and just plain idiotic. The US (and not even just the US) has a different word for a sport....a sport. A sport that will be played the exact same way no matter what you call it and whose difference in name has absolutely no bearing on anyone's life. Why can't people seem to live with that?? We also have different spelling and words for what we call flashlights, parking lots, elevators, etc. Being a cliche, obnoxious snob who screams "it's football, not soccer!" just shows a complete lack of cultural awareness.
@@gomogo2000 That's because you might be too young like most of that audience: long before mobile phones existed, phones used to look very different, imagine who they looked like?......
The person Thorpe was supposedly involved with was called Scott. I remember the quiz of the day was "What has Thorpe and Captain Kirk got in common?" Answer: "They've both beamed up Scotty".
No he's not, go and re-watch his earlier films to remind yourself of how very handsome he was, now he looks like he is, a middle-aged man. Elizabeth Hurley on the other hand has definitely improved with age.
Watch him in Maurice. Its his first ever lead role. Beautiful film and brilliantly acted by Grant and James Wilby. You watch it once and it will never leave you.
There was a comment 2 days ago on Colbert show that he/she wanted Hugh to visit Seth because they resembled each other. Hope you are happy now that your wish is granted. Lol
N Naim omg so glad i found this comment 😂 ive been catching up on colbert this past few days and i just saw hughs interview there today i think and i totally saw that comment and now i see this interview! Awesome haha! I too hope the OP is happy haha
It seems Mr Grant is so much more comfortable in his own skin these days and it's very sexy to hear him speaking about important issues. Perhaps he will be actual PM one day, not just pretend to be one in a movie :-)
I just LOVE Seth. I think he should get an Award from the American Psychiatric Assn. for helping to save the collective sanity of all rational, sane Citizens during the dark days of "alternative facts", ....AND ...you gotta have some serious kahoonas to pull out your bad hair photos, just to get a laugh. Seth is just such a sweetie - between the telling of baby #2's delivery in the Condo foyer ( bringing us all to tears) to his too-cute giggle, he is just the real deal.. Actually, the set is currently occupied by two of the hottest guys in the business. 👍😊
I thought A Very English Scandal was the best UK produced drama I had seen this year until I saw The Bodyguard with Richard Madden and Keeley Hawes. Excellent performances from Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw though. It will be an interesting battle come awards time.
@@ivanabratos2893 Ok, just thought about your comment about old telephones and got it. I'm over 60 and no longer imagine a landline when someone says "telephone." 📞
Both of them -- those side-by-side pics were drool-worthy. And Grant has been crush-worthy ever since I saw him in "Maurice." Too bad his character in that movie didn't get to go all the way with the James Willoughby character.
Great interview & Seth is so cute thinking he resembles Hugh ... lol Unfortunately Hugh's description of politics & politicians is where we are now in 2020 !!
I think Hugh meant two telephone booths. Booths in England are/or were, red. There are referred to as red phone boxes. I think he said it , because Seth was wearing a red jacket. I just don't know why Hugh would say it about himself, since he was wearing a tux.
deedee green I think he did mean how their bangs in the pictures hang on the sides of their foreheads which make them look like (old school) telephones. ☎️
It is a shame that English team was very close to making it this year. I supported them although I am not English. I honestly didn't expect them to win over France but making it to the finale would have been great enough.
A few years ago there was a tragic case of two little girls that went missing in the UK in the Liverpool area.After a huge investigation and police searching every inch of the ground and water in the area the worst fears were beginning to be the most likely outcome, until there was a glimpse of hope when there was some activity on the phone of one of the girls, the families were desperately holding on to the possibility that they were still alive.... In the end a man was arrested and the bodies of the girls recovered it was heartbreaking. During the investigation the police discovered that the girls were already dead when the phone was activated, the evidence lead them to a private investigator who had hacked the phone on behalf of a scandal Sunday paper " the news of the world" owned by the Australian Murdoch group. The same family that owns sky sports and several news agencies and TV and radio stations around the world. The high court forced the paper to close and caused a lot of tension and demands for tougher laws and penalties for breaching journalistic ethics.... lots of celebrities and even the royal family were victims of telephone hacking
Politicians.... "... not paid very much...". Hhm, well UK Members of Parliament start on around £85,000 + expenses. Add on a significant chunk to that if you're a Minister. Have to say..... £85,000 a year sounds quite good to me.
And Hugh Famous boom was first and he is british, but you know How Americans are...We are first and so the best...I guess they love Seth more cause he is well spoken and Grant cause an Actor
1:134 England could have taken full advantage of Germany's early exit, plus the Netherlands' and Italy's total absence and Spain, Portugal, Brazil and Argentina being knocked out to go on and win the trophy. Instead, they gave an absolutely pathetic performance losing the semi-final to Croatia (Croatia!). Then they even lost the 3rd place play-off. In the final, France showed everybody how easy it was to beat Croatia.
thyere not paid poorly. those MPs are well paid. thats the reason theyre going for it. Anyway its mostly the upper classes....they have money ....they want prestige and power
Still haven't won it I finally got around to watching A Very English Scandal, Hugh Grant gets better as he gets older. However, Hugh got one thing wrong, politicians are very well paid, especially MPs.
Younger Hugh I didn't really care for... well except in Maurice and Bridget Jones's, But I much like this Hugh 😍 Hugh is brilliant in A Very English Scandal. Him and Ben Wishaw were both brilliant. Brilliant interview by Seth and he and his team did their research well.
Hugh is a nice guy. He seems at ease here bantering with the host. Nice to see that instead of tense and ugly questions. This was relaxed and refreshing.
Hugh Grant is so adorable. I love his sweet and humorous sense of humor. One of my favs.
"humorous sense of humor"
Hugh Grant is still a cheeky, posh gentleman!
Love listening to him talk!!!
He ages like a fine wine ..... and here is me ....aging like a mug of milk in the Sun ....
Yvonne NippsOnRibbs .. We all age differently😊✌.
Sahiry Gnobehi just not fair 😭 😉
Well said, Yvonne. I'm the mug of milk that was already off BEFORE it was put in the Sun, and has now become an alien.

