  • What a lovely soft spoken woman. She was too good for John. John deserved yoko!

  • Ah Wogans not a bad bloke. People stutter and say things the wrong way when they're anxious.

  • Why is he being mean ):

    Poor Cynthia I wish I could go up to him and punch him in the face -.-

  • I can't believe his rude remark!

  • This is a gem of a snippet, although I was really interested in that story of the Snack Bar in Paignton :O(

  • @stoob1969 lolololol I was waiting to hear some story of John stopping off for a cuppa or something and hiding behind the tea urn from rabid fans. You made something very ordinary very funny. Thanks.

  • @dundonian35 lol no problem! I was born in Paignton, Devon and that story would have been very nostalgic for me ;o)

  • What an incredibly sweet woman! She is so soft-spoken and only has such lovely things to say despite her torment.

  • LOVE YOU CYNTHIA , YOU IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN !!!!!!!!!!!!PEACE FOR YOU AND YOUR SON JULIAN !!!!!!!!!!!

  • i do not like lennon , that left cynthia for yoko ono, .I always be have liking for cynthia but for lennon no !im have more respect for Cyn than for lennon !

  • I could think of a hundred better topics to start an interview with, rather than hair.

    Especially considering that it's Cynthia Lennon.

    Wogan you fool.

  • What.... a fucking.... asshole.....

    Holy fuck.... I would LOVE to punch him in the face for being such an ignorant prick

    He is talking to her like she's NOTHING!!! Like he knows more than her!!!!

    I've never seen anything like it.... absolutely unbelievable.....

  • This Wogan guy needs to be kicked in the teeth.

  • i dont like how he keeps interrupting her while shes tries to talk...and all he talks about is her life with john lennon.

  • possibly the worst interviewer I've EVER seen ., unbeliebably bad - but she did an outstanding job of answering his questions anyway . What a classy lady .

  • what a gorgeous voice !!

  • LOVE CYNTHIA<3

  • He should have stayed with Cynthia, but then again who am I to say that apart from being a fan of John Lennon for over 40 years. Then again he obviously loved Yoko and that was that.

  • Terry Wogan is a prick, why is he asking if she is stuck in a time warp because of her hair? His hair hasnt changed for decades, or should I say WIG! Cynthia is a special lady and has done a great job bringing Julian up on her own.........

  • @bonbon101164 Terry Wogan says when he interviewing David Icke that America is a free country.

  • @SOUPRUN01

    I'm a big fan of David Icke - Terry Wogan is a greedy greedy man.....

  • she is a real angel. the nicest person ever. I love her. ♥

    it really made me sad about what happened to her. but it's always the good people that are suffering in life.I'm glad she's happy now, but I strongly believe that she and John will reunite once again when they meet again in heaven. :) because they WERE perfect together! ♥

  • why did John leave cynthia for Yoko? who knows. We only see the public surface so we don't know what these peoples lives were like but there was something about Yoko that is unsettling. Something negative. I always felt John was the ticket for Yoko to publicize herself and her artwork. I feel she was controlling and used John but as I said, we only see the surface.

  • DO NOT LIKE THIS INTERVIEWER

  • @BrandonJoshuaMusic

    He is a down right prick!

  • @BrandonJoshuaMusic yes???????? AND I DO NOT LIKE ALL THE INTERVIEWS YOKO ONO !!!!!!

  • This guy is a dork. Cynthia is da bomb.

  • I can't seem to understand why John treated her so bad and left her for Yoko... She was such a beautiful woman, inside and out.

  • Wogan lacked some tact in his first comments...but I would take it as a compliment if someone told me I still looked the same after what, 20 some years? and she did look great!!

  • What a gracious woman. Very forgiving toward John dumping her. Unlike Yoko, she never looked for fame. I can't imagine what Cynthia lived being John's wife. She did him a big favor raising their son.

  • I love Synthia!

  • Terry Wogan = Legend :P 

  • I think Cynthia was even better looking before she had her nose job in the mid 60s

  • People who say Ono ruined Lennon's marriageand say John was happier with Cynthia don't know what theyre talking about ; Lennon was deeply unhappy before he met Yoko, wanted out of his marriage and told close friend Klaus Voorman the same before he met her. It wasn't Cynthia's fault who remains as always, a lovely, genuine, charming, attractive woman. But Lennon was half mad and erratic, changeable, insecure to the point of instability, unpredictable maybe manic. His first marriage was doomed

  • i love the noise on old tapes like 0:10

  • John Lennon like man died when he left Cyn.. Yoko sucks..

  • I've never really known much about her but she seems sweet and genuine in this intereview.

