@doctorcropcircles No its Link, Zelda is the princess if you are going to be picky about something when the person who is wrong is obviously not a gamer or a geek, please get it right. Especially when its one of the most well know games of any generation.
Hes brillant as the Doctor. Superb laid back nonchalent air about his performance. Far less irritable than Tennant and more charismatic than Eccles. If Davies had stayed we would have ended up with Russell Tovey (George the Werewolf in Being Human) which would not have worked at all imho.
Hey, has any of you heard that the ponds are leaving in the next series of doctor who? I'm going to miss them so much, the show won't be the same without them.
@doctorwhogirl28 ...... you know, you could also say that it hasn't been the same since Susan left, but, well, you probably don't know who that is, do you?
Im very shocked to see the negative comments about Gillian's interview, i understand what their about but iv been a big Xfiles and Gillian fan from the beginning and iv seen a lot of interviews and heard a lot about her, and believe me she is definitely not bitchy or arrogant, the opposite in fact and people hav said she is one of the nicest stars. And very generous to her fans as well. I think if you hav only seen 1 or 2 inerviews by her i understand you may not know a lot about her ways maybe
Not at all - she just distances herself from some of the saddo's who go to hese conventions. How else should she refer to a guy crying while dressed up as an elf thing as he talks to her and her costar?
@ffmarkm These are the people who are her fans, the people who bought X-Files DVDs. The people who paid for her house most likely. Ok she doesn't have to like them, but at the same time she doesn't have to talk about them as if they're scum or a lower form of species from her, which she clearly does here. They are human beings. Take Matt Smith. I imagine he is freaked out by some of the people at ComicCon, but he talks about them so nicely and treats them with respect. She doesn't even try.
@ffmarkm Hmm - when they are paying for the DVDs etc., from which she profits, I'm not sure that it's fair to slag them off. More importantly, she's being unneccessarily cruel. I'm sure I'd be freaked out by elf-costume-wearing obsessives, but I'd express my feelings in private, not on a chatshow that said obsessive fans are probably watching.
gillian looks really skinny. i like how hee personality changes as well as her accent. from stiff upper lip british to giggly outgoing american. oh gillian.
Christmas is supposed to be the time of the year for spiritual reflection, but instead it has become the time to enforce material existence. Material things will not help us overcome our personal problems, they will only bury them deeper. We need to face the truth about life and ourselves in order to be truly happy. If you would like to face the truth, search Truth Contest in google and click on the first result. Then check out "The Present" on the homepage.
I dont know why so many people are so invested in her being a nice person. she's clearly bitchy and snobby and arrogant. but i dont really care...if she wasnt such a good actress, i wouldnt see her and scully as completely separate entities, and comments like this would probably taint the show for me.
I'm a bit uncomfortable with this show, it's so often laughing someone or something down, it just doesn't feel very nice in general :/ (I know, nobody forces me to watch it etcetc, I come because of the guests and then I'm more like "...Uhm...")
When you've had to deal with as many overly obsessive fans as Gillian has had to deal with for about 20yrs I'm sure you'd be a little exasperated too. I am one of those overly obsessive fans and let me tell you, we do make her feel uncomfortable but you just can't help yourself. Her fans will know that she always has a faux pas moment in an interview and that comment happens to be this one. I'm not going to hold it against her, and neither should you, she's a human being. Trust me she's lovely
@pauseTV Intresting fact she's actually american and a natural red-head. She did the x files for 9 years and she then moved over here full time. Since then she's done british thearte, period dramas and britsh films. They've all required a britsh accent and seen as she's been over here for a while she's now has a brtish twang to her accent:)
@PuckleberryFuinn86 I didn't know what you were on about, I thought you believed there was such thing as a British accent. And I didn't know taking 2 minutes to respond to you was such a long period of time.
@PuckleberryFuinn86 Not forgetting from the age of 2-11yrs old she lived in London, so for her childhood years, she probably learnt to talk with an English accent first.
LOL. AWESOME. I organized the group of Doctors (I was Hartnell) and it made our con! Matt and Karen were so cool with us. Our Tom Baker sadly missed the moment by a few minutes because he had to find his wife. BTW the girl on the end is Dodo Chaplet, a companion in the Hartnell era. We have a photoshoppped pic with the 4th Doctor though to complete this as he's my fav Doctor (and the one I usually costume as). Fun interview!
Gillian's lucky to even HAVE a career, much less fans. She was BLESSED having that role, and here she comes making fun of a fan who was moved to crying by meeting her at her ONE TIME at Comic Con.... Real classy.
@btvs87 Here's what I do know: She was a short, chubby NY stage actress who "didn't want to do TV" because she thought it "beneath her" until Chris Carter convinced her to do the TV show, and now she's an overpaid, over lauded cow who thinks it's really funny to make fun of her fans. I think I know enough
@hustonhuddleston Here's what I know: The first part might be true (except for the chubby part and the "beneath her" part. What's wrong with not wanting to do TV. God knows TV in 1992 was not what it is today!), but you're waaay wrong on the second part. Like I said on my other comment, don't talk if you don't know, I wasn't disrespectful so I don't want others to be. You clearly don't know. I'm not saying what she did was okay, but all the rest you've said is completly wrong.
@btvs87 If you're so much of an a Gillian lover as you profess, you'd know that she and Carter have stated on numerous occasions that she did not want to be on a TV show (instead of being honored and grateful as any NORMAL person would be) and she was indeed chubby (as can be seen by her stage photos) and bitchy (as numerous people who've met her can testify) and arrogant (as her phony British accent will tell you) Any more questions class?
@hustonhuddleston I had written another reply, but then I realized that I'm just "feeding" you. I'm done replying to you, you're arrogant with the way you write and then have the nerve to call others arrogant. You have your facts all mixed up and I'm not going to waste my time with a troll who has too much free time. Do your homework.
@btvs87 I really wanted to start off by pointing out the difference between chubby and pregnant and go from there...but then like you I thought, why feed the monster! lol
