  • i love any and all doctors, i love johns master and because of that now im going to go watch life on mars if i had known he was in it i would have been watching it the whole time anyway truthfully, well on to that then lol

  • It's the master! Quick somebody call the doctor

  • Hello Master, we meet again.

  • Sam Tyler? Like Rose Tyler's dad?! WTF?! I have got to watch that show!!!

  • @iloveanime12341 No this series has got nothing to do with doctor who, he's not Rose Tylers dad lol. But it is an AMAZING show, better than doctor who I think haha =)

  • OMG I've seen Life on Mars before and I didn't even realize it until now! OMG! I can't believe I passed over John Simm with barely a glance! I loved the show when it first started! I must find it! D:<

  • I love Life on Mars :) David Bowie greatness

  • Weird. Master didnt kill anyone.

  • I just love his smile. He's an excellent actor!

  • Love his smile!! -3

  • 0:34 omg I have never seen anyone look so bored...and then at 0:37 when he realises the camera is on him... **big smile** LOL

  • Who the fuck is John Simm?

  • @bluebettle he's an awesome british actor..you should watch him in state of play :) the UK one of course

  • @bluebettle How the hell can you not know?!?

  • @slightlyinsaneFTW I live in the US?

  • @bluebettle then why watch this interview clearly titled 'john simm' if you've never heard of him? Retard.

  • @bluebettle lol don't worry. I know what your talking about. Let's bitch about the industry.

  • This is why Iove my other half.... Northern men are the funniest, sexiest blokes on the planet!

  • I loved life on mars

    the american version was crap

  • @Umikosuzuhara why is it so bad? just asking, not that i wanna watch it cuz i absolutely loved the original one... and don't want to ruin that memory XD.....did they change something in the script in the US one?

  • @freiheitsalv well like they take the Mars part like literally and the character is on a mission to mars

  • just seen John Sims acting in block of flats i live in, making tv series called 'Exile' :)

  • Oh my god, isn't that the guy who left BBC Breakfast? I remember that so vaguely

  • John Simm played Sam Tyler... Son of Rose Tyler... Rose Tyler was Dr. Who's companion... and Dr. Who's archnemesis is The Master who is played by John Simms.... trippy

  • Yumm...

    He's GORGEOUS!!!!

  • He is such a sweet man. I loved him in "Life on Mars". Not "hollywood "gorgeous (thank god) but so lovable.

  • John Simm is just lovely.

    I adore him so much.

  • John Simm is my favorite actor, at the moment. I've really enjoyed everything I've seen him in, he's a musicians, and he seems like a really nice guy. Plus he's absolutely adorable.

  • I will never understand why John would not continue the series

  • John has said many times that he isn't comfortable with the whole 'celebrity' thing. It's obvious in this interview. Poor thing. He looks so nervous.

  • It would of topped it off if he made a cameo in Ashes to Ashes, shame!!...

  • there are just a few too many clips. One would have been sufficient.

  • Loooove the Simm Grin!!

  • I would've NEVER recognized him as Sam Tyler as I saw him as The Master first. Awesome actor. I really felt for Sam Tyler and went, "Wow, he's nuts!" when he was The Master. He looks shy here, though!

    And he's really nice-looking in his own way. It's nice to see that someone doesn't look airbrushed, unlike celebrities in America.

  • @Felicity1247 I absolutely agree! In Life on Mars, he was kind of sympathic and kind, but as the Master, he was so evil that I had to look at him a long time and then I realize whoah, he's "Sam Tyler!" :'D

  • my friend loves him

  • Oh, I'm surprised at how soft spoken he is is this interview.

    Used to seeing him moving around frenetically and being jester-like as The Master *__* Good acting.

  • I love john simms he such a good actor

  • what should i watch to love him too ? his best?

  • @xcutemoo9 What does that have to do with anything?

  • @xcutemoo9

    Maybe if you're looking at them through a funhouse mirror!

  • I think the female presenter has a bit of a thing for John lol :) Not that I can blame her, he's gorgeous =)

  • @HollyoaksGirlx69x Not even so much gorgeous as just plain sexy. :D

  • But john simm was simply brilliant.

  • I so don't like the way the series ended....

    well I kinda don't really know wheter I should like it or not...

  • lol~ 'hallucinatric'

    It's neat seeing him not being insane. I've only seen him as the Master, so it's kinda nifty watching him as someone else/himself. :3

  • My fella is the spitting image of him, everyone says so lol .. John Simm is a great actor!

  • I haven't seen life on mars so I only just saw the billboard scene but loved the ref.

  • this guy is hilarious

  • <3 John Simm :-)

  • Thought about that when he was on Doctor Who: Like why wasn't he considered for the Doctor before?!

    (<3David Tennant<3)

  • Why does everyone disgree with antidisastablish333, cos yeah John could be interesting at playing the Doctor

  • they should so get John to play the 12th Doctor, seriously! I know that might sound silly because he's played the Master but come on, nothing is impossible when it comes to this show!

  • Lol - he isn't interested in being the Doctor. He said so

  • @xxdrosexx OH :'( WHYYYY !!!!!!