  • John might still by alive if hed stayed with her. And everyone forgets about Julian - he was born a few days after me in April 1963 and John deserted him when he left for Yoko. Well, life isnt perfect is it. Show me a perfect family - I dont know one. I did meet Cynthia once when she toured with the Pete Best Band in the 1990s.

  • good old cyn

  • glasses are hidious

  • She seems SO great! She beats the HELL out of Yoko! Why the heck didn't he stay with her?! Seems like a foolish thing to have left her but that's my opinion. LOL

  • Cynthia reminds me of Terri Garr....

  • i love cynthia lennon. she's so much better than yoko.

  • What a dickhead this clown is...he needs to fire his barber and tailor...then again he needs to fire himself.

  • John use to slap and beat Cynthia :( She had to marry him because she had a baby in her stomach she still probably loved him but he was cruel to her. John cheat on Cynthia with Yoko :/ I wouldn't wanna feel her pain D: Look up Cynthia Lennon and read her encyclopedia. I reveals alot AND read her book.

  • @TheBeatlesavedmusic a) Although they rushed into matrimony because Cynthia was pregnant, John did love Cynthia, othewise he would just have walked out on her ;

    b) Read Cynthia's book again : she herself states that John only hit her once, he didn't do it on a regular basis. It's still unacceptable, but that doesn't make him a wife-beater.

    c) Yes, John cheated Cynthia, many times, not just with Yoko. Therefore, I would blame John, not Yoko (or to a lesser extent).

  • @Cessounette I blame John, I like Yoko :) I know he loved her but he just didn't know how to treat a wife. He was young and selfish but at least he was good to Yoko.

  • @TheBeatlesavedmusic read cynthias book. that might change your mind...

  • @TheBeatlesavedmusic Good comment FOR A CHANGE !! ; everybody blames Yoko for 'breaking' John's marriage, but HE did what he wanted to do ; he wasnt stupid. People change, and John, though I'm a huge fan since the mid 60s, was a mixed up and insecure person and always looking for something new. He did love Cynthia I think deep down but that was him and his changing and artistic temperament. Cynthia is lovely though and John & Yoko lasted at least

  • @TheKenfig So, if John wanted out of the marriage to Cyn why not be a MAN and tell her. He AND Yoko sneaked around UNTILL Cyn caught them . That I can not respect but Cyn is better off without a cheating husband. I do NOT hate John and Yoko, but I cant respect certain ACTIONS...huge differance.

  • @rockinrobintweets It's not that easy to just do that for anyone. A marriage break up is bad for everyone concerned often. Cynthia was NOT at fault but their marriage was doomed and they would not have married if it wasn't for the baby. John was too changeable and mixed up as a person and she was too 'normal' and grounded for him. Cynthia has had more marriage break ups than John did though

  • @TheKenfig Ratter they would have married had she not gotten pregant, no one knows because she DID get pregant with JOHN S CHILD.....she didnt get pregnant by herself. Is it EASEY to tell someone thier marruage is over, NO, but that is what an adult dose, be a MAN about it. When is it easier for the wife to caught her husband cheating...that is down right CRUEL. I like some of John s song s , he had talent but he was down right cruel to Cyn AND Jullian

  • @rockinrobintweets He was mean to them sometimes, but he was not a cruel man, loved them both and took care of them

  • @TheKenfig What drugs are you on, he may have loved them in his sad twisted way but he was a cruel man in some ways....no qustion he was cruel to Cyn...that tiny bit of money at the divorce was NOTHING even in 1968 for a mother and 5 year old child to live on HIS CHILD FOR GOSH SAKE S. John RARELY saw Jullian after he lieft Cyn...that is CUREL and MEAN. A great singer / songwritter, ok but he was not good to Cyn and Jullian. But Yoko is even worse

  • @rockinrobintweets Oh my God, what kind of obsessive person are you ? ; I don't intend to spend the rest of my LIFE having this pointless exchange about one popstar's personal activities of nearly 50 years ago !

  • @TheKenfig When is the facts being obsessive, they are just mere facts nothing more and nothing less. I hold no hate for John Lennon but I will not re write HISTORY just because he is dead, that is a huge griant differance. None of us is perfact, we all screw up but an adult admits it , makes or trys to make amends and moves on...I believe in forgiveness , but that dosent mean it never happened, other wise, what would you be forgiveing.

  • @rockinrobintweets Look, with respect, YOU are obsessive ABOUT it all. I think you seem to be too worked up about someone else's life that happened a VERY long time ago. Maybe it is bothering you too much. It's not really very important, not any more than the average person's marriage break up is to them. Even this interview is 26 years old. I think you ought to put things into perspective now and not dwell on it. Focus more on your own happiness is all I'm saying. Take it easy

  • @TheKenfig Well see it your way I see it mine. That is ok with me. Have an awesome blessed day. God Bless. God keep.

