- Jeremy Irons- I wish I'd buttoned my lip.
The Oscar winning British actor, Jeremy Irons, tells Stephen Sackur that his words are often taken out of context and that his strong opinions often get him into trouble.
He has been in the media spotlight for his strong pro-smoking views, an apparent criticism of gay marriage and opinions expressed relating to sexual harassment.
i don't care what he says, his voice is sexy as hell
Me too
and he said absolutely nothing wrong.
Based as fuck. Jeremy Irons says what he thinks without sugar-coating it. Wish more celebrities wouldn't be so scared of offending people with their opinions
I can't understand why Jeremy Irons has not been knighted yet. It's overdue.
He is one of our finest, most original actors.
Oh, OK.
+1
Also one of the finest, most original humans.
I hate that sir, lord, Douche, It's names we give to dogs, Baron, Princess.
Sir Jeremy Irons. Love it! 😉
literally he could say ANYTHING and I'd love it with that voice
"i mean please have a sense of proportion" lost count of how many times I've listened to just that part
That was brilliantly voiced.
I thought Jeremy was going to punch him at one point.
+tigermunky he should've
+mjfreaklove Why?
he asks stupid questions and pisses off Jeremy.
mjfreaklove What stupid questions?
Dylan Murphy the whole interview is annoying both for Jeremy and the viewers I would say.
I don't see why they're having a cow about him honestly expressing his opinions. Leave the man alone! As far as smoking, I think he was right in saying "Have a sense of proportion!" And why are they so insistent on knowing what he FELT about gay marriage? And he didn't say anything AGAINST gay marriage, he said it might change the institution of marriage. Stop putting words in his mouth just to make a headline!
I'm obssseessseeedddd with Jeremy Irons.
I have the same voice, believe me.
Whyyyyyyyyyyy?
@@martinwhite7053show me
he's trying to genuinely think about things deeply and offer an intelligent view point but people are so fucking obsessed with being PC they discredit it as homophobia or whatever else
+lisbeth salander except not quite sure about the 'any women worth her salt' thing lool some of us are scared we'll be attacked if we stand up for ourselves?
Can a neutral opinion based on admitted ignorance really be called intelligent?
+lisbeth salander IKR? Why should I have to scream at someone for touching me because he "needs to ,to communicate"?
Quick story. I stop to help a man who asked me to look up the bus schedule ,as his phone was not working.4:00 PM on the busiest street in my town,I looked down at my phone and he grabbed my arm and groped me with his other hand. Guess he needed to communicate.
Love Mr. Irons as an actor,but I think the old goat should stick to what he's best at.
+HOT VIDEOS He isn't against it.
Yes. Yes it can.
You cannot.
I wanna marry his voice
Marry me. I speak the same .... ua-cam.com/video/iDos9yx5Y3Y/v-deo.html
Mrs. Sinead Cusack is married to it. Haha.
@@blindbookworm8019What a pity
Yes and his wife probably having orgasms with that voice !! His and Alan Rickman’s
Jeremy is a badass. That interviewer doesn't seem to know what he's talking about.
How so?
When Jeremy Irons says "I don't have a strong opinion either way" and people think that he is trying to say "I don't like Gay Marriage"... what I think he actually is trying to say is "I don't really care about marriage and it's not such a big deal" but can't just outright say that. It seems like he's trying to express that it's not such a huge deal and that if someone wants to ask him what he thinks about 'gay marriage' they'd first have to ask him what he thinks about 'marriage' in general.
In the other interview where he actually makes these comments, he discusses all weird aspects about it, as though he was thinking about it on the spot. I don't think he had some agenda just because he didn't outright state "I love Gay Marriage" in that video. He began to discuss the fact that marriage has a Christian definition and that by allowing Gay Marriage, it would change that definition which has been Christian in a very particular way. Yes people can say that "people are allowed to get married in vegas etc and get divorced etc" but it's clear that same sex marriage is a very different thing especially in terms of the fact that marriage itself, the label, is based in Christian traditions.
