Pick a Pocket or Two - Omid Djalili as Fagin - Oliver! London August 2009

[TheBenWalker87]

Going to see this in the summer, a shame Omid wont be in it, but Brian Connolly is playibng Fagin and he should be great.

[davebournemouth]

everyone has thier own favourite Fagin,I saw many of them in London,they were all brilliant in different ways,if they were not good,they would not get the job.

my own favourite was Griff Rhys Jones.

[CP1234hello22]

omid is the best fagin much better than rowan

[Detectivefiction]

I'd never even heard of this guy until this morning (I'm an American), but I am in love with his Fagin! His phrasing, both in the dialogue and in the song, is outstanding.

[dozza92]

Djalili!!! AS FAGINN!!! FACEMELT.....

[TheUndertaker8]

Omid is the best!

[ClemmyOX]

I saw rowan atkinson he was bloody amazing! much more of a fagin than omid but i still think hes good :)

[Hazzarati96]

Rowan Atkinson seems better. He was a bit more funny and sounded more like a proper Fagin! =)

[Love0me0dearly]

I saw this with Rowan Atkinson and he was amazing but im not going to comment on Omid because i never saw him but Rowan was amazing in it in fact the whole of it was brilliant

[urworstnightmare123]

I didn't rate Omid much tbh. He kept slipping into the iranian thing in reviewing the situation. His singing isn't as good a Rowans either..

[dayiiv]

fagin is supposed to be Hungarian isn't he?

[FinalFreek]

@dayiiv no jewish. in the book he was just known as "the jew"

[dayiiv]

so omid slipping into a middle eastern accent is not such a big deal then really.

[popmusicno1fan]

omids well scary lol

[PeterFirthFan]

Ross is great.

[Jamiekennywicked]

Can u pst london birdge/the chase plz

[Saarkia]

[vef879]

[tomclaireislajoseph]

went to see oliver yesterday omid was genious!!! as were rest of cast but he really made me laugh out loud!!!

[popmusicno1fan]

what happened at 3:53?

[Lizzie2night]

I think someone punched him in the stomach =)

[101moviegod]

what does he say at 5:17????

[TurtlevilleWorld]

"Look at me ma, on top of the world!"

[oldskoolozzy]

I think Omid is actually better than Rowan tbh.

[xxmakeup101xx]

good but not as good as rowan atkinson!!!! lol

[rennnn22]

when was this show????

[popmusicno1fan]

now that i saw rowan atkinson twice in oliver twist in london i am a rowan fan now i think lol he was the best as fagin though, i dont like him much in anything else but i lovvvvvvvvvveddddddddd him

[Scruffy193]

Ooh, I'm an Oliver fan down here in Australia.

I was jealous when I heard Rowan Atkinson was playing Fagin, and after hearing Omad Djalili tonight, I'm even greener with envy!

[RPGENIX]

i saw this on the 24th, really good, i prefer jonathan pryce in the role, but omid was funnier

[dim432]

when i saw this omid said 5:00 "its very good i can write this down"

[dim432]

he was funny

[fatboymari]

[popmusicno1fan]

Dodger: FAGIN? FAGIIIIN??
