BBC Breakfast Interview With Ruth Wilson

[kabardinka1]

Toby Stephens is the HOTTEST Mr. Rochester of them all. By far the best version of Jane Eyre.

[Ballinforlife2142]

Wish she stayed as "Jane Eyre"! (;

[CrazyGood88]

My God she is gorgeous. Her very sculpture of her face is magical.

[ramenshino]

first of all dude interview......lol

secondly: Ruth Wilson is a brilliant actress. After first seeing her in Luther I was fascinated by her character and her uniquely beautiful smile. Her performance in Jane Eyre completely blew me away and I look forward to seeing more of her television work. God I wish I lived in London, I would die to see her and jude law ina a freaking play!

[thepocarisweat]

goddess.

[MissChrystalline]

She is beautiful!

[AnkokuEvangeline]

The best Jane Eyre I've seen so far, and I saw at least 4 versions.

[derekbd]

good clip. bad aspect ratio.

[grazzygirl5]

she isnt a picture of perfection...but i find her quite beautiful ...thhere is just something about her...the more you watch her and get to know her the prettier she becomes each time...well at least to me...plus she is a wonderful actress and i absolutely loved her performance as jane eyre

[221Verona]

Maggie Smith is Tony's mum? I didn't know that!! Guess it runs in the family ;)

[ecartsiger]

She looks much better in Jane Eyre than in real life... its just my opinion

[crinye24]

Whoever cannot see the beauty that is Ruth Wilson probably needs to have their eyes checked out if not their brain!!! She is undeniably HOT and has a sex appeal that not even most Hollywood actresses can pull off. Enough said!

[GisellaUnforgotten73]

I have seen many movie versions of "Jane Eyre".This one was the one I preferred: Ruth Wilson was perfect! And she might not be beautiful in a top model-kind-of-way, but she's surely charming and very sensual.I am only sorry that we Italians have not many chances to follow her acting career.I personally like her very much!!

[PrincessAnya91]

Personally, I think Ruth Wilson is very beautiful. She's a very, very talented actress. All of you who are criticizing her looks need to back off! Every woman is beautiful in her own way. Just because Ruth Wilson does not look like Megan Fox or Halle Berry doesn't mean she isn't pretty. And kindly remember that the character of Jane Eyre is supposed to be plain, which is why she wore no makeup, her hair wasn't done up fancily, and her clothes were plain.

[deepwinter77]

@PrincessAnya91

i think shes much nicer then both megan fox and berry

[Morna777]

I think she's gorgeous and an amazing actor. She can convey a world of emotion with just her eyes.

[daTruChosen]

What the fuck are people talking about? A BANGING, curvy body, flaming red hair, porcelain skin, green eyes and an uncanny sexual allure. This woman is hot, hot, HOT! My lady and I argue when we watch Luther 'cause she always talks about how ugly she is. I say flat out that Ruth's beautiful; not in a stereotypical Claudia Schiffer or Halle Berrry sense but, just a smoldering energy this woman exudes.  That damn mouth of hers, man; and that fat ass have me thinking very naughty thoughts, man!

[59wiseman]

I had to condense my previous post, But I was reffering to my wife, as we BOTH watched a great talent in one story---to a BEAUTIFUL woman with talent in the second story "Luther". I am sure she stole the show. I now have yet another production to watch--- "Small Country" and already know she will steal the whole show

[59wiseman]

I have been searching for quality tv or series and have come across UK productions. . I got a hold of Jane Eyre and we both watched it in awe. She looked plain, as was the way her charactor was. But we noticed her acting ability. NEXT I watched the first episode of "Luther" not realizing that Ruth was in this series. . . She is incredible. .  I have stumbled onto UK productions ( far superior than the U.S) AND a beautiful and talented young actress in Ruth Wilson. "LUTHER" won me

[doctorw2]

ruth wilson really gives me a great throber!

[Maisha2006]

Ironic that after working with Toby as Mr. Rochester, she goes to work with his mom. Lucky girl to have such legendary actors to work it.

[megabestfriends4life]

honestly she isan't that bad looking at all.

[hannah4colbert]

I love love love love this movie. Almost as good as the book. I loved Toby Stephen's Rochester. eeek. "We're going to town!" lols.

