Bold of stephen to assume i didnt find him hot as moriarty
Daneel Potot lmfao i thought the exact same
Imo, if the first time I met someone they told me
"I will burrrnn you!
I will burn! the heart! out of you."
I would not find them attractive.
#ButThatsJustMe
HaHa! True. How dare you, sir? He was already smoking as Moriarty!
Oh yeah, warped as it may be he was definitely hot as Moriarty as well.
Exactly! I was madly in lust with that sick f*cker Moriarty ...
"Don't call me father like it doesn't turn you on" I scream every time he says that
"yes father"
Well he only says it once which means you’ve watched season 2 multiple times and that says a lot about you... you have impeccable taste!
"KNEEL"!!
Look at you calling me father like it doesn't turn you on just to say it.
“Daddy’s had enough nooowwwww~”
Andrew Scott: "Anyway, I'll stop talking about Shakespeare"
Everyone : "Please don't"
Watch him in King Lear, the new-ish Amazon version with Anthony Hopkins, Emma Thomson, et al. Hes soooo good in it! His character's role develops more and more as the movie goes on
Seriously 😂💜
@@rebeccagreen7241 thanks for the recommendation! I watched his hamlet 3h straight and its so engaging and wonderful !
@@rebeccagreen7241 Tennant's in King Lear too!!
@@zoefang4563 Oh yeah! Different production but also amazing 😀😀😀
How dare they devote less than 6 minutes to this man
Ikr what the heck is up with that?
CHINA!
exactly!! he is sooo charming
And he was saying so many interesting things that were so rushed :(
fuck young and old will smith
"So murderous and terrifying, i can't find that attractive "
- well, whatever floats your boat. 🤣🤣
Andrew clearly knows his fan base
He's extremely hot as Moriarty. He's extremely hot, in general.
Yaas! Exactly.
He is not a beautiful person but his personality and looks in a whole is absolutely sexy!
What!?
Simona Petrov He actually IS beautiful
Absolutely
I am glad Steven didn’t interrupt Andrew when he talked about Hamlet.
Stephen is a big Shakespeare fan himself, so that's probably why he let him, because Stephen was interested in what he had to say
I feel bad for Andrew Scott, he deserved a more enthusiastic audience.
Oh, I didn't get that at all. He's the type of guy that when he talks you only realise after that you have been holding your breath. He's very compelling. I think the audience was quiet because they were genuinely fascinated.
Yup, I agree as I was part of the audience that day. People were just listening to what he was saying. Also he didn't stay long at all and was interviewed right after Will Smith who was very energetic. .
The audience was clearly very attentive during this segment-- not at all disengaged. As William Bloor wrote, people tend to listen very intently when Andrew speaks. They tune in to his palpable consideration and settle in instead of constantly guffawing and clapping like seals.
People were listening because he actually had things to say, which is rare in a talk show

His hamlet was some of the best stage acting I’ve ever seen. No one in that room felt those 4 hours. Incredible talent x
Yes! I was fortunate enough to be visiting Dublin at that time and so I decided to fly to London for a day just to see it. Simply incredible.
press team: so we booked you for the late show with stephen colbert to promote this miniseries...
andrew scott: yeah so, anyway, the thing about Hamlet-
The play's the thing. -- As it should be.
“Did you miss me?” -JM
moriarty was fantastically evil. I didn't think I could like him again in 6 minutes.
Yes
Yes😭😭please come back moriarty
Hell yeah!
slm kardeşim hldlydylgldgöxhşc
Too short of an interview. I'd liked to have seen more. Thanks though for giving Andrew Scott some press. He's really quite brilliant as an actor.
Hard to get airtime when the other guest was Will Smith. Stephen couldn't even get a word in.
He was on Graham Norton about a year ago, so that's what 35 minutes of talking but not necessarily with him all the time but it's worth it
"So murderous and terrifying, I can't find that attractive" Said no tumblr user, ever
literally😫
Colbert: "I can't find that attractive"
Anrew: "well whatever floats your boat"
is basically translation to: "well millions of women around the world are thirsting for that murderous terrifying character but like sure whatever floats your boat"
And men, let’s not exclude all of the gay or bi men I’ve met that are also madly in love with Moriarty
@@internalscreaming7566 yes to that!! especially since Andrew is openly gay 🙏🏼
@@JwieJassii
Hell yeah
I personally don't get the attraction to psychotic narcissistic characters. Idk maybe it's less sexy if you've actually dated a person like that. Its scary not sexy
Great translation!!