He's got staff :D
Yvonne NippsOnRibbs ...we’ll also age like fine wine😁😁
“Politics is show-biz for the uglies”! :-D
Starting in the 70's no truer axiom has been said. We have reached the apex today.
Mr Grant could change that!! There's a vacancy as leader of Conservative Party, aka PM of the UK, in 2019, would be a pleasant change of scenery for the Brits....
not original
Sip!! Thats why all the Jefferson s and Lincoln are all extra gorgeous but they found they do it better at keeping it real!! Je
And LOL we don’t have any problems with our msm “news”
90% of US media owned by 6 tax-dodging corporations.
I always think Seth looks a little like Ben Stiller
Root yes, they could play brothers, too. Or at least cousins.
Haha 😂 yes
Seth looks like Ben Stiller and Hugh Grant yet Hugh Grant doesn’t look like Ben Stiller. Lol
I thought he was but I'm from the uk 🤣 🇬🇧
I love it that his friends since 1982 still get together for a "bundle" to watch the big game.
I rate Hugh's performance in English Scandal as one of his very best alongside Music and Lyrics and Cloud Atlas in which he was truly superb. He lives next door to a mate of mine and when I go to my mate's place I was always hoping to bump into Hugh to have a little chat. It hasn't happened so far.
is ur friend a millionaire or somethin??
Yes.@@reviewmaplin6387
+borjastick im not however my father is
In case you will see him please tell him I am an avid fan!
Honestly - Paddington 2 is one of his best ever performances. Impeccable comic timing
"Show business for the ugly" and all the other things he says, he is charming
I didn't expect to be reminded about Germany in the world cup. I broke out in tears again
So did I, but they were tears of joy.
What ever country you are from. I'm gonna dance with joy when they are out
I was legitimately laughing when Germany lost, it was hilarious
Greetings from Argentina. We probably deserved to be out more than you but we played better in the last game. Until next World Cup, I guess.
Lukas Beck 🤣🤣Trigger warning.
4:46, he calls politicians "freaks, weirdos, show business for the ugly" and this Guinness I'm sipping almost comes out my nose.
Sir Hugh out here making grown men spill malt beverages with his deadpan humor again.
But that is a quip that has been around for DECADES. Politics is show biz for the ugly.
That's like being given credit for the alphabet.
AND he really needs a shirt a size OR TWO bigger
"Sipping Guinness" 😮 As an Irish woman I can't imagine Guinness ever being sipped. You gotta split the G in the first sip! 😂👍☘️
Hugh and Seth, they look like brothers. :)
camelshit Seth played him on SNL....
camelshit Seth looks like Hugh’s goody little brother.
And so is Ben Stiller a little look alike
its time my dear, for annual eye exam.
Alex Moffat from SNL could be their younger brother! Moffat does an amazing Hugh Grant impression.
I love Seth so much just because he calls football as "Football" and not Soccer .
Soccer sounds like really really negative curse word .
president camacho this is hilarious . Sport played with feet should be called handball , one played by hands "Football" .
Lost in translation Volleyball .