Do people realize that Gillian Anderson was one of the most influential women on television for approximately 10 years? We wouldn't even have shows like Fringe with strong female characters if it weren't for actors like her who busted down the conventional "female roles" wall. Having Matt Smith and Gillian Anderson on the same show is a ridiculous amount of lovely <3
Gah!! A Link cosplayer!! Wicked! While watching this video though, i kept shouting "Link, Link, Link, Link, Link... (etc.)" at my computer screen. ^_^
Man, this guy dressed as Zelda must be really proud of himself 'cause Gillian herself keeps saying she has a terrible memory yet she always remembers him/her (as she said once, 'cause she didn't remember the person's gender lol).
Also, everyone having a go at Gillian, look into other interviews, she's a bit, shall we say sheltered. She has said that she rarely watches TV. I've met her twice and she was so kind to my friend who looked like she was about to explode with excitement. She more than likely just doesn't understand conventions.
@purpledreams92 Oh my God hey Becki. I was unbelievably excited wasn't I? (assuming you meant me haha) Sometimes all I remember is running round in circles and screaming before she came out. I hate all this Gillian hate from people who don't understand her awkward nature. The two times we met her she was so generous with her time, especially the first time when we weren't even meant to be waiting for her round the back. Maybe she had had a bad day that day? She does look more tense than usual.
@florencelovme 1. Mark isn't her husband he's her long term boyfriend. 2. Her american accent is her fake accent which she's admitted several times, she grew up in London. 3. Your accent can change after a long time, I grew up in New York, moved to England and my accent changed but naturally change accents whenever I visit family in America.
Gillian always tell this story a bit different whenever people ask her about an odd experience with fans and etc. She got wrong because it wasnt the elf person who cried but another odd women in the audience. The funny thing is that even the other fans who were in attendence were shocked by the lady crying. I guess she mixes on propouse in order not to identify who the person is...and is like her fun story to tell LOL... Love her.
@KARENK72886 Well she spent part of her childhood in London, so she says that's why she uses that accent in England, and american accent when she is in the U.S. or Canada. I love her, but that IS a little weird. Actors must all be eccentric in one way or another, I guess.
I feel that if you don't follow Gillian Anderson's career or how she is/was with fans or what she did during The X Files' run, then you shouldn't bash her because of one stupid comment. Thanks!
@btvs87 I do follow her career and I quite enjoy her work, but this one story was a bit abrasive and offensive to some. Perhaps she didn't mean it to be but it was...It's not really bashing her if you point out that it was kind of tasteless. Still, there are people who do bash her and that's kind of ridiculous. We've all put our foot in our mouths at one time or other.
@ravenradams Yeah, I didn't really liked it. She told this story a bunch of times, not always this way, so if you really follow her you should be used to it by now, she's always asked this question. She's incredibly kind with her fans and everyone says she's one of the nicest celebs around. She spend 90s at XF conventions. To be honest, there are lots of people who think the same but pretend not to, at least (if she really feels that way which I doubt) she's honest.
@btvs87 Ah, I see. I follow her work not her interviews. I rarely watched celebrity interviews until the last couple of years now that these shows are put on the internet so fast and so easily.
And sometimes she can be brutally honest . i still would prefer this than she pretending everything were roses. And yes she has always being very supportive of the XF events.
@cheesemangall 'That woman'? You just made me feel old.... lol
Matt Smith is lovely but he's been around about 10mins, Gillian Anderson is a real cultural icon!
Also, I realise you don't know who she is...so I'm not having a go, just wanted to say she has a reputation for being AMAZING with fans and always has used her profile to campaign and do fantastic charity work. I think she finds the 'geekgasm' adoration a bit overwhelming sometimes & that might have just come across the wrong way! :-)
@kate22uk I re-read my comment and you're right, I was quite ignorant! After googling I do know who she is haha didn't reconise her without the read hair and I apolagise for my ignorance, I do still feel however that she was rude about someone who was clearly a fan and I feel that is wrong, especially since they're the ones who keep her career healthy, though like you said I don't know a lot about her so it may be a misjudgment.
@cheesemangall You can't be expected to know who everyone is ;-)
Yeah possibly misjudged, would hate to think anyone's feelings would be hurt, but unintentional so. She's very private & think even after all these years she still doesn't get why people find her a big deal, someone dressed like that reacting so emotionally just for asking a question would totally baffle her! lol
I'm a loyal fan so I'm very bias...but she has such loyal fans for a reason and she really is a lovely person :-)
Well when he asked he didnt answer and passed the ball to Gillian give her thought... I dont know if he gets what comincon is abot. She was honest and to pretend there arent weirdos...
By now Gillian has lived in UK more than in US. 11 years as young children and 10 years since 2002 what makes this 21 years more 5 years of Canada.. and only 17 of US...
It's so two-faced of some celebs to go to places like ComicCon and then come away and say how weird it was and hint at how stupid they thought all the fans seemed.
Matt Smith and Karen Gillan, however, get it. They're both fantastic sports and don't look down on fans as weirdos. GO MAZZA'N'KAZZA! (as I believe they're known in some circles) ;)
@thedoctorwho07 She was at WonderCon in 2008 promoting The X Files movie, she never went to these things and it was like a special occasion. I don't like what she said on this video, but I'm not going to judge her either because she has done great things for XF fans which were also were for charity. Sometimes she can be really clueless about things, like she didn't even know what LOST was! (not that it matters anyway)
@8pongping Yeah the default with most seems to be "Sci-fi fans - weirdos". Gillian Anderson seems like a nice person but the way she falls for this ridiculous stereotype is so stupid - annoyingly, Alex Kingston seems to have fallen for the cliche of the 'nerdy fan' as well.
@thedoctorwho07 Well, some encounters are really strange and surreal. I'd tell stories too. The difference is in the tone. Whenever Alex talks about her fan encounters, I never get a feeling of disdain from her. It feels more like fascination for something that she has never done, so she doesn't quite understand it. I can understand that. And she often qualifies her stories with comments about how lovely the fans are and such. Gillian's comments just feel like complete condescension and mockery.
It's Dodo Chaplet, Matt!

