An absolutely brilliant job of reminding us,(as if we needed reminding!) of the precious gift in Richard Armitage, on this, his 40th birthday. Thank you for another breath taking job!!! And yes, I forgot to breathe, so magnificent the man!!
What a luscious compilation of video clips from his career! He has created such amazing, unique and memorable characters. Thank you for sharing your vidding talents with us!
A fantastic video of RA. Wish I could see some of the older series that he has been in. Loved him in North & South! ~happy thoughts through my looking-glass~ HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Thank you for this wonderful video. You made it perfectly and I found myself extremely moved both by it and the glorious music. You could not have chosen any better accompaniments to the clips you used. A fitting tribute to a sublime actor and a genuinely beautiful human being, both inside and out.
Wonderful Angela! I love how you showed clips of all his work! You chose some of my all time favorite clips and there were some really excellent timing moments in that video to the beats of the music! Thank you for being the original RA Birthday video maker and I look forward to them every year from you!! I can't believe Richard is 40 already! He is like a fine wine only gets better looking with age! haha! Added to my favorites and going to watch again! hehe
What a lovely tribute to a lovely man. You have made a class A video for Richard's landmark birthday. Thank you for your efforts. I really enjoyed this. HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICHARD!
Thanks for making it, Spikesbint! For me you're already a household name in these videos department, so going for your birthday film as first was an obvious choice! 10 years' achevements in 6 minutes... So many films which I haven't watched! Which sometimes I didn't know they existed!... And such a difficult work of choosing the right shots for the clip. But I'm sure every minute was enjoyable and worth even the fight with the software breaking down. Happy Richard's Birthday to you, too!
Beautiful!!! I've always enjoyed watching your RA b-day videos and every year expected the enjoyment to be lengthened at least 1 more minute ;) delighted this time and not a bit surprised to find a mega tribute ;() LOL! It's not an easy editing task to be "more specific" when you've got "forty years to talk about" ;) Loads of hugs & thanks Angela for creating them... hope you'll never quit ;)
Gorgeous tribute video for his 40th with so many of my favorite clips! Just beautiful!! Can't wait for the Hobbit. He looks amazing in his makeup and costume!!!
It's a fantastic video Angela! So happy you also include pics from Captain America and The Hobbit. Watching it again, faved and liked. Thanks for making this wonderful piece of art. :-)
The original and still the best Been looking forward to this video because i knew you would give us all the most complete birthday tribute ever! LOVE your choice of music, the use of both still photos (woh) and video clips-& as always your timing is wonderful! Love your choice of clips.. 1 or 2 personal faves were "right on target". THANK you for sharing your talent with us-now come on out of retirement and get busy! (goes without saying faved and liked...lol) oh did i mention - woh...
Brilliant!! Great job... amazing how this gentle, good looking and talented man is getting better and better over his years... just like a good wine ;)
This was absolutely amazing. A very intense tribute, and thank you for the little dedicated to Lucas' memory... ^_^ HAPPY 40th BIRTHDAY, RICHARD, AND THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR ALL THAT YOU DO THAT MAKE US DREAM!!
случайно наткнулась на ваше видео, спасибо вам, оно просто замечательное! У нас сложно найти фильмы с Ричардом, кроме самых известных,. Благодаря вам , появилась возможность ознакомиться. /// stumbled upon your video, thank you, it is simply wonderful! We have hard to find movies with Richard, but the most known. Thanks to you , the opportunity to see.
@mfaithdrew He is lovely, and having been a fan for five years now, I don't see that stopping any time soon, he really is one of the nicest talented celebs about!
Just found this, one of my favorite pieces of music, you did a great job editing, made my day! Blessings to you! (you know me as Bunkie77, this is the new and improved me...divorce finally final, YAY!)
@Thymelady Thanks, and yeah I wanted to put plenty of Guy in, it was a bit of a headache reading all the air dates of every thing he had done on IMDB, that is why the RH clips are spaced between other projects, plus we get more Guy lol
@IoAsiek Thank you, some bits were hard to vid because he had only fleeting moments in them, and I had very little clips footage for s8 of Spooks, so I had to take what I could lol, of course things like RH and N&S was so many clips which to choose lol
@psychomammy Thank you very much, I am going to post a download link of it later, I was so tired last night when I was done, and thanks for your lovely words!
@weeknightingale I wish I could see some of those early episodes of doctors/casualty in better quality, I sort of remember his character from when I used to watch casualty
guuuuh you and heather are the queens of RA videos angela!!!!!!!!!!! That was soooo good! OMG I love this sort of modern version of the moonlight sonata! Sexy ;) Thrilled to have enjoyed this gem on his birthday! Amazing! :D Happy Birthday RA!!!!!!!!
Awesome!!! Wo this man is extremely hot but sweet with those eyes and smile.. I melt watching that video. He is my gentleman (Mr. Thornton)!!!!! I love him so much. He is the version of my perfect man!!
Richard looks so good doing period piece movies. Its like he stepped out of a classic story from years passed. If they ever do a Wuthering Heights movie I hope he's in it cause he reminds me of Heathcliff. To me he does. : )
@ExJetCityWoman I started the tradition four years ago, it certainly seems a popular thing to do now lol, been interesting watching everyone's videos and thank you :)
@spikesbint oh yeah! and now he is breaking into hollywood so I am excited :) I am sad they are hiding his beautiful face in the hobbit though... oh and in the theatres for captain america i was the only one screaming and crying when he died lol
@spikesbint It's only wasteful to play games on FB when you do it alone! LOL... too many addictive games there! Anyway, I'm glad you came out of your "semi retirement" to do this vid! Can't wait until it lives on my iPhone!
@chornak Thank you, and you and me both, I love Peter Jackson movies and especially the LotR trilogy, been waiting for the Hobbit forever and RA in it, is just the icing on the cake
@ReturnOfTheJedi1983 Lucky thing, it is always nice to have something in common with a favourite celeb the only thing I have in common with him is that we are both Leos
It's a lovely vid, Angela..thank you. But I wonder in what movie he was when he got hurt, seemed got shot, & when he's in hospital bed? So much thank you...:-)
@HeathDances It was doing better in the timing earlier on it the video, but I introduced a few clips with different codecs which we both know video editors do not always like, but I had to use what I had, i got so tired with it all I thought sod it lol