I'll watch Andrew Scott man spread for 6 min straight no complaints
Handi Cui
I’m not sure he had much of an alternative with that suit.
It was a little too much for my taste. I mean, at least try to have both legs in the same building.
Is it just me, or does Andrew Scott always leave you wanting more of him?! The man is captivating!
The priest is quite hot.
SO HOT
Car scene
I can almost hear this being said out loud
So hot!
This man is just incredible. Attractive, extremely intelligent, well spoken and mad talented. How can you NOT love him.
The way his eyes light up while talking about Shakespeare⭐⭐
I travelled from America to see his Hamlet on the West End. It was a night I will never forget. Andrew is a really lovely human being, we need more people like him in this world.
He is Irish, there a whole country of them.
aine71 not every person from Ireland is an openly gay actor who is super kind to their fan base and who uses their platform to bring light and support to issues like the same sex marriage and abortion votes in Ireland. He’s a kind human being. We all need more of that.
Agree 100% (just don't mind the green pallor of jealousy evident on my face)
I met Andrew Scott once and I’m very happy to tell you that he was the nicest man in the world.
“They didn’t applaud enough”
Us: too transfixed by Andrew’s face and voice to care
He is just so sweet and adorable. And his accent.
One of Ireland's national treasures. A master of his craft and a lovely guy to boot.
He's so charming, I swear there's something hypnotizing about him.
Legs. So. Wide. Apart.
Must be something in the way there ;)
feminist?
Yup... he's a man... way more comfortable that way. Squishin' up your "brovaries" is not at all pleasant.
i thought i was the only one looking at his crotch
unless thats not what you mean--
That freaking suit is too tight for him to move his ass properly.. I swear.. that's why
Sherlock: "if you do this people will die"
JM: "that's what people DO!"
me: "...hes not wrong..."
Lol!! I almost typed that!! I can't help but think of him delivering that line. Thought he might have once, at least, gone Moriarty on Stephen!
One of the best lines of the show.
He was so good as Moriarty..
I love hearing him talk because not enough people are passionate like this.
“At least Fleabag didn’t end up in a pond.” Touché, Stephen. Well-said! I love that Andrew conceded that point.
Thank you for your love 🌹
I'm so glad he's getting more recognition, but this needed to be longer!
I feel like Moriarty was such a good role for him. This interview was almost like watching Moriarty pretending to be normal. He's just so polished.
As a huge lover of Shakespeare AND Andrew Scott, I could hear him talk about Hamlet for hours. His performance is my absolute favorite in that incredible play.
Honestly this was such a nice video. I felt as though this was truly an actor being themselves. No side jokes or what others want to hear. Just a person talking about things they are passionate about, being a human guy.
Still love the way he played Moriarty. Beautifully unhinged, and menacing.
He’s a fantastic actor, even in the smallest roles he has placed
Thank you so much...
Andrew Scott has delivered the most amazing and convincing interpretation of Hamlet I have ever seen! A great actor!
Best actor of his generation in my opinion. Everything I've seen him in, even bit parts, he steals the whole show. Saw a video of one scene of a play he was in. Just him and one other actor. Completely stole the show. It was as if the other actor wasn't even there. This is a man who truly has something to say as an actor, and he knows himself well enough to say it exactly the way it needs to be said through him. I'm grateful to be around to witness and experience his work and grateful that he's becoming more successful and more noticed.
Andrew never apologize for being a Shakespeare nerd! I am too and we love hearing you talk Shakespeare. Stephen too. Could listen to them talk about Hamlet all night! I was waiting for Stephen to tell him that when he was younger he wanted to be Hamlet. I love that story. 🥰🥰
Ok but how come I never realized how freaking intelligent he is. Like he was so true about the priest ordeal, and didn't even joke about it, when it's a topic that a lot of others may try to avoid
Andrew scott has a magnetic personality. I wish he didn't care about keeping his talk short because he made a lot of sense.
Hope he wins an Oscar someday.
Should have won one for All Of Us Strangers.
"Fleabag" is one of the best shows I´ve ever seen and Scott is superb in season two.
The show was already brilliant but season 2 is better than season 1, primarily because of him. His character added a new element to the show that was excellent.
I saw a clip from his Hamlet and I wish I had been able to see it in person. He and the actress playing his mother were MESMERIZING. I was almost in tears.
Was re-watching Band of Brothers and he was in that too.