Jeremy then clarifies that his rambling and thoughts from the other video may have been misinformed because he might not know exactly how similar Civil Partnerships are to Marriage. And that if for example the question was raised whether same sex couples should have the same rights in a partnership as married heterosexual couples have, that Jeremy would most definitely say yes. And if Civil Partnerships actually do not have the same rights, then he would definitely fight for the same rights and be okay with that. However in terms of 'marriage' itself, with its Christian based label, he was simply discussing the fact that it is a label and what allowing same sex marriage may do to that label.
When he said "it worries me" it seemed as though he was directing it to the path of what could happen when allowing homosexual marriage (i.e. breaking a Christian based label in a very definitive way and what it could lead to). I don't think he was trying to STATE that by allowing same sex marriage that then suddenly incest and all this other stuff would follow. I don't think he was even pondering this for any malicious intent, but rather simply discussing it and expressing his thoughts as the interviewer questioned. Jeremy is an older man, he's experienced a lot, and so I imagine when he's asked a question about his thoughts on something, it may not be a simple surface answer. And if the lack of a surface answer, to you, makes you assume that he is outright against gay marriage or fundamentally the acknowledgement of equal love for all genders, then 1. You are making an over the top accusation, and 2. You are insulting his intelligence, and frankly being disrespectful.
Just because it is a big issue or topic in the world today does not mean that anyone who is asked this question should outright state how much they love it. People should not feel so threatened. Jeremy Irons obviously doesn't care who loves who, if anything I am sure he finds it funny even being asked such a random question, as though it would make any particular difference to his life in terms of who loves who. That would be a more plausible reason for why he simply didn't really comment on that as much but rather mentioned the political implications. Marriage itself does not 'prove' Love. Marriage in the end of the day is literally a label invented by Christian tradition which nowadays exists as a way of forming a partnership that is recognised by the law. If there is something else which exists that is equal to this (civil partnership) but without the religion-based label already, then clearly when talking about marriage etc, it's not so much about whether they should have the same rights (because they do) but rather what it means in terms of this label. Either way, don't jump to accusations. He clearly doesn't have a problem with it. If he did he'd say something much more simple.
P.S. I am not against same-sex marriage. I am for same-sex marriage. I'm not religious, and also my mother is a lesbian. However for me civil partnership and marriage don't really make a difference, as long as people who are in a partnership can have the same rights, I am fine with that. That's all I care about. In the end of the day label doesn't mean as much. If people want to say, the label of marriage has changed a lot nowadays and isn't really a 'Christian' thing anymore, so it shouldn't be viewed like that, then that's great - allow same sex marriage. If people argue, no it still is a Christian thing and it doesn't make sense to change a tradition when gay people already have the ability to make a partnership that is recognised by law in the exact same way, then that's fine too. I don't care as much about the label. I care about the rights. As long as both relationships can be recognised by the law.
Well put. It seems when it comes to these topics reporters and everyone else want simple, grade-school answers.
I wish I could express myself the way you did, because it felt like I was reading my own emotions. A lot of my friends have asked me what are my views on gay marriage and other similar issues, but always get the wrong idea and start saying how ignorant I am. Nonetheless I agree with everything you said and I am thankful for your comment.
Was this interview cut short to ensure maximum amount of miscommunication and further inflame the situation by not allowing Irons to elaborate on something that seems like quite a difficult subject?
I'm completely heterosexual...
And I would let Jeremy Irons "pat my behind" while he smokes a cigarette.
"It's deeply unpleaseant to people nearby who hate cigarette smoke" - Well there is a difference between deeply unpleasant things and life-threatening things. If we talk about life-threatening things, then cigarette smoke is just a drop in the ocean and Jeremy is right -> the hypocrite attitude on a global scale makes non-smokers to miss the point : EVERYTHING that pollutes our planet is almost forgotten when it comes to blaming the Tobacco Industry, this " bad guy " is taking all the credits for our environmental problems, because of the poor judgement of so many people.