It's from the series Inspector Lynley Mysteries. He was in an episode of season 4.
@IoAsiek Thank you, some bits were hard to vid because he had only fleeting moments in them, and I had very little clips footage for s8 of Spooks, so I had to take what I could lol, of course things like RH and N&S was so many clips which to choose lol

@ThePhylly3 and thank you for taking the time to watch, it was certainly a challenge to put together lol
@watin77 It is Beethoven's Moonlight sonata re-arranged by E.S. Posthumus :) and thank you :)
@weeknightingale I wish I could see some of those early episodes of doctors/casualty in better quality, I sort of remember his character from when I used to watch casualty
Hi, have edited the info to list all of the things featured in the video, hope it helps.
@emylou212 The bit of music is by E.S. Posthumus - Moonlight Sonata and thank you. Can't wait till the Hobbit comes out :-)
AND AGAIN FANTASTIC !!!
Thank you. That sounds interesting. I will have a look.
@Michaellover80 It was a short lived series called the Golden Hour :)
He's getting old so well :D
Richard is amazingly handsome. I wonder what he would think of this video. I imagine he would be utterly embarrassed.
Thank you so much hon I really liked the video
@sauronsdaugther Thank you, can't wait until the movies are out and can vid them!
I hope you do an update to this one w all RA's new roles! Great job on this, btw. I've seen it a few times now.

Thank you, I meant to put in the credits that it was by E.S. Posthumus, love their music.

@spikesbint oh yeah! and now he is breaking into hollywood so I am excited :) I am sad they are hiding his beautiful face in the hobbit though... oh and in the theatres for captain america i was the only one screaming and crying when he died lol
@KatSw3 Thanks I would in the long run like to get back into video making rather than just once a year lol, but I get lazy and procrastinate :P
@cinkoxid Thanks and hope you have a happy birthday!
It's North&South - 2004 series ; it's after Elisabeth Gaskel's novel.
@sauronsdaugther It is by E.S. Posthumus. If you can't find it anywhere drop me a PM and I will set you up.
It is from the "Inspector Lynley" serial.
@spikesbint It's only wasteful to play games on FB when you do it alone! LOL... too many addictive games there! Anyway, I'm glad you came out of your "semi retirement" to do this vid! Can't wait until it lives on my iPhone!
Great video. If anybody can tell me which movie it is where he wears the Victorian looking clothes.
@peixinha73 Glad you liked it, I may not vid a whole lot any more, but I would feel wrong if I didn't do something on his birthday lol
@chornak Thank you, and you and me both, I love Peter Jackson movies and especially the LotR trilogy, been waiting for the Hobbit forever and RA in it, is just the icing on the cake

@foolishnorthernlass Thank you for your lovely words!
What is the song at the end of the video? (after The Moonlight Sonata)? From 5:31 min. It's beatigul... Thxs.
@ReturnOfTheJedi1983 Lucky thing, it is always nice to have something in common with a favourite celeb the only thing I have in common with him is that we are both Leos
It's a lovely vid, Angela..thank you. But I wonder in what movie he was when he got hurt, seemed got shot, & when he's in hospital bed? So much thank you...:-)
Fantastic video!! I was wondering if you could tell me what the show is at 2:30 when he's in a paramedic uniform?
OH goodness he is beautiful
@HeathDances It was doing better in the timing earlier on it the video, but I introduced a few clips with different codecs which we both know video editors do not always like, but I had to use what I had, i got so tired with it all I thought sod it lol
this is a beautiful birthday tribute to an absolutely gorgeous man! (what's the music? it sounds familiar, but i can't place it...)
I think his looks actually IMPROVE with age! It's crazy. XD
Silverrubygirl, it is North and South by BBC
Thank you :)
@PhoenixLupin Thank you! :D I try to forget the whole John Bateman thing ;)
Forgot to ask about the music. It's a version of one of my classic favorites, but don't recognize the arrangement. Who is it?
@spikesbint ...I'm trying too.... it's too painful... ç_ç
@beretta1342000 Lol, I think his face would get sore from all of us wanting to do that lol, but its nice to dream and thanks!