So many actors who had a part in that show are currently doing great work. Tom Hardy, Michael Fassbender, Damian Lewis, Simon Pegg, James MacAvoy and more.
profound man in american TV talking about deep stuff instead of small talk, *result* : the shortest interview ever on the stephen colbert show
I've loved him for a decade (ever since his one episode in Garrow's Law). So happy to see him getting such international recognition
I highly recommend watching Andrew's Hamlet. He's an extraordinary actor and we don't get to see him enough.
David Tennant was a better Hamlet, IMO
"Murderous and terrifying, how can I find that attractive?"
Stephen has not met the internet.
Barry, Dexter, You - a few popular shows led by very attractive killers.
Edit: as a fannibal, I am surprised I didn't add Hannibal. Well Hannibal is number one.
I was already a fan of bill hader but seeing him in barry just made me love him even more
This is gross
I haven't seen Barry (yet) or You, but at least with Dexter you know you're safe if you aren't a killer yourself. 🤣
Hannibal Lecter
charismatic, hot with sexy accent killers 🤣🤣🤣 which sometimes in real life not all three are present
I just love how nerdy he is. He talks about things in depth because he cares and likes what he does and he is not ashamed of it
Omg yessss. I love Andrew so much. He’s excellent in the movie Pride.
Yes. Such a good movie.
i had a huge crush on Andrew as Moriarty when i first watched Sherlock years back, and it was his role in Black Mirror's "Smithereens" that led me to start watching Fleabag.
He really was exceptional in "Smithereens". Very much agree.
He made a perfect Moriarty!
Surprisingly pro-religion for an openly gay man. Interesting. Love him.
If you believe that God created and loves all of us than it should not be shocking that a gay man might be religious. It is man who might hate gays since the bible is written by men not God.
Ah well, that explains that suit then
@@cl759 What? What's wrong with the suit?
He’s gay? There goes my dream :(
@@drwatsonca6945 can I use that as a quote on my instagram account? I'M not gay but Catholic and I totally agree that god loves us all no matter who we love 😍
He's wonderful! Thank you for giving him the space to let him speak and finish his thoughts...too often (this interview was a little on the cusp) people being interviewed are interrupted.
His Edgar from "King Lear" is AMAZING!!!!! He goes from sympathetically wronged to sympathetically insane and back again seamlessly it's amazing!!!
His accent and mannerisms are just so charming.
Really
A 5 minute conversation between two adults that has more content and meaning than literally 99% on what's television these days.
Well I'd say u are searching for meaning in the wrong part of entertainment
Andrew Scott’s voice needs to be on one of those meditation apps because I could listen to him talk all day long.
No doubt about it.
Wow I feel good where are you writing from....❣️
I love how Stephen Colbert allows his guests to speak and finish their thoughts. Doesn't have the need to constantly hear his own voice.
Andrew Scott is so charming and gorgeous, I could look/listen to him for days!😍
Thanks....❣️ can I talk to you?
As someone who’s been a massive fan since the first time he was on Sherlock, it is thrilling to see him finally getting the more wide-spread recognition he deserves
So, because of this interview I started to watch Fleabag and now I have a crush on a priest.
Welcome to the club ;]
Are you in for a treat if you go back and watch his other work like Blackout, My Life in Film, The Duel, Dead Bodies.
@@jennifermckay5585 He's in band of brothers as well :)
@@kaihG Also, The Stag.
Like the rest of us...
Andrew Scott's Moriarty in Sherlock is the best Moriarty performance I've ever seen.
He'll be 'Hot Priest' for the rest of his life.
New Message maybe we should start the “Hot Hamlet” meme?
Moriarty for me
No, he is Moriarty
@@timbeaton5045 That would have to be shared with David Tennant and Benedict Cumberbatch.
Tim Beaton omg! Great Idea!
He’s simply hot 365
In everything he does
4:50
"I'm a bit of a Shakespeare nerd"
Said to the host who rattles off passages of Shakespeare with his guest at a drop of a hat.
edit: talk to text thinks 2 = to
He is simply endearing. What a brilliant actor!
Andrew Scott: *exist*
Me: this is beautiful. I've looked at it for months now.
I love Scott's sincerity. That's what I love about his performances. He deserves continued accolades and I can't wait for his next performance. Loved him even in his small roles, like 1917 as Leslie.
"Every fairy tale needs a good 'ol fashion villain"
The love story between his and Phoebe Waller-Bridge's character on "Fleabag" was one of the most poignant and believable I have ever seen. Andrew Scott is such great actor!
If he was a priest, I’d stop being an atheist. 😂just so I could listen to him talk a few hours a week
Camille Tow I would still be one, I’d be too ashamed of wanting to fuck a priest as a Catholic.
