Very rare to find a really engrossing interview on breakfast tv these days, but that was excellent...Coogan seems to be a rarity in that he's always very genuine and engaging in most interviews I've seen him do.
It's all down to the tablets Alan takes to dial down the mania - they only work for a few hours a month so he has to time them just when he's pretending to be Steve.
It was brilliant. I was cynical about watching it due to the controversy, but his performance was so incredible it changed my mind. He is able to play a character in Alan Partridge which has made me cry laughing and played one of the most despicable monsters to perfection. The Reckoning made my skin crawl.
Also demonstrated how Steve recognised the importance of coming back to answer Charlie's question when Naga interrupted about shaving his head. Charlie's question was more apposite.
No that's not what it was, he was explaining the different methods of acting an actor uses. Coogan isn't a method actor, where one would continue to act as the subject outside of scenes.
@@davetoms3correct but he naturally evolved it into a joke but then stoped due to the seriousness of the subject. Classic Alan Partridge stuff just there
Steve is a very talented, down to earth, thoughtful, decent guy, rare these days. He thoroughly deserves his acting success. The best interview I've watched on Breakfast for a long time. One of the best lines from AP. "Lynn, some of these people have come from Stoke!" My dear, late mother and I cried with laughter all the way through that episode. Superbly acted by all with brilliant script writing. A wonderful memory... Steve, please do another 'The Trip' series with Rob. "What time's the battle, bout 12 o'clock, soooo we'll leave about 9-ish?!, 8.30 for 9.00, but it is a continental breakfast, thank you brother Rob (?)". Just superb comedy. Steve needs to be knighted...
Thank you Mr Coogan for taking on this role of Saville, although I obviously knew what he did you actually made me feel the horror of this man because of your amazing take of him. Glad to see Alan back he has always had me in tears of joy.
No one needed to see it. We all know what he did. The BBC should never have been the ones to profit from it. It's also deeply unsettling why a man would ever want to play that part. It's sick and pretty twisted. Shame on you.
Rubbish, some of the best shows have been about serial killers, murderers, peados etc. The Saville show was great…Coogan’s performance was award winning.
@@mojorisin8368It was absolutely riveting. One of the most terrifying performances of a real life monster that has ever been put to film. Coogan will likely be overlooked for an award because of the controversy surrounding it, but he deserves recognition. It was superbly done.
All credit to Steve he's learnt from his earlier venture into films. His portrayals of Stan Laurel and Jimmy Saville were outstanding. I guess with both those he had a character framework to work off. Can't be easy moving from comedy caricatures to real life personalities. Shaping the normalities of those characters and in particular fictional characters. Still love his Paul and Pauline Calf and people seem to have forgotten what a brilliant mimic he was. Yeah I agree Steve. Comedy (laughter) and music are so important, particularly at difficult points in your life. All the best with your future endeavours.
Stellar interview, Coogan is extremely talented, one of my favourites, while I was watching this I was just thinking about some of the things I’ve seen with Partridge in the past and I cracked up laughing.
I was convinced by the Jimmy Saville act. I couldn't have watched it if it was the real character playing himself. Steve Coogan got the arrogance down to a fine art.
I didn't see Steve at all in that, he was totally immersed in the part and what's amazing is he could turn the act off as soon as the director yelled "Cut" and talk normally with the other cast. Proper professional.
Steve Coogan as Saville was chilling and there were times when I flicked the channel over rather than see what the sick outcomes were of particular scenes. So different to his role as Martin Sixsmith in Philomena with Judy Dench, in which he was equally convincing. A great actor who just happens to be very funny when it comes comedy.
When Coogan played Partridge back in the day it was brilliant, as Saville as much it was a factor, he done it well and it required great talent to do that
Creative is an adjective isn't it? When did it become a noun? I don't like the way that people in the arts describe each other as "creatives" somehow trying to monopolise creativity for themselves. It's really narrow-minded. Lots of people in all spheres of life are creative thinkers, from people working in manufacturing to teachers to scientific researchers. People in the arts need to look outside of their little bubble.
Coogan is a one off...doesn't get nowhere near the plaudits he should...so versitile and way to clever for the majority of us.To have a character still going strong after 30 yrs is impressive and love life Alan I say 👍
Because Steve IS so well known for Alan, amongst other things, that's exactly why he could play Savile without having to worry about people really associating him with that role. Alan is a true powerhouse creation, and I'm glad Steve never 'retired' him. I guess he could still kill Alan off, but it would be very sad indeed! Btw is Charlie really that much of a personality vacuum?? I don't normally watch Breakfast.
When he said he was doing the saville program just thought why the hell but just done it do well tough watch though just shows how universal he can be a fantastic talent never dull
We all love Alan, but his saxondale series was fabulous. Additionally, characters like Paul and Pauline calf were just fantastic. We won't talk about the car salesman 😄. I'd like to see saxondale revived, but not at the expense of Alan, and neither his audiobooks, which are fantastic.