  • Sigh.... with the 11th Doctor being who it is and all that, the Master is now cooler than him... can't picture Doctor Emo beating this guy.

  • he just look emo, we have no idea what kind of doctor hes gonna be like

  • @nyken933 Umm....how is Matt Smith's Doctor an Emo?

  • @sandmanzcommin08 his hair

  • @ConnorG56 ........really? So, having the 10th Doctor go from the cool and geeky hipster to literally act like a whiny, brooding, Rose-loving crybaby that "didnt want to go", thats fine. But you call Matt Smith's Doctor an Emo because of his hair?

  • @sandmanzcommin08 actually no it was nyken933 that said that, but in my opinion Matt Smiths doctor is trying too hard to live up to David Tennant, who is a good actor.

  • @ConnorG56 There both good actors, but he's not trying to be David Tennant. Thats like saying Tennant was being to much like Eccelson when he starts acting like a fucking emo. IF anything, Matt Smith is kinda like the 2nd Doctor Patrick Troughton which he has stated that his portrayal was based on Tomb of The Cybermen. Tennant was the cool nerdy type of funny, but Smith's brand of comedy is more around the lines of an eccentric man-child.

  • Aw and hes so quiet and shy.. youd never know after seeing him as The Master! good actor..

  • @Simpuramafampark yeahh i no :)

  • Squee I know he has a wife and two kids but i still find him very cute

  • Funniest image ever: Sam and Gene, on tiny green space hoppers with smiley faces, chasing a criminal around Manchester.

    :L

  • YES

  • Best BBC show EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yes its the first ep of season one.

  • OMGoodness, I love Life on Mars. Huzzah for John Simm!! :)

  • here's johnny!

  • life on mars !! ingenious

  • John is really cute. Please call me!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The kind of men I like!!!!!!!!Blonde, clear, white....gnammmm

  • The hosts come off kind of close minded and condescending, but his answers are nice to see. Thanks for uploading this.

  • One of his sons is called Ryan (I think) -don't know what the other one is called.

  • @january301973 Daughter Molly.

  • I love John Simm-absolutely sexy.

  • Thank you. It's good to have fans like you.

  • No, Thank you..It's good to have fans like you:)P

  • "... in 'Munchester'..." I'm definetely in love with the way he talks :-) John Simm's a sexie-sweetie-cutie-beautie-ne­atie-heartie-smartie-tartie-sk­innie... (fill in whatever you like). Great actor, anyway.

  • He's a great actor!

  • I thought he was a figure when i saw him in other videos lol

  • LUV DA SHIT

  • Ladies--John Simm is married and has two kids.

  • Yeah, I know...

  • thanks so much...

  • Aw I love his accent too. It started in Human Traffic for me. He is such a fantastic actor and is pretty gorgeous too!!!

  • love it...... gene hunt is a piss taker lol

  • Life On Mars British version is absolutely brilliant viewing..definately worth watching...

  • Very proud to say that this man is my cousin through marriage!! Keep going John!! You rock!!

  • ah Sam Tyler/John Simm is just lovely (and oh so adorable as someone said). You just want to squeeze him to death.

  • this guy was a champ on the doctor who as the master

  • @miocevich yes....

  • @miocevich agreed. he's an amazing actor. :)

  • The greatest programme in years.

  • We had/still have space hoppers, though we just call them bouncers haha! I never got one:( though I always used my friends :D mwhahaha

  • Look how far he's leaned away from her near the end. I don't blame him; she's creepy.

    Leans so close, smiles all bright and fake. Does anyone else notice that she's creepy?

  • i luv him!

  • wow its jip

  • Completely agree, you just wanna give him a hug! :D <3

  • He's so adorable!

  • Cute! ;3 I love John Simm <3

  • I grew up around the corner from John Simm and his twin sisters Nicola and Carol on Temple street in nelson. We all attended the same school, Edge End High also in Nelson. It's great to see one of our own doing so well. Well done John. Julia

  • Life on Mars was on Thursday night here!

  • I've had such a huge crush on him since 'you're not fat, you're keeping our baby warm' advert - check out how young he is in that one - on youtube think it's bt cellnet - ohh sooo old !!

  • I don't recall seeing him in anything screened here in Australia, before his role in Dr Who as The Master. Mind you...I think I'll be keeping my eye on this fellow a bit more, from now on. He's a good sort!

  • life on mars was only aired in the UK

  • It's on ABC in Australia at the moment....am usually getting the rugrats off to sleep about the time it's on though (Bummer!).

  • Life on Mars aired on the ABC not too long before the episodes of Doctor Who he was in.

  • I'm in Aus, and I've seen him in a few things. That mini-series they mention, State Of Play, was shown here a couple of years back. That was excellent. Also Sex Traffic, which was good but the subject is quite unsettling. And that one episode of Spaced (replayed on abc2 recently). And check out the films Wonderland (small indie film, not to be confused with a more recent one of the same name. might be hard to find, but it's good) and 24 Hour Party People, which should be easy to find/hire.