[Ellie8969]

Best Jane Eyre ever! Perfect :)

[JulieAP8]

@gaeilgedreamer yes Ruth Wilson is beautiful ! I have pictures of her on my wall!

[Snezhinka9]

I think she's very good looking. It's just that in Jane Eyre that hairstyle would make anyone look ugly.

[helennorwood]

i loved her in luther...an amazing actress

[LittleMissAmbiguous]

She was amazing as Alice Morgan - so beautiful and funny but pretty unhinged.

[th2]

Morgan Wilson

LUUTHWERRRRRRRRRRRRR

[Muzikman127]

She is gorgeous in Luther.

[FamilyGuyRS]

her looks and her personality in luther

oh my godd.

She's gorgeous and the personality of alice is incredible

[mastergsan]

is is crazy good in Luther on BBC

[ThePagodaTroop]

well she does look a bit like " Moe Szyslak" (owner of Mo's bar in The Simpsons) but hey she crackin the the BBC drama Luther !!

[bethyk8]

ever since i saw Ruth's magnificent performance as Jane Eyre, I have fallen in love with her. Whenever i hear of anything with her in, i watch it and love it - she is so beautiful and an amazing actress!

[sduck1984]

Yes I did go to school with her, Notre Dame in Cobham, and I hardly think bullying someone throughout the whole of senior school can be referred to as holding them to ransom. If you had been bullied, you'd understand why most people may not want to share in her success. She may be able to act, but she was not exactly a 'child' at 17 making YOUNGER students lives hell. I just hope she remembers that.

[mirnareginaortiz]

Maravilhosa!

[Sallis73]

She was perfect as Jane Eyre, I can never again imagine anybody else in that role. She is neither very beautful, neither ugly, she is perfect.

[sduck1984]

Haha, I hope all you people realise that she is FAR from a nice person! I went to school with her for 7 sevens, 4 of which she bullied me along with others. She is NOT a nice person - I can tell you that!!

[doyoureallythinkso]

@sduck1984 You went to school with her? Even if this is true, are people to be held ransom for what they did as children?

[sugarcolt]

@sduck1984 I'm sorry to read this; sorry that you felt you had to let us know. I'd rather stick to the real details in this forum: about her lovely performance in this special role.

[MinnaWinchester]

She is an incredible actress and so pretty!

[daluraejin]

Loved her in Small Island too. She really is a good actress

[01Caroline]

5 Stars. Ruth Wilson was wonderful in 'Jane Eyre' on BBC. She's lovely.

[skanxtaz]

she was absolutely incredible as queenie in small island recently on bbc

[skinner17]

@skanxtaz Ruth Wilson is one of the best young talents out there, and all the 4 principal actors; Ruth, Naomie Harris, Benedict Cumberbatch & David Oyelowo put forth fantastic performances in Small Island...really makes me laugh and cry with them. fantastic production!

[brontelover09]

She isn't s tereotypical beauty, but she has her own look. She's a lovely person!

She was great in Jane Eyre, along with Toby Stevens ... :)

[AnnetteWarren]

She was fantastic as Jane! :-) And they showed the most beautiful scene from the series *sigh*

[MyWordsofLove6]

Oh, sigh... She was wonderful in Jane Eyre, but her teeth! They're distracting!

[MacGrurry]

i just saw The Prisoner on AMC, are this chicks tit's as big as they looked there? or is this the wrong actress?

[checkerboard12345]

why, oh why does she look like stephenie meyer?!!!!???

uggghhh, i like her, but i hate stephenie meyer.....

too bad

[snowygirl91]

she DOES look like Stephenie.. hahaha, I thought I was going nuts! I enjoyed watching the series very much. Hate is a rather strong word, there..

[anagg17]

i knoww :P hahaga i just got exited becouse that day i finished that book and i THOUGHT it was the best :P hahaha i stop being that way :P sorry

[masencullen]

She reminds me so much of Emma Watson!

Don't ask me why =P

[Millionation]

why?

[jalani13]

i know..thats exactly what i was thinking!!

[checkerboard12345]

she looks kinda like stephenie meyer......

but ofcourse ruth wilson is tons better :)

[BeeWilla4]

she's a great actress i reckon she's pretty in a very natural way. Ruth and Samantha Morton are my favourite Janes :D x

[deedeedmr]

ME TOO!!!!!