Smoking is a very old habit, yet WE are the ones who have rising rates of cancer because of all the other things that are harming us at the present moment, so this problem is far more than just some damn cigarettes. This is what Jeremy meant when he said " Have a sense of proportion " , but he could have also said : " Get yourself a brain. "
And no, he is not trying to justify his habit. Smokers aren't trying to justify their behavior in any way, this is just a presupposition, the truth is that many smokers couldn't care less about what others think of them.
Irons is simply making a point, not because he is a smoker, but because he is able to see things in a logical and analytic way.
You either get it or you don't.
I don't agree with this fawning attitude of approving Jeremy Irons' nasty remarks. IF he doesn't want to visit Central Park any longer because you can't smoke, then don't!
It's his opinion whether you agree or not. He's a person who's entitled to his beliefs, celebrity or not. I do wish more celebrities were outspoken and not puppets.
Exactly. We need people who are in the media to speak out.
So we can't shame him for articulating a poorly thought out opinion? I would say he puts himself up for criticism when he states his opinions, especially if they're not well reasoned. He's entitled to his beliefs, but so are the people who criticize him.
Maybe he meant: he NEEDS to touch , for not all men DO touch another individual without his/her consent? Right, Sir?
Such an honest guy. great!
I mean puh-LEASE, have a sense of proportion!
puh-lease!!
no matter how much time passes he is still a heartthrob and a fascinating voice too bad he's going to act less the world needs a real actor with real talent 😍😍😍😍
we need more people like him, unafraid to speak what is on their head.
weird is interesting,,,,,,,,.........weird makes life interesting,......
I just adore you Jeremy Irons. You are so forthright; such a Class Act... extraordinarily, brilliantly and exasperatingly human. Such a genius of a man and a genus of an actor. I watch The White Queen, I did not know who the young man in it was and researched and found that Max Irons was your son. I just wrote which I never do several comments one on one of his interviews and one on another. He is such a sweet kind honest forthright classy beautiful young man. And you are quite right as I watch more than one of your interviews, he can and is holding his own and it would be just lovely to see the two of you do something together one day. But he is truly amazing. I even wrote quite a detailed notes to him wishing him well now and in his future God bless him and God bless you of course mentioning you his dad that I have watched you since I can't remember when. I am 65 years old and I will continue to watch you both until I exist no more. I love the part about the flowers in the garden, and how Max said it really helped him. This is something I had done with my mother from a very young age whether it was lying the hay down to grow the grass, weeding, cleaning, seeding, sodding, planting flower bulbs and growing the flowers around the house in the good old of USA on a corner lot nearly two acres. No one can understand what this is like...so therapeutically embracing... it IS something bizarrely amazing. It reaches way down into the soul, the mind in a kinetic way that is just so lovely and heartwarming and heartfelt. I will tell you what I told your son when I wrote a note and a comment to him oh, the same to you God bless and keep you healthy, happy and safe
I learned him from trailer of Batman v Superman. I can listen to whatever he speaks about. That voice can say Justin Bieber's lyrics and make it sound cool.
Am I the only one who sees Scar from the Lion King every time he speaks???
No, you're not the only one.
I can't lie. Me too.
It's not fouling the atmosphere...please, have a sense of proportion!
Right on Sir!
Jeezus - exhale people.
Jeremy Irons is too smart and too important for these dull questions.
I love Jeremy Irons, no other like him. He is superb!
Love Jeremy Irons!! Great actor and love his passion.
Admittedly he is kind of a jerk, and a pretty sloppy thinker. But such a handsome, talented, fearless jerk. Nobody else would have dared take on Lolita, for example, and I think it was one of the most nuanced, thought-provoking films I have ever seen. To quote Balanchine, Irons should follow his advice; "Don't think, dear, just do."
Apparently, smoking is not killing Jeremy Irons but man don't smoke in public because your choice to inhale nicotine violates my choice to not inhale nicotine.
