The distinguished actress played a game with Ellen in which she had to impersonate as many animals as she could before time ran out... and even a little after! Check out how she did!
Estelle Collins she just speaks properly with Queens English, like Julie Andrews, Emily Blunt and normal people like me and many people in London and Hertfordshire
+Sarah Hill I've always wanted to know why accents can be so divided in one city-London...I mean there are people with Cockney accent and people with more proper accent like Carey Mulligan.
What a great sport Emma Thompson is! She could have easily said "quack," but she got out of her seat and dipped her head down to the ground. How great is that?!
Emma is a riot. Just love her humor. I'd give her on a scale of 1 to 10, and 10 being the highest a 4 on animal impersonations, but as an actress a 10!
I am dying from laughter. That was hilarious. I wonder why for some of them, she was just like "Oh, I can't be bothered with this one" and then made the human version of what the animal sounded like, and then for others she went through such a roundabout way of doing it.
Geek fact: Emma Thompson was last on Ellen exactly five years ago: November 12, 2008 along with Dido and Paris Hilton. She's a genuinely funny woman and has a great chemistry with Ellen!
Hilarious to the max!! This is what I like. An academy award winning actress trying her very best to act out animals instead of the obvious kill like oink oink or quack quack. Gotta love Emma!!
She is the absolute greatest. Only Emma Thompson could get away with being her normal hilarious/raunchy/foul-mouthed/elegant/gorgeous/stunning self. What a woman!
Wow Emma Thompson is SO professional! I just admire her a ton and I have loved her in everything I have seen. My favorite is Love Actually. Love how she gives 100% on animal sounds.
I think this is one of the bestests duck impression made by an Academy Award winner.
Congratulations, Emma Thompson.
XDDDDDDDDDDDD
Bestests? What language is that ? 🤣🤣🤣
'I hate Emma Thompson' said no one ever. She's the best.
I died at the pig noise. I died again at the donkey.
+Khinghooi Yap guess you could say you're... dead again. get it? because it's emma thompson? no? okay. i'll leave.
Yeah, me too :)) Oink, oink!!!! This was brilliant
So it means you resurrected twice??
"We are gathered here today...to remember..."
It was perfect!
I like how Emma challenges herself by not taking the easy way out (duck, etc.)
It's what made this video so funny. She's the best!
This is (still) the best thing I've ever seen.
Emma is really beautiful, I love the way she speaks and just says oright to anything ellen asks her
Estelle Collins she just speaks properly with Queens English, like Julie Andrews, Emily Blunt and normal people like me and many people in London and Hertfordshire
+Sarah Hill I have a british accent too
+Sarah Hill I've always wanted to know why accents can be so divided in one city-London...I mean there are people with Cockney accent and people with more proper accent like Carey Mulligan.
Very few people speak properly is the jist here!
That was awesome! She took it so seriously it was truly worthy of an award! I rarely laugh as much as I did at this video.
What a great sport Emma Thompson is! She could have easily said "quack," but she got out of her seat and dipped her head down to the ground. How great is that?!
+Jenn Hoff
Not to mention, she dipped her fingers in her water, to 'splash' it up.
I CAN'T DO IT! LMAO!!
*hands Emma Thompson another Academy Award*
Emma Thompson is my spirit animal 😂😂😂
So hilarious... the woodpecker was fantastic😂 love you Ellen and Emma. 🙌
Oh sweet mercy, I am actually CRYING with laughter. Everything hurts--my cheeks, my throat, my chest, oh lord. I love her so much.
This is the funniest shit I've seen in so long OMG I was dying
*tries animal noises*...oh, OINK, OINK!
When she was acting and doing those animal noises, she reminded me of Sybill Trelawney. :D
Her owl impression had me dying though because there are owls in HP
She's my spirit animal.
"Oh--OINK OINK. Jesus!"
She's amazing, just amazing. Watched it over and over again
WTF 2:16
"Well that kangldudlduld"
"A Rooster!"
Kaspy Cockadoodldo is the typpical sound for a rooster in Englsh speaking countries :)
I love how she’s really trying her best and got the animal noise accurately what a queen