[weezieweezieweezie]

When she was talking about how difficult it was to show what Jane was thinking because she doesn't really say very much, I was thinking about all the times in the series when Ruth conveyed so much about what Jane was thinking just through a smile or a look. She's amazing at that. Ha ha.

The incest comment was funny. I remember thinking that myself when I first heard about the role.

[tabaothanh]

wow, soft voice

[blkRNcld101]

her eyebrows bug me...but beside that, i think shes one of my fav. Janes. i absolutley ADORE toby :) :) <3

[sanyam71]

Why did they took off the BBC Breakfast interview with Toby Stephens? I can't find it anywhere.

Can anybody upload it please!

And I think Ruth is so cute and doing a great job.

[anagg17]

dont read ajne eyre beacouse the other book would look like crap comparing to this and you will get borred becouse you dont have the same things of jane in the other books not just jane, the way charlotte writted is amazing pleas read this book the last day of your life then you will die really happy

[junejoyleng]

you are bizarre Anagg. Just go and read it and make everyday of your life a happy day!

[BarbieGirlMcAvoy]

I LOVE her accent!!!!!!

[kadhine]

and her voice!!!!!!

[Fritz108]

Her portrail of Jane Eyre in this wonderful adaptation is brilliant. She becomes more beautiful as you begin to see in side the person she is playing.

A wonderful actress!

[moneygob]

@Fritz108 yes she was brilliant in that!

[Reckoner65]

She's extremely beautiful, very quirky-looking and unconventional. And that voice... oh, man.

[coolhoney234]

she is the best Jane Eyre ever

[cindyaniston]

her mouth is so weird

[JessicainSwedenhere]

Ruth isn't ugly. If you compare her to the the other stars out there I guess she's in the "ugly"-list because she isn't a classic beauty.

I recommend reading Jane Eyre because it is the greatest book I've ever read, without doubt.

[oliviagale]

Not beautiful by any means, but Jane Eyre could not be a beauty.

[asilahvista]

It's nice to be nice but.. she's hideous looking. She could be beautiful on the inside but her outside is ugly. Just being honest.

[vnessa9]

Hey,im from portugal and 11th january 2009 i seen jane eyre,i never seen it.

Im starting to be fan of ruth wilson,the problem is,i really dont have any contact of her or that things,im really sad about that.

Can someone help me?PLZ i love her soo oooo much!!!

[Luriina]

Ola :) tambem vi pela primeira vez "Jane Eyre" graças à Rtp2. Ao principio fiquei triste pq nao ia dar a Britcom mas valeu a pena :DD

[nadiard]

another one here. i really loved it, i'm diyng to read the book to.

and ruth is so good, i wonder why i never saw her before in tv. :S

[xtninha]

Eu também vi Jane Eyre na RTP2 e fiquei fã, em especial do Toby Stephens :D. Já comprei o livro em Inglês e também é fantástico, embora um pouco diferente do filme. Se souberem onde posso comprar o DVD digam...

[alexanderleewang]

She's not a classic beauty but she's still beautiful... very lovely in that quiet way.

[n00bieCru]

ruth is gorgeous.

and seems fairly level-headed too, which is always good.

[judybeforejane]

I think she is not the normal beauty.

but i love her ,because she has done so well in jane eyre.

At last i am so sorry that i can't understand her fully,for my broken english.

[samsarha123]

creo que es muy bonita ,aunque la boca la tiene un poco rara

[blazian06]

duno came off kinda wanky now to me

[julia59]

My beloved Jane. She is unique.

Thank you for posting this!

[ADyingFaith]

wen was this interview?

[1wshalstead]

my ex girlfriend looks exactly like her. She is so gorgeous. how can you not like her awesome unique look?

I would love to go out with this girl

[curlysue27]

CAN people please let up on her looks? She has a very unique face which is certainly so much more interesting than the stereotypical beauty that's lauded in this culture.

[newgreenfrog]

I complitly agree with you

[DanielBombastic]

@curlysue27 i would wary her

[Raymint]

@curlysue27 Fuck that - SHE'S GORGEOUS! Can people please let up on her looks because general ignorance is still ignorance.