Do people realize that Gillian Anderson was one of the most influential women on television for approximately 10 years? We wouldn't even have shows like Fringe with strong female characters if it weren't for actors like her who busted down the conventional "female roles" wall. Having Matt Smith and Gillian Anderson on the same show is a ridiculous amount of lovely <3

Man, this guy dressed as Zelda must be really proud of himself 'cause Gillian herself keeps saying she has a terrible memory yet she always remembers him/her (as she said once, 'cause she didn't remember the person's gender lol).

Also, everyone having a go at Gillian, look into other interviews, she's a bit, shall we say sheltered. She has said that she rarely watches TV. I've met her twice and she was so kind to my friend who looked like she was about to explode with excitement. She more than likely just doesn't understand conventions.
purpledreams92 2 months ago 11
@purpledreams92 Oh my God hey Becki. I was unbelievably excited wasn't I? (assuming you meant me haha) Sometimes all I remember is running round in circles and screaming before she came out. I hate all this Gillian hate from people who don't understand her awkward nature. The two times we met her she was so generous with her time, especially the first time when we weren't even meant to be waiting for her round the back. Maybe she had had a bad day that day? She does look more tense than usual.

@florencelovme 1. Mark isn't her husband he's her long term boyfriend. 2. Her american accent is her fake accent which she's admitted several times, she grew up in London. 3. Your accent can change after a long time, I grew up in New York, moved to England and my accent changed but naturally change accents whenever I visit family in America.