She is such a legend.
Oh Lord! When The crow pic came up I was yelling so loud " CAW, MISS EMMA, CAW!!!" Lol and then the owl?!? Man, I Love Emma Thompson!
Geek fact: Emma Thompson was last on Ellen exactly five years ago: November 12, 2008 along with Dido and Paris Hilton.
She's a genuinely funny woman and has a great chemistry with Ellen!
She was also in an episode of Ellen's sitcom in 1997:
Ellen - Season 5 Episode 8 - Emma
Anytime and everytime I'm depressed or sad.... this video fixes EVERYTHING!!!
LOL, I accidentally clicked on this and I was not expecting it to be so funny!! I laughed the whole time!
she is so lovely and into the game! she wants to make genuine noises and not just common 'oink-oink' crap. love her!
Definitely one of the best actresses ever!
Could not stop laughing!
Funniest interview I seen in ages. Love Emma and Ellen, Great Combo. They are moth mad.
My goodness I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. My stomach hurt, my throat hurt, I just about fell down it was so funny :D
She made the game harder than it needed to be XD
Acting talents put to good use.
Note to self, don't eat cereal when watching this... it will go everywhere loool :D
That made me laugh so hard. The most committed animal impressions I have ever seen in my life!!! I love Emma Thompson! :)
Hilarious to the max!! This is what I like. An academy award winning actress trying her very best to act out animals instead of the obvious kill like oink oink or quack quack. Gotta love Emma!!
She is the absolute greatest. Only Emma Thompson could get away with being her normal hilarious/raunchy/foul-mouthed/elegant/gorgeous/stunning self. What a woman!
This is surely and of the best games Ellen's ever played! I saw it three times and can't stop laughing!
I was waiting for a fox the whole time but it was hilarious, even without it
I swear when she was impersonating the owl at first, I thought she was trying to do a Professor Trelawney impression
😂😂😂😂😂 oink! Oink! She's brilliant!!
choosing to continue playing the game was the best decision ellen has ever made!
She's awesome. Had quite the laugh. Brilliantly humble woman :)
a crow goes kaw- kaw!
She is not very good at this at all. I'd guess she never spends much time around farming places and people.
I love her with all my heart 😂😂😂😂
I was waiting for the fox.
Oh dear, this always leaves me in tears 🤣 one of the absolute best moments on the show ❤️
omg! I was sitting in the library and had to try not laugh, that was soo difficult ^^
It’s my 2nd time watching and it got even funnier. goddamn! Emma is a treasure 😭😂❤️

I feel sorry for her throat!
absolutely LOVE this woman!
‘oh, OINK OINK’ my stomach actually hurts from laughing
Omg imagine if one of the card said the fox
Love the donkey impression

Emma thompson, so funny, so clever.
Thanks Ellen & Emma, I really laughed through the whole video!
omg i almost peed when watching. so much fun
watched this 4 years ago, watching again now. still the best person on ellen.
The noise she was making for pig sounded like the noises the zombie's made in World War Z lmao
Most definitely a good sport, I'd say. The things you do to get (even more) recognition 😂😂
This never gets old!(':
Have to hand it to Emma Thompson. She gave it her all. Damn funny :-)
Damn she's good. No wonder she got the part in MIB 3
she is amazing, i love that woman!
This is the most hilarious thing i have ever seen on youtube
They are all so accurate and the fact she knows them all tells a lot about a person. LOVE EMMA.
those two are a match made in heaven! were back even when Emma was Ellen's gay boss on the sitcom. Time really does fly!
Oh my! Lol I love the suffocating pig, the shot out of the sky crow , and the proper speaking owl :-) hilarious! ♥
This is the single greatest video on the internet. I couldn't stop laughing!
How she manages to be still incredibly sexy while making all these realistic animal noises is what amazes me
I loved it! She did great and she was so funny..
yesterday i was watching ellen's old sitcom and she was on it, perfect
She is amazing!!