I agree and I’m British
He also aquiesced to calling 'Pig pile' a 'bundle' to accommodate his guest. Fine host there.
Blame the British. It’s their word. It’s short for association football.
He is so effortlessly funny.
love his crazy honesty about himself and others ... we not all perfect ...
I’m from Panama. I’m just excited he mentioned Panama
This was a challenging role and Hugh Grant played it brilliantly.
Because he’s a very similar character
the "two phones" line was dope, the audience didn't get it thought lol
I didn't get it...
@@gomogo2000Me neither. Don't think the interviewer did. Doubt Christianlambert4388 did either.
@@gomogo2000 That's because you might be too young like most of that audience: long before mobile phones existed, phones used to look very different, imagine who they looked like?......
What an enjoyable interview. Well done!
The person Thorpe was supposedly involved with was called Scott. I remember the quiz of the day was "What has Thorpe and Captain Kirk got in common?" Answer: "They've both beamed up Scotty".
I wish folks would heed what he’s saying about politicians and the news outlets. Scary as hell!
But! I also think he’s incredibly charming!
Decades of gorgeous, adorable, and hysterically charming...LOVE Hugh Grant..
Listening to Hugh talk is the best way to start the NY ..... !
Hugh is better looking n sexier than twenty years ago

It's unfair how some men improve with age.
No he's not, go and re-watch his earlier films to remind yourself of how very handsome he was, now he looks like he is, a middle-aged man. Elizabeth Hurley on the other hand has definitely improved with age.
Very handsome and positiv Hugh👍
I know! And ripped!
"He showed initiative, he brought the knife." Thank god Fulham is back in the EPL
His Beautiful English Accent is Adorable... ❤❤🇬🇧
Until I saw A Very English Scandal I dismissed Hugh Grant as a one trick pony. In this film he shows what a good actor he is.
Watch him in Maurice. Its his first ever lead role. Beautiful film and brilliantly acted by Grant and James Wilby. You watch it once and it will never leave you.
He great in The Gentlemen too! Really interesting role 😄
@@rumblefish9 yes! I think that was the first film I saw him in.
Playing the baddie suits him! Like in Paddington
I agree 👍💯
Love Hugh, he's always value for money when being interviewed 👍😁
This programme is fantastic, Hugh Grants best performance so far
There was a comment 2 days ago on Colbert show that he/she wanted Hugh to visit Seth because they resembled each other. Hope you are happy now that your wish is granted. Lol
N Naim omg so glad i found this comment 😂 ive been catching up on colbert this past few days and i just saw hughs interview there today i think and i totally saw that comment and now i see this interview! Awesome haha! I too hope the OP is happy haha

It seems Mr Grant is so much more comfortable in his own skin these days and it's very sexy to hear him speaking about important issues. Perhaps he will be actual PM one day, not just pretend to be one in a movie :-)
PM...seriously, what planet do you live on!
Yeap!! But the movies i reqlly like of hid are the ones at his begginngs sweet romantic and extra funny!! We want more !! Mr. Grant s managers please
It´s called "getting older"....
Hugh Grant is my spirit animal.
Two lovely, funny human beings.
I just love Hugh
I just LOVE Seth. I think he should get an Award from the American Psychiatric Assn. for helping to save the collective sanity of all rational, sane Citizens during the dark days of "alternative facts", ....AND ...you gotta have some serious kahoonas to pull out your bad hair photos, just to get a laugh.