I do like Steve C, very intelligent entertainer. However, I do wish the BBC studio staff would have affixed his poppy onto the correct side (Left, over the heart)

I love this Steve Coogan character that Alan Partridge does. It's incredibly well studied and subtle; he really inhabits the role.

Steve coogon playing savile gave me the chills his voice was exactly the same as savile 😮
Not quite but the mannerisms were there
The voice was bang on nearly@@jaggass
...if Savile was from Manchester, you mean. At times in The Reckoning Coogan sounded more like Paul Calf than Saville
@@jaggassusername checks out 👍🏻
Alan Partridge was a brilliant character, but I really liked Saxondale as well. It is a bit overlooked, but quite brilliant.
Absolutely agree..... I loved Saxondale, was very under rated
It was excellent.
I loved Saxondale!
Is
I’ll give it a look. Never watched saxondale but love Steve
He is still very wary of media you can tell. I think he's a genius and still underappreciated, his performance in the Reckoning is phenomenal.
Is that the Jimmy saville one? I don’t have the guts to watch that, it sounds horrific (largely thanks to Coogan doing such a good job)
It was brilliant. I was cynical about watching it due to the controversy, but his performance was so incredible it changed my mind.

A warm bath with a capful of Dettol, and that's non-negotiable.
A day doesn't go by when I don't use at least three Alanisms. Steve Coogan is a legend.
I watch the Christmas special EVERY year!..it's pure comedy gold, Absolute brilliance!
8:30 “I’d jump in and jump out of it, I wouldn’t need to wander around as him at lunch time - ” so close to making a joke but stops himself. Legend

Bloody brilliant performance from everyone in those episodes. I found Steve (as Savile) extremely unnerving.
He's an amazing talent.
I consider Alan to be a real person at this point.

Steve Coogan was excellent as Stan Laurel.
5:49 I don't think that's the right word, Naga. I think it's remindful. It reminded me of Jimmy Savile.
God that’s good. Textbook
An overwhelming sense of a monster predator
Steve's ears are growing at such a rate , he is now in competition with top Irish luggists Terry Wogan and Pat Jennings.
9:08 Alan's deep bath
I think Gareth Cheeseman’s “A wank, I think!” would be even better than “ahaaah” to embarrass Steve in public!
Steve is a very talented man.
Very funny, a brilliant impressionist and a fine actor he was very convincing and menacing as Jimmy Savile.
Steve looks older than the current age Alan Partridge now
Legend
Great hair, Steve. I'm so jealous 😭
I love the looks to the camera 😂
Knowing me Knowing Yule was the best ever Christmas show.
The BBC will be eternally grateful for The Reckoning.
Many former BBC Managers can settle back and enjoy their retirement pensions once more.
Lovely sense of humour
Excellent banter

Coogan improves like a fine wine. A clever person can act the part of an idiot. But an idiot can’t act the part of a clever person.
"The headslap"
There are no risks playing Jimmy Savelle in the Reckning------HES AN ACTOR !!!!
Gareth Cheeseman for me (after Alan, of course!).

A drama, to make money, get viewers and provoke public discussion.

Imagine if coogan had stayed in Jimmy savile character when the cameras weren't rolling. Jeez, that would have been awkward for the other actors.
His ears look enormous. I’m a fan (of him, not ears in general, or his ears in particular). That is all.
"We did it with the survivors." Yeah, 'victims' he meant. Saville wasn't a serial killer.
