Articulate, intelligent, quick-witted, and...with interesting things to say. And that's just the host and his guest. And Ross was quite captivating when younger. His wit is still razor-sharp, but he oozes charm here as well. of course this was almost 30 years ago. Older than most wine I've drunk. TFP.
I imagine the appearance of Letterman on the Des O'Connor show is something of a holy grail for you. Did Letterman appear on Jonathan Ross's show ever? PS, Yes, I took a sabbatical, but I'm back! And still loving these!
Don: do you have Late Night episode when they spoofed the The Day After with a panel discussion of the previous night’s episode of Alice, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar? I think the date was 11/21/1983. Thanks!
Great request and can't believe you had this! What a goldmine. Not many or any British talk show host interviews from this era in America.
I have every Late Night. :)
2 of my favorite talk show hosts
Thank you Don! Being from the UK its great to see British guests on Letterman
Since you posted the other video from this same show I've wanted to see this one too. Thanks!
That's some serious Spandau Ballet hair
Never knew this existed!

I'm near certain he didn't.
@5:18 I feel a missed opportunity for “it’s all Greek to me. “

Yep -- you got the date right, and yep, I do have it.
Would love to see it, can you post that segment here maybe? Thanks Don, you are the best.
Wossy!