It’s outside in a public park stop being a pussy
He's just smashing, love him.
I agree with him (Jeremy) on a lot of what he says.
1. Interviewers getting off topic
2. He´s selling a "product."
its true he really likes his physical contact, because he grabbed me and kissed me in front of his wife, so I knew it was natural for him. Although I don't normally like to be touched and kissed by strangers I would have been happy with just a handshake, but I didn't mind because it was him! its not like I was going to push Jeremy Irons off. but if it were anyone else I would have. but there are times when I just cant cuz its too awkward or intimidating cuz you don't want to cause a stir and you want to seem complacent, and I think thats what most women are talking about. Life is really hard for us. Guys please don't touch us. Unless your Jeremy Irons.
The first sentence of this paragraph is diabolical 😭😂
I love you Jeremy I wish i would give you a cigar someday myself!
Stephen Sackur,
You are good.
Never talk to a heavy smoker not to smoke during interviews,
They’ll get very angry very fast and became very defensive.
If you are looking for marshmallows in the cereal, there are none, just more cardboard.
Everybody right now: ooooo corpse has the best voice EVER
Me: No ❤️ Jeremy Irons ALWAYS wins when it comes to voices and second comes Alan Rickman PERIODT
He is wonderful
I love you Jeremy...PREACH!!!!! :*
I don't always agree with his opinions. But at least he's honest , has opinions and isn't afraid to speak his mind.
same boat as you. he's spot on with the smoking, and the sort of laizze faire on marriage. at least he recognizes that if you do touch someone inappropriately, then you better be prepared to face whetever consequences that person may bring your way, be it a slap in the face or a public shaming.
Stay strong, Mr. Irons.
he shouldnt apologize hes hilarious and right in some ways.
No he isn’t
How has his smoking not damaged his beautiful voice !!!
I'm curious as to the context of this interview.
It seems that he's being grilled to fuck just because he's expressed his opinion from time to time. What programme was this part of?
I think it's BBC's "Hard Talk" programe. This is the interviewer of Hard Talk, so I assume it is.
+Adam Youssef makes sense.
I don't understand your meaning. They're just having a civil discussion/conversation about opinions.
If you feel this is "grilled to fuck" you must be one of those people that get easily offended. I see absolutely no problem with this and saw it was a very healthy way of communication.

There's audio of the whole thing. Feisty Jeremy is feisty.
+Monica Hosky nice, I'll have to give that a listen!
He's good for a laugh when he gets going - even when I don't agree with what he's saying it's fun to hear him rant.
Thanks for the link!
I love Jeremy Irons, but cancer isn't rising. The early detection of cancers is rising, but that's a good thing.
You're joking right? According to the U.N. and their medical partners Cancer is up by 400% since 1986. If the growth continues it's likely that almost everyone you bump into will have Cancer at some point in their life. But Jeremy is right, it's not caused by smoking (the increase is what I mean), it really is caused by the garbage pumped into our food and the fluoride in the tap water (gives you brain damage). But nobody seems to talk about the flu shots that admittedly have Mercury, it's on the insert!! You can ask your doctor for the insert (NOT the fact sheet) and see for yourself. Anybody that still has half a brain knows that Mercury is just about the WORST thing you can put into your body. It causes 40+ Cancers, nerve damage, brain damage, bone degeneration, and in some cases... Paralysis, irreversible. Now that's in a good dosage, your flu shots have very small amounts, but those who get them more than once will no doubt have at least 1 Cancer, and probably brain damage in their Adult life (as in age 30 to whenever death occurs) Get your facts straight. Thank you.