[abranlosojos23]

@curlysue27 I AGREE! OUR BEAUTY LIES IN THE UNIQUENESS OF OUR FEATURES, AS OUT OF THE ORDINARY AS THEY MAY BE. SHE HAS SOMETHING .... DOESN'T SHE? :0 )

[jojOUaaa]

15987631 (1 month ago) Show Hide +4 Marked as spam Reply | Spam I find her very charming. There are different forms of beauty; i'm afraid we are too used to the stereotyped Hollywdoo beauty..

i agree

[naheda101]

she looks so much prettier with natural make-up

[FantasmaLuna]

She has such a lovely silvery voice!

[IloveSirLancelot]

I know!! My thoughts exactly. She seems very nice and down-to-earth.

[sdragonrider]

i think her face is very unique and the way she played the character was amazing. she was excellent, in my opinion. if we want to talk eye brows- jack nickolson probably gets his roles in horror films because of them. ruth wilson can go very far in whatever she likes because of her acting skills. the first time i ever saw toby or ruth was in jane eyre and liked them the moment i saw it.

[15987631]

I find her very charming. There are different forms of beauty; i'm afraid we are too used to the stereotyped Hollywdoo beauty. :-)

[lucieinthesky19]

It's difficult to say that she's handsome... because of her mouth and eyesbrown! Futhermore in jane eyre she incarn one character who isn't beautiful so she feel no pretty. But i agree with the comments she is a good actress with a great personnality which is adapted for Jane...

[newt203]

She has a very unique face, in a good way, I mean. Personally I think she is even more beautiful in the movie when she looks more natural. Either way she`s very pretty.

[blink617]

its the mouth i think

[torigolddust]

I agree. She's pretty in a kind of strange way with just a twinge of not-so-pretty in her face, which is what makes her so unique-looking. I'm actually a full-time caricature artist so I'm always really attuned to people distinguishing features! (i get paid to emphasize people's quirks, what a kickass job lol!)

[gos11387]

I'm not surprised that right after stepping out of drama school, she got the part. My gosh, SHE totally nailed the character!!!

[t9xasrxs93]

Wow! She was beautiful in the movie without makeup but with it-- she looks great!

[Sindizwe]

I didn't think she wasn beautiful in the movie, at least not in the conventional sense, it was her charisma that made her pretty in it, and that's how it's supposed to be. Jane Eyre isn't supposed to be pretty, she's supposed to be plain and unspectacular. Ruth Wilson is very pretty though.

[GaryNull]

she's got a big bottom

[Chaffinch4]

How do you know?

[mommyj76]

Been away and just read your resonse to my comment, and all I can say is sorry you have such a low opinion of Toby Stephens. I have seen him in other things and he is a very good looking man in real life and his makeup for Rochester did not do him justice, however he was still one of the best looking Rochester I have ever seen and I have seen all of the Jane Eyre adaptations, and I still think he is sexy.

[jesuisdashit]

Damn she's hot.

[StrangerToEarth]

Jane Eyre is not only a fantastic and amazingly original book, just full of originality and that's all that can be said, but this adaption was just brilliant.

[mommyj76]

This adaptation of Jane Eyre is positively the finest yet. It gives another insight into Rochester and Toby Stephens was remarkable in the part. He is so sexy. Ruth Wilson is a joy to watch as an actress. She is very talented and I hope to see her in future BBC and Masterpiece Theatre works. I hope they team Wilson and Stephens again. They are very good together.

[StrangerToEarth]

I'm sorry, but he is NOT SEXY, in any and all sense of the word. He is probably the most hideous man who will ever star in a good period drama, and yet he's just brilliant and did the job splendidly.

[floridante]

You're mad

[myffgryff]

picking jaw up off the ground. sorry, but disagree strongly with that. sexy voice, cheeky twinkle in his eye, handsome etc etc etc. each to his/her own I suppose. but agree about the splendid job he did.

[alicese7en]

i love this drama!!~

[vazined]

she looks really different when she isn't dressed as Jane Eyre. She's pretty though with lots of talent :D

[rainbowspotter]

does anyone have the photo shoot? With Toby and Ruth? for Jane Eyre?

[radavis6]

We need Ruth Wilson in America!!!

[mstarfriend]

Loved it! That is all I can say at the moment. Loved it!

[RhiannonK81]

My tivo didn't record the second part of the Jane Eyre series!! I'm sooo angry!