HUGH GRANT is quite simply, one of THE MOST CHARMING, ADORABLE GUYS on the planet! He is IRRESISTIBLE!!
High Grant is a real hero exposing Murdoch by wiring himself up and went undercover all on his own.
Well said 👍
My respect for this man went up 1000% after that and his work with Hacked Off.
He's a good actor and legend. Showing his true age.
I thought A Very English Scandal was the best UK produced drama I had seen this year until I saw The Bodyguard with Richard Madden and Keeley Hawes. Excellent performances from Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw though. It will be an interesting battle come awards time.
Tony Morris you're right, the bodyguard was soooooo good!
yes The Bodyguard was great, but the best is Line of Duty.
A Very English Scandal is more a dark comedy, while Bodyguard was more a thriller.
I wish Seth had talked more about A Very English Scandal
me too, such a great show
OMG Seth with the Hugh Grant haircut is AMAZING
How dry is that audience, that telephone joke went under appreciated😩
Yes, I thought I'd misheard it because nobody laughed but me. Perhaps it's a younger audience and they don't all know what old phones looked like:-D
@@ivanabratos2893 Ok, just thought about your comment about old telephones and got it. I'm over 60 and no longer imagine a landline when someone says "telephone." 📞
DILF alert😄😄
i dont know why, but i have always loved him. he is so charming to me
Katrine Troelsen .. With all he's been through. Yeah he is.
Both of them -- those side-by-side pics were drool-worthy. And Grant has been crush-worthy ever since I saw him in "Maurice." Too bad his character in that movie didn't get to go all the way with the James Willoughby character.
Nothing is less attractive than a man who cannot cherish Elizabeth Hurley imho
I love the hair... even ever since Four Weddings and a Funeral I have been a fan of his hair...
A fantastic series, also because Hugh Grant is so great as Thorpe. Wow.
Hugh looks like an older Seth when looking at the camera.
Hugh is awesome 👏🏻 ... a cheeky bugger . I like him 😂
Hugh Grant legendary smile
Hugh is a blinky legend
Seth M. is very good at interviewing. A pleasant surprise.
I love the way he tapped (was it the table or his lap) with enthusiasm :)
Great interview & Seth is so cute thinking he resembles Hugh ... lol
Unfortunately Hugh's description of politics & politicians is where we are now in 2020 !!
3:02 aww that's adorable lol
"Politics is like show business for the ugly" Classic!
This man always has been so adorable!!! And a very english scandal is freaking amazing. Love Hugh Grant so much 💜
Still so charming! Love Seth but he’s no Hugh!
Dinkydo Dinky 😄😄 the shade of it all.
He forgot to say that the lover was trying to blackmail him for £30! He would have been so much better off just paying the 30 pounds! 😂😂
3:17 Seth tries to figure out what Grant said and malfunctions haha a rare slip up from a seasoned pro
Did he say "we look like two telephones"?
Those of us who remember rotary phones got it. Seth definitely falls in that age bracket. And it was a hilarious reference.
I think Hugh meant two telephone booths. Booths in England are/or were, red. There are referred to as red phone boxes. I think he said it , because Seth was wearing a red jacket. I just don't know why Hugh would say it about himself, since he was wearing a tux.
deedee green I think he did mean how their bangs in the pictures hang on the sides of their foreheads which make them look like (old school) telephones. ☎️
Gorgeous positively gorgeous.
It is a shame that English team was very close to making it this year. I supported them although I am not English. I honestly didn't expect them to win over France but making it to the finale would have been great enough.
That hairstyle looks great on Hugh Grant's face, but that's Hugh Grant's face.
"...cause we sort of hate him." 😁
Oh Hugh, this is why I ❤ you. Lol!
I don't understand what's going on but im just smiling here... oh hugh grant 🤣😅
This is such a British interviews lol
Hugh is lovely
Audience members younger than 30 not getting the telephones joke at all.
Yes :( what does it mean?
Google old telephone images 😂
Yes tbh I was bewildered by that joke
hugh is just sooo..
i can't even..
❤❤❤
Haa I can't believe he didn't mention that he did an impression of him in his SNL audition!
Love love Grant

Great video!
I watched all three episodes today, it was so funny.
Politics : "Showbiz for the ugly" LOL
Jesus they do look like eachother.
Hugh had a good last laugh when heard the American's don't have the phone hack scandal ,,,,,, hehehe
Poor Seth looks like Hugh Grant's stand in in those shots.
And Hugh Famous boom was first and he is british, but you know How Americans are...We are first and so the best...I guess they love Seth more cause he is well spoken and Grant cause an Actor
Hugh ❤️
England lost that match but we have gone on to reach the semi-finals, we haven't been that far since 1990
Jeremy Thorpe. His finest hour.
He always makes me laugh 😂
We really did believe it was coming home. Man what a summer.
Where can I watch a very English scandal?
i adamantly refuse to believe anyone who tells me that these two aren't distantly related
hugh is seth in the future
except hugh is probably the sexiest man alive and seth is average looking
the second I click the video, I start waiting for Seth to do his Hugh grant impression. If I didn't, I will be gently quietly mad at Seth.
1:134 England could have taken full advantage of Germany's early exit, plus the Netherlands' and Italy's total absence and Spain, Portugal, Brazil and Argentina being knocked out to go on and win the trophy.

Always?
NEVER
Two telephones 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Show business for the ugly; so is trial law. Trust me
I’m a lawyer.
Younger Hugh I didn't really care for... well except in Maurice and Bridget Jones's, But I much like this Hugh 😍 Hugh is brilliant in A Very English Scandal. Him and Ben Wishaw were both brilliant. Brilliant interview by Seth and he and his team did their research well.
man, i wish i could age like this guy. truly handsome.
It sounds almost like "I Love You To Death"
showbiz for the ugly took me outtt 😂
Louise Lombard once thought I was a dead ringer for Hugh when she sat next to me in Beaton’s in Richmond.
@dellwright1407 a life of missed opportunities
Do people in the US really call it a pig pile? We call it a doggy pile where I live
We call it as 'Hamburger' in S.Korea
clearly he's more attractive off screen but a nice all round sort of person
An Italian would have known how to carry out a hit.
Thorpe just asked a friend who got an acquaintance to do it. He'd never done one before and the gun jammed after he shot the dog.
Seth Meyers looks more like Gareth Southgate.