mcsoHicks If you live long enough, you will get cancer. Cell division and mitochondrial DNA replication are prone to errors and attack by HPV and the like. You have to remember, most of what we consider carcinogenic is such only at impractically high concentrations. Most of what we've eaten for millenia has always contained chemicals which, under the right circumstances, can cause errors in DNA transcription. Read the WHO data on cancer. They blame Hepatitis B, HPV, tobacco, OCCUPATIONAL carcinogens, alcohol, sedentary lifestyle, and obesity. www.who.int/features/qa/15/en/
ignesandros Funny that you're using recent "studies" from them. Since 2003, everything they've said has been a lie. Not even joking when I say they said Mercury was good for you. They said Alcohol increases your decision making and may improve reaction time. They said Marijuana protects your brain (we now know it causes schizophrenia). They said having a hot tub causes global warming. Funny, because global warming doesn't even exist. The earth has been cooling for decades, and those ice caps that were melting have regrown to 2X their size on average, while polar bears are at the highest population numbers in their history. The point is they've been hijacked by criminal bankers who don't give a damn about us. Don't believe their garbage.
mcsoHicks Oh, I mistakenly assumed I was responding to someone rational, not off their meds. Good luck with the treatment!
ignesandros Yep, there we go. That's why this world is so fucked up. Truth is stranger than fiction, and most people won't believe it. But facts are facts. Contact your Senator, and ask for all O.S.S., C.I.A., and U.N. documents that are available. Then kindly come back and tell me how you didn't read them :)
“Motor cars”. Very Brideshead.. Very Jeremy.
I agree mostly. The thing with the "touching" is that it violates the non-aggression principle. You don't "put out a feeler" by grabbing a feel. Plus, "a woman worth her salts" would turn around and bitch slap you, and in this twisted "justice system" the woman would then be arrested and charged with assault.
I agree with what he states, "A woman worth her salt would know how to handle herself. " If Jeremy Irons groped me, believe me, I would welcome it.
what the fuck
aww, he's lovely.
To have OPINIONS nowadays and especially NOT be "Politically Correct" it's dangerous.
In this world of lambs.
This always reminds me THE FARM from G. Orwell.
Well said! What do you think now?
Get em jeremy.
I see where Jeremy is coming from the point of having a discussion. I think that people should be allowed to have their own opion without loosing their job. Or having a mob try and pursicute them and make them give a public apology that they don’t except. It’s sad.
I agree. Please tell that to the alphabet community.
@@Luvie1980 what is the alphabet community? I’m confused. Haha.
Where's the full video?
on his last question/response: hes right, in order to have personal civil liberty, we have to all be trusted not to do something, and that if we do go wrong hold each other accountable. What we don't need is special attention and or government oversight on particular types of acts. This type of condemnation only creates unfair judgement that does not fit the crime.
Hey, Jeremy's right.
Clearly it's the content of what you say. He may not be unintelligent but what he said is irrational/illogical.
Yo Jeremy will make the record straight so quick.
I agree with him. Thank God he’s not a damn snowflake, he’s REAL❤️❤️❤️
And as far as Mr. Irons is concerned... keep up with your strong opinions and give´em hell!
Totally agree with you Jeremy Best wishes from the one who gave you Illusion- my poems😃
the title of this video clearly identifies the fact that they had a bad interpretation of what Jeremy was saying in this interview.
That interviewer is vile.
I´ve always liked this man. Such intelligence, talent and class.
Go Scar!
Scar was gay
+Wolter Wyshen Scar had a female mate.
Scar is bi, actually.
First topic- Agree completely.
Second Topic- His opinion is rather neutral so I can't exactly say that I disagree.
Third topic- Absolute bullshit.
Third one was outrageaous
Discovered him recently and as much as I love his voice and demeanor on screen, just don’t touch women. Tf. I’m petrified by the thought of women coming out on smth he might’ve done to them someday. I really hope he isn’t that kind of guy.
He’s not from your generation
0:39
PLEeeeeease....
Where can i find the full interwiev plssss
I don't blame him because I won't be mislead with rules that DON'T cause a disturbance nor hurt anyone. That goes for schools too and you got to play it free to be proud.
Love this man...