[trinityforsaken]

i JUST finished watching the series and I absolutely fell in love with Ruth as an actress. shes phenomenal and i hope to see her again in another production :]

[dumyhary]

she sort of looks like Emma watson at 00:14

[zanwitch67]

Ruth Wilson is obviously so talented...she can win male and female fans equally...

[TobyStephens07]

I love her. Toby and Ruth were picture perfect on Jane Eyre!

[phieq]

LOVE her! I would kill for her eyebrows

[FantasmaLuna666]

I loved that production of JE and Ruth and Toby both did an amazing job. Kinda wished that St. John didn't look so much like Enrique Iglesias, though. Still, great production!

[jarvisel]

I love love love her! And I love her outfit!

[sunshinejklm]

ruth wilson is beautiful, the most talented actrees ive seen.

[phidivine]

she is amazing as jane eyre .... but what's wrong with her mouth? :))

[aradiapaganus]

She has an overbite, full lips and a small chin-- the combination is unique but she is still beautiful, and wonderful as Jane Erye. :D

[RLviddy]

You know what? I take what I said back. I love her as Jane. The whole series grew on me quite a lot.

[frchopin1810]

She is amazing, very beautiful, talented young british actress. So mature the same time.

[R1089]

i saw the movie jane erye and i loved her performance she has a distinct beauty in that film i mean when she play jane she was plain and dull but being plain made her beautiful in the film. great work gurl! talented

[angel0sophia]

She's great as Jane E!!! Hope 2 see her in more productions like this one! :)

[tazz222003]

An amazing actress. I was so impressed with her role of Jane Eyre; she embodied the character heart and soul. I cannot wait to see her future work.

[RLviddy]

I didn't love her as Jane Eyre. She made the character bossier than I think she needed to be, and played too much to the ending of the story.

[brzoza177]

doesn't she look like Angelina Jolie? Hair, personality.

[MandaMoni]

I'm so glad she mentioned Maggie was toby's mum! That makes 6 degrees of separation that much easier! I wonder if Ruth realizes how far this shows her. I mean who would have thought she'd have fan half way across the world a year after drama school.

[thebride6781]

She is so pretty and smart...good luck to your career, Ruth:)

[LeicaDi]

wow - shes sexy

[Leaderofpancakes]

Is she pregnant? it almost looks as if she is..or is it just the dress maybe?

[FantasmaLuna666]

No. She's just a healthy.

[Leaderofpancakes]

Right. Could be that I was comparing what she looks like in modern clothes to what she looked like in a corset.

[brzoza177]

I did not understand what he says: was there a tear in your eye watching back then?

[brzoza177]

I can not believe how young and beautiful she is, and smart. Her skin is so beautiful, and her face. Anyway they looked great toghether in Jane Erye. Since I got the DVD two weeks ago,I watched this movie at least 20 times.

[corrupt200]

she looks like kirstie alley

[kayxyz]

Thanks, right, no one in the US would have seen this clip of Ruth. As JE, she's awesome, and b/c some of Rochester's definitive scenes are omitted or altered in the production, Ruth pulls Toby into her spotlight and makes him as good as he can be, for this production.

[brzoza177]

Ruth Wilson is very pretty and intelligent actress. I loved her in Jane Erye.

[fifiricci]

Very good! Ruth Wilson seems very nice. And she has possibly the second most impressive pair of eyebrows I've ever seen (after Fiona Bruce lol).

[Elbenhexe]

She is a very fantastic actress! I love that interview thanks for sharing! :-)

[windblownrose]

Flodi41, it's "strumpet". You know, as in slut, harlot, trollop.

[cheriann3]

ruth wilson is so sweet! i'm looking forward to seeing her in many more things. maybe something else with Toby?!

[Flodi41]

Strong pit?

[jadore1989]

Ha! Toby's Mum!

[ravengrace]

Wonderful to see her 'au naturelle'. So nice that she teared up when they showed the reunion scene - she must be a softy. I'm in Australia and missed this on the telly as well, so thanks very much. I'd like to hear what Maggie Smith has to say about working with her

[sexygully88]

thanks for this!!

[kathalinasenta]

Thanks so much penny for posting this! I'm in the US so wouldn't have a chance in heck of catching this otherwise!

[pennyforyourdreams]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[snikrup]

Well done!! I was gutted when I heard I missed this, this morning! She looks very different!!!