Gillian always tell this story a bit different whenever people ask her about an odd experience with fans and etc. She got wrong because it wasnt the elf person who cried but another odd women in the audience. The funny thing is that even the other fans who were in attendence were shocked by the lady crying. I guess she mixes on propouse in order not to identify who the person is...and is like her fun story to tell LOL... Love her.

@KARENK72886 or has an affected accent??
KARENK72886 2 months ago in playlist The Graham Norton Show - BBC One
@KARENK72886 Well she spent part of her childhood in London, so she says that's why she uses that accent in England, and american accent when she is in the U.S. or Canada. I love her, but that IS a little weird. Actors must all be eccentric in one way or another, I guess.

I feel that if you don't follow Gillian Anderson's career or how she is/was with fans or what she did during The X Files' run, then you shouldn't bash her because of one stupid comment. Thanks!
btvs87 2 months ago 29
@btvs87 I do follow her career and I quite enjoy her work, but this one story was a bit abrasive and offensive to some. Perhaps she didn't mean it to be but it was...It's not really bashing her if you point out that it was kind of tasteless. Still, there are people who do bash her and that's kind of ridiculous. We've all put our foot in our mouths at one time or other.
ravenradams 2 months ago
@ravenradams Yeah, I didn't really liked it. She told this story a bunch of times, not always this way, so if you really follow her you should be used to it by now, she's always asked this question. She's incredibly kind with her fans and everyone says she's one of the nicest celebs around. She spend 90s at XF conventions. To be honest, there are lots of people who think the same but pretend not to, at least (if she really feels that way which I doubt) she's honest.

@cheesemangall 'That woman'? You just made me feel old.... lol
Matt Smith is lovely but he's been around about 10mins, Gillian Anderson is a real cultural icon!
Also, I realise you don't know who she is...so I'm not having a go, just wanted to say she has a reputation for being AMAZING with fans and always has used her profile to campaign and do fantastic charity work. I think she finds the 'geekgasm' adoration a bit overwhelming sometimes & that might have just come across the wrong way! :-)

@kate22uk I re-read my comment and you're right, I was quite ignorant! After googling I do know who she is haha didn't reconise her without the read hair and I apolagise for my ignorance, I do still feel however that she was rude about someone who was clearly a fan and I feel that is wrong, especially since they're the ones who keep her career healthy, though like you said I don't know a lot about her so it may be a misjudgment.

@cheesemangall You can't be expected to know who everyone is ;-)
Yeah possibly misjudged, would hate to think anyone's feelings would be hurt, but unintentional so. She's very private & think even after all these years she still doesn't get why people find her a big deal, someone dressed like that reacting so emotionally just for asking a question would totally baffle her! lol
I'm a loyal fan so I'm very bias...but she has such loyal fans for a reason and she really is a lovely person :-)

It's so two-faced of some celebs to go to places like ComicCon and then come away and say how weird it was and hint at how stupid they thought all the fans seemed.
Matt Smith and Karen Gillan, however, get it. They're both fantastic sports and don't look down on fans as weirdos. GO MAZZA'N'KAZZA! (as I believe they're known in some circles) ;)
thedoctorwho07 2 months ago 3
@thedoctorwho07 She was at WonderCon in 2008 promoting The X Files movie, she never went to these things and it was like a special occasion. I don't like what she said on this video, but I'm not going to judge her either because she has done great things for XF fans which were also were for charity. Sometimes she can be really clueless about things, like she didn't even know what LOST was! (not that it matters anyway)

btvs87 2 months ago
@8pongping Yeah the default with most seems to be "Sci-fi fans - weirdos". Gillian Anderson seems like a nice person but the way she falls for this ridiculous stereotype is so stupid - annoyingly, Alex Kingston seems to have fallen for the cliche of the 'nerdy fan' as well.
thedoctorwho07 2 months ago
@thedoctorwho07 Well, some encounters are really strange and surreal. I'd tell stories too. The difference is in the tone. Whenever Alex talks about her fan encounters, I never get a feeling of disdain from her. It feels more like fascination for something that she has never done, so she doesn't quite understand it. I can understand that. And she often qualifies her stories with comments about how lovely the fans are and such. Gillian's comments just feel like complete condescension and mockery.
ravenradams 2 months ago
@ravenradams That's true, actually, yeah. Alex is nice about it, whereas Gillian just seems disdainful about fans.