@@margaritam.9118 Feelinsh shame is essential part of being Catholic 😅😅😅
@Chrissie K My years as a Catholic schoolgirl with nuns want to shove this comment in my parents’ faces. “See? See? Not just me!!”
@Camille Tow From 8-18, I attended a parish with an Irish priest. Listening to his voice was soothing. However, the homilies could get very, very long when he was on a roll.
(I can never watch Fleabag, sadly, because of him. It’s not that both my former pastor and Hot Priest are Irish, Catholic priests. It’s that, to put it delicately, the entire arc of Hot Priest and Fleabag is, um, not unlike something that my actual priest went through when he was younger.)
Who says you have to stop being an atheist to attend church? You don't have to give up your beliefs for him. Unless you're into that
I saw him play the lead in Hamlet at the Howard Pinter theatre in London, summer of 2017. Little did I know it was the performance that was filmed by the BBC for later DVD release. Outstanding performer.
Oh my gosh I saw Andrew Scott a few years ago when he played hamlet, it was an incredible production and he was an absolutely amazing hamlet
I’ve been waiting for this interview for such a long time and it’s finally here
"Well, they only have themselves to blame." Genius!
I totally agree with Andrew Scott, I have long held the opinion that 'Hamlet' is perhaps the greatest play ever written. I watched Andrew doing the 'To be or not to be' soliloquy on UA-cam yesterday which is probably why this video suddenly appeared in my recommended list today.
I have a little mancrush on him...
He was great in Sherlock and Fleabag
Stephen :"meanwhile..."
Audience:*dies from laughter *
Andrew:"I played hamlet"
Audience: *silence *
He's so polite, charming and hot at the same time 🙈🙉😍
Now he is the John Parry of His Dark Materials...along with Phoebe Waller Bridge❤️
They were soulmates all along
Stephen: 'So murderous and terrifying, i can't find this attractive'
Me, looking away:
*Britney Spears - Criminal plays in the background*
"They can only blame themselves". Thank you, Colbert. Thank you.
He needs to be on more talk showsssss , I’ve scoured the Internet for his content , he is a DELIGHT you u grateful people ,
Just too short an interview. What a shame. I met this amazing actor a few months ago and he was one of the most loveliest and genuine human being that I’ve ever met. Very funny, empathic , interesting and interested and just a really good person. And what an actor too. Sooo glad he’s finally being recognised as such.
Andrew is so incredibly good looking.
Too short of an interview that was... And the crowd seemed genuinely uninterested, which goes completely against my impression. I wish this was longer!
I think he's more appreciated in the UK, you should see him on Graham Norton the reaction from the audience was amazing
@@Wiamehekmi Seen it... Mrs Faith and Stephen Fry along with him gave a nice show. I couldn't stop laughing 😀
It's because even his accent cant save him from being extremely boring
B Michael there's always someone like you who will write a comment like that 😒
I don’t think the audience sounded uninterested. I think they were just listening intently to his thoughtful comments. I heard them laugh at a few things he said too
Saying murderous and terrifying isn’t attractive is a BOLD statement.
I knew you from Sherlock and you were so murderous and terrifying i thought how could I find that attractive?
Andrew: haha *war flashbacks
More Andrew Scott less Will Smith =/ This was waaay too short.
Adam Tak yes could have done 2 segments with Will and 2 with Andrew
I know right?! I can hear this gentleman talk all night!
found the racist
@@davidvaknin3801 eh
@@davidvaknin3801 how is that racist in the slightest he’s just saying he prefers one actor to another calm down
I'd listen to him talk about Shakespeare all night.
Man, what a great cast as Moriarty. That look is unforgettable. And to think he was Hall in Band of Brothers.
He played an awesome Moriarty.
Wonderful I appreciate 🌹
Stayed up to watch this live, and watched it like 5 times this morning. My god 😍🔥
He's so sweet. I'm glad he's getting the recognition he deserves.
Andrew Scott is amazing...also in The Stag (Bachelor Weekend)
This dude is great. I love all his work.
He's so charming!! I've love him since Moriarty. Could easily listen to him speak for 30 more minutes without getting bored :)
He is sitting in such a ..... wonderful way
If you watch Andrew’s Hamlet, you’ll see why he said there’s a good amount of comedy in it. The actors in it do a fantastic job of picking those bits out and highlighting them with good acting. ❤️
I love his passion for Shakespeare and theatre. He loves what he does, which should be a goal for all of us.
His smile is beautiful 🥰💞🥰
"nad you were so muderous and so terrifying i thought, i can't find that attractive!"
*cries in moriarty crush*