  • @rockinrobintweets Same to you

  • cynthia seems like a really nice lady

  • Da beginning music made meh dance!x3

  • lennon was really an ass to cynthia.

  • YOKO ONO RACIST HATERS SUCK !

    With all due respect to a fine woman such  as John's first wife, Synthia Lennon.

  • Comment removed

  • I read her book.it made me cry...

  • @ania0the0amazing her book made me cry too:( she has suffered so much!!!

    and I really like her<3

  • I like Cyn, i thought she was hot in the 60s shes still pretty now tho

  • why did he call her cynthia lennon? does she still have Lennon as her last name

  • all these years cyn has held her head up high, a very pertty girl what i dig is she could

    have made a mint ,no just move on intellgent and cool , thank you mrs lennon

  • john was his happiest and healthiest with cynthia from the early 50s to around 1966.

    after 1966 i hate him he turned into a whole new person he was not the cute, sexy, witty funny crazy john i love and what he all love. he turned into some fucked up cruel drug addict who wasn't like the beatle john and he only cared for drugs and yoko, so i pretend the beatle john died in late 1966. because he changed so much i don't even count them as the same man.

  • @ilovekirkir you stupid bitch!and maniac

  • Cant believe how badly she was treated in this interview, loved the way she looked at her hand when they shook. terry is really rude here!!! John was an asshole to cynthia. He preached about love and left his own wife and son. Not much of lover ay?

  • @chantalsophia08 This interviewer is weird. I hated that first question about her being stuck in the 60s. And she was never famous as John Lennon's wife and avoided cameras, so obviously she's not pining for that fame she never sought. I think he's basing his questions on some simplistic stereotypes about Miss Havisham and 'a woman scorned' or something.

  • Cynthia was amazing. I always felt really bad for her, she was treated quite badly. What drugs can do....

  • shouldn't her accent be a little less posh and bit more scouse?

  • @fueradeljuego Why? she came from the posh part of liverpool, we dont all speak like brookside characters!

  • Why shouldn't Cynthia have an opportunity to discuss her life. She lived it! Her story deserves to be told. Maybe it will help in the healing process.

    John chose Yoko and all I can say is that is what DRUGS do to you. Destroy your life and all those around you who love you.

    Such a waste. I wonder what would have happened if John never would have delved so deeply into drugs.

  • @holycow92883 well if he didn't get so deeply into drugs he would of lived a long happy healthy life with cynthia and his son. he would of never gotten killed. but he chose the wrong path and now look at him hes dead

    i don't even count him as the same john from 1940 to 1966. after around 1966 there came a new john

    john ono that is and john lennon died in 1966.

    r.i.p john 1940-1966

  • @holycow92883 He just fell in love, I don't think he destroyed his life, he was married to yoko for over 10 years and was pretty happy the older he got, If john didn't delve so deeply into drugs half of the songs he wrote wouldn't have existed, also he'd been doing drugs since he was a teenager. And then he got murdered by a maniac who believed in Jesus, that is what JESUS does to you.

  • @MysticSkySpirit

    Jesus doesn't do that to you MENTAL ILLNESS DOES.

  • @MysticSkySpirit The more you believe in Jesus the more derranged you tend to be, I don't literally believe Jesus had that much to do with it, although his murderer definately believed in him, I don't think I've ever met an adult who hasn't done drugs of some kind.. 'Nothin' to kill or die for, and no religion too'

  • Ikr leave cynthia alone about those qs

    He's even worse than Larry king

  • @tatemick1 NO ONE was as bad as Larry King! Interesting that Cynthia is saying she wants to get on with life,yet she wrote books, and accepts interviews concerning John.Don't get me wrong,I like her very much,but she sounds like she's still in pain.

  • wogan seems like such a cunt!

  • This is the worst interviewer ever !!

  • Wogan seems crazy to me,,,his pronouns are all wrong in his intro. I agree that prettiness should not come into this at all.

  • Yoko was not well received by many and she was blamed for Johns decision to leave the beatles so she may have had a little anamousity toward Cynthia. John choose Yoko and it was his decision to make.

  • @2dam6y4u THANK YOU!!!! People need to respect the decisions that John made, bith professionally and personally. It's good to have sane people like you to agree with.

  • @2dam6y4u fuck you he died in 1966 and fuck john ono. john is not the same person after 1966

    he died and some drug addict fucked up asshole replaced him with the name john too but john ono

    FUCK JOHN ONO

    JOHN LENNON IS THE BEST.