  • I don't usually watch much telly anymore. My kids tend to hog it...mainly for the purpose of watching videos/dvd's. We do have a small tv downstairs, but it's pretty crappy. We do try to watch Spicks and Specks on Wednesday nights... but even that goes by the way-side a lot of the time. But thankyou for the info and suggestions, it's very kind of you :)

  • I love love love John Simms. He was wonderful in Life on Mars and was so brilliant at conveying emotion. His facial expressions spoke of the intensity of his feelings. I just dont know how the police woman resisted staying the night with him!!!

  • i just found him off of dw he is a prety good actor.

  • john simm is a good actor in life on mars and doctor who he plays sam tyler in life on mars

  • he is a great actor and so sexy. I love Life on Mars, great show.

  • Don't you mean loved? It ended when John quit.

  • He's so cute

  • "You were driving a military vehicle" hahaha

  • He's a great actor! I love Life on Mars, wonderful show!!! (Glad there making the Gene Hunt spin off too!) He made such a great Master to it DW! I loved his role in that!

  • i totally agree!! dis is a great show nd he's a magnificent actor!

  • saw this the other night and watched the whole show. very good show, i would actually pay for the series rather then download it..

  • how would you like me 2 prove it??!?!

  • john simms my cousin and hes not nasty at all :O) xoxox

  • Prove he's your cuz

  • Really? That's cool :D My step-dad met him once, just randomly like, at a game, in Leeds in think???

    Lol, I'm not related to anyone famous, I just got that no some who know's someone thing. (A person I know, the women she work's for, her brother works with Johnny Depp & one of my step-dad's friends is friends with Ali G. I've never met them though)

  • yeah my mates seconds cousin's freinds dog trainer is mates with the queen

  • aw he's got a lovely smile :)

  • He appreciates genuine fans and gives them autographs ;) Sadly I haven't met him but lots of people on the messageboard I run have and all of them said how lovely he is and he spent a lot of time signing autographs for them. It's people that want to make money from his name (selling autographed stuff on e-bay) that he doesn't have time for (quite right too).

  • You're maybe right. I have never met him myself, so he could just be a rather shy guy that doesn't like being notest. Sorry if I offended you.

  • Hi again juliatetennant. You arn't related to David Tennant are you cause he is one cool guy!

  • Oh yeah and he's posted a few times on the LOM fan forum and even took part in a Q&A session on there. My "Master" T-shirt that he signed is now pride of place in my hall.

  • I have met him and he's an absolute top bloke. Quiet as a mouse mind. He is by his own admission incredibly shy. He has plenty of time for real fans but hates with a passion "ebay hawkers" i.e. people who think he is a cash machine. Apparently someone turned up one night with about 20 LOM posters to sign and he rightly told them where to go.

  • YUM YUM

    is all i can say

    bless he's so shy!

  • BBC America needs to hurry up and get series 2 over here across the pond. The first series was great! DCI Hunt is hilarious.

  • Good interview. I've never watched 'Life on Mars' but I will look for the DVDs after watching this clip.

  • Anyone know what the song is?

  • David Bowie's Life on Mars

  • he's lovely in real life too. i met him a few days ago,

  • Hes a top kid good taste in music,did you see The Lakes,he was good,hope he starts to get the respect I met him at a primal scream gig,hes a shy lad yet good sence of humor he asked me whwre i got me jacket from,i said me dad got it in 1973,he started laughing

  • he's the biggest cutie in the world. i luff him.

  • Glad it's not just me... ;-)

  • He's so lovely...

  • sexy smile, sexy walk,sexy voice!

  • That smile at the beginning is so mr saxon

  • Been there, cheered that....Human Traffic, Justin Kerrigan....long before all this....check it out, best film of the 90's

  • Hell yeah he's hot !

  • hes so cool i love his acting he is gud in this i watched it and im watching him on bbc 4 now lol he's pritty gud lukin 2

  • hell i agree

  • He is an amazing actor. His character in Life on Mars was the best casting in British TV for ages. And he's from Leeds same as me. And he's gorgeous

  • hes gawjus and a brilliant actor and he does seem quite shy

  • he is the master....

  • @vinothelizard

    He is John Simm? Duh? Did you even see the video?

  • He was born the same year as me!! 1970! I never had a Chopper or a Space Hopper either but I do remember 8 tracks in cars (like in that Cortina), in fact I have a 1970's mini which I would love to find an 8 track player for.

  • I heard him being interviewed on Radio 2 the other day, he sounds like a really down to earth guy and quite shy. I think that's why he does that gulping thing. He isn't really comfortable with the whole showbiz thing.

    Also, can anyone look at those dark eyes and that smile now without thinking "evil.. master!".

  • john simm is lovely great actor great smile i didnt see life on mars but i wish i did now specially now ive seen him in doctor who.

  • I love Life on Mars, its great. And John Simm was brillient in Doctor Who. My step-dad met him about 10 years ago in Leeds (where Simm is from), back before he was famous.

  • i love him hes so hot!

  • I remember it being brown and yellow :)