I cant help but put an image of scar from the lion king in my head when i hear him talking
I respect your opinion, the world is made of them, and that there as to be respect, so that constructive discussion may rises, but i do not realize what's the reason, why someone who says what he thinks is immediately labeled from ''unintelligent individual''.
Everything this man says I have an urge to sync with clips of Scar
I love him but him saying he won’t kill someone with his smoking is silly
WHY paople that have another opinion about gay mariage are attacked ? Is that fair? Why are we not allowed to have OUR opinion?
you can have your opinion as long as it is in accordance with other people's opinion LOL
You're allowed to have whatever opinion you want. If it happens to be one that's abhorrent to most other people, however, nothing's going to insulate you from their reaction to hearing it. That's the way society has always worked.
I was angry about his initial comment on HuffPost Live. But, I had only read the comments he made, I did not watch the video. After watching the actual video, I think he was offering an argument and just having a discussion rather than damning gay marriage.
If anyone were to make a high budget intensely dramatic biopic of Jeremy Paxman, what better actor than Irons for the title role?
'when i'm walking down the street smoking, it doesn't hurt anybody'. It DOES. it's just that the smokers' sense of smell is atrophied and they don't feel it, but everyone around DO inhale it. and they shouldn't.
and bringing up that it's not the only thing that's polluting the air is the same is "well, this person gets beaten up every day, why is it bad that I hit him too?"
this guy is addicted to smoking and it seems like the very thought of giving up terrifies him
LOVE Jeremy.
he has a point.......banning smoking everywhere makes no sense.
Yes, if we have more people like this we also need more people who can correct a dimwit on the spot, especially when on public television.
Thanks a lot, I can buy cigarettes but I can't smoke them?
Jeremy irons is a legend.
What a great thinker! I wish he'd go in for politics, very few people can think as clearly as he.
Smokers gonna smoke. Love Jeremy Irons if he smokes or burns up..great actor.
I am sure his wife appreciates the fact he only married her because she got knocked up..
+Jon House She has stuck with him for nearly 40 years....Can't be that bad....
Jon House he never said that.
I think he tried to say that they got legally married just to protect his children, in case one of them die the other part will be entitled to inheritance, pension etc. so can continue supporting the children.
Smoking aside it's a personal choice but the man making a lot of sence regarding what we are eating
In fairness he never said he was against gay marriage but was doubtfull of the motives behind it.
wise advice
Hm, I thought he was more intelligent than this. I wonder if he would even have been an actor if he had a different voice. I love his voice, but is he really that good?
TheVildee
françoise Bremond Hey! you are a little bit rough with jeremy or may be jealous ??!!! Come on not only a good actor but very intelligent is he not? which is quite rare with actors ; they don't need to be intelligent to make a carreer ... !!! Oh! my God why didn't I meet him in time ? Am I not as beautifull and intelligent as Sinead Cusack ??!!! Life is unfair girls ! That' all folks!!!
I suggest you to watch "Dead Ringers" with Jeremy, it's a movie from th 80s where he plays identical twins. Try to watch that :) also, respect the actor not the man behind that. You may not share his view (me too at some points) but i can't deny he's one of the most talented actors we have nowdays. Cheers!
great as the villain in lion king
Te amo 🙏🔥🙃💜🍩☕💙😋💞😍🤩😘💚🍰😊😛😀😀🌻🥰❤️💋🔐🍾🍾🥂🎈🙈💰💰🍕
That would rarely happen to her.
Go Jeremy! God bless you! :-) (The interviewer here was a bit of a prig, anyway.)
GRANDE, GRANDE, GRANDE! GRANDE COME TE CI SEI SOLAMENTE TU !
BIG BIG BIG ! BIG AS YOU THERE IS ONLY YOU!
jeremy fucking Irons. What more can yyou say
how come he didn't talk about his breakfast cereal..
{family guy}
Jeremy Irions is a g! Love him.
not heard more than opinions and a frisky comment that may be preliminary for still a conversation further interesting ...nothing that special that might offend someone on national television,having said this, offense is subjective in relation to individual ,context and culture.