  • not only does yoko suck but cynthia was better for john... but cynthia is actually pretty

  • She seems to be a person who knows who she is. I think that makes her a rarity.

  • I must agree that i do like Cynthia a lot better than Yoko. But John was wild, and couldn`t stay with someone who wasn`t.

  • Wogan must have had sweaty palms or something

  • Does Cynthia Lennon actually do anything other than whining about how John left her and writing an awful book? I'm beginning to see WHY he left her; John was a vibrant quirky individual, and Cynthia's the definition of boring- there's nothing there! Say what you want about Yoko, at least she's productive! Whether you like it or not, at least she actually does something, and she suited John much more than Cynthia...

  • @videogamenostalgia What's your problem, if you don't like Cynthia. Why are you watching her interview, and reading her books. Just switch over to Yoko Ono channels, on you tube there are many many interviews with Yoko for you to enjoy.

  • @1365225 I was just wondering. It seems she's being doing the same interview for 50 years...

  • @videogamenostalgia Yeah so what, look dear if you don't like what she says. Well just don't listen, I mean no one is putting a gun to your head. Turn over and watch Yoko perform.

  • she seems like a nice lady and did a good job with bringing up julian

  • haha i love the fact she looks at her hand after shking wogans hand lol

  • FUCK YOKO ONO!!! SHE'S WEIRDDDDDDDDDD!!! STRANGERRRSSSSS!!!!!

  • @asrinii and fuck the john after 1966

  • i love Cynthia...fuck Yoko Oh No!!!

  • What a beautiful, gracious woman. John was very lucky.

  • @IsisTiamat so true, I read her book John and it was amazing.

  • a remarkable woman!!!!

    everyone should read her book- JOHN

  • Cynthia seems like a really nice person. Very pretty. 180 degrees of "the other" wife.

  • What a crass interviewer - he tells a woman she's in a time warp, sheesh.

  • I love John, I love Cynthia and I have respect for both of them..but I honestly think that they would have separeted even if John had'nt met Yoko.

  • He asks strange questions, but she is so graceful in her replies. I don't particularly like the interviewer's style, but it is fascinating to see Cynthia handle the interview. She seems naturally kind hearted and very bright. Julian has a great mum doesn't he. Dad's great of course too in many ways, but she had nearly all the responsibilities. I think Julian is terrific too.

  • yoko ono sucks...

  • @naren2087 willy?She sucked Johns hahaha

  • @naren2087 I take it you know her personally, then ?

  • @naren2087 shut up and grow up

  • @TheKenfig u not seen 44 likins..u grow up..

  • @naren2087 Who gives a shit what you've seen ; grow up

  • aww l love her! i feel so bad for her... but tht was years ago so i guess i shouldnt... but its kinda hard not to feel SOMETHING ya know???

  • cynthia stuck with john from when he literally had to beg for gigs at seedy night clubs until he became an international phenomenon. i cant believe he left this loving woman on such terrible terms for yoko ono and threw her under the bus.

    read "John" by Cynthia Lennon if you want to know more about her role in his life...verry interesting book

  • Yoko sucks.

  • she was very pretty but looks awful in those glasses :L

  • I've always felt bad for Cynthia. She seems like a very nice person.

  • @freklfacejpgr defo shes lovely,and was a babe when younger lol

  • John & Cynthia met at art school in Liverpool and she helped him with his art exams (because he had done no work!). She became pregnant and they got married.  He had no money when they met, so she wasn't a gold digger and never has been. He became a mega-star, met somebody else and moved on, sad though that was. That's about it folks.

  • Compared to Cynthia, Yoko was an ugly b*tch; both inside and out.

    I hate all of these stories saying that Cynthia was a golddigger when in reality John loved her very much until both drugs and Yoko made him leave her

  • @IwillKillYourCereal ah, John was responsible for his own actions, for deciding on taking drugs and taking a mistress. No one but John is really to blame for his sad and destructive choices. I do not approve of Yoko pursuing a married man, but she holds no responsiblity for his decisions. That's hard for people who admire John to accept.

  • Cynthia is such a nice person.

  • wow Cynthia looks so beautiful

  • Wow...Cynthia's such a classy lady...impressive.

  • God, she's pretending to be so innocent and perfect! SHE'S EVIL! She tried to kill john, Julian, Sean, and Yoko!

  • The first guy interviewed was really short

  • What a lovely person.

  • @TheAltoQueen course he did drugs, he was the walrus

  • @KungfuCow5 lol

  • @lifestraight lol? lol= Laughter of Lambs? A CULT?! WHAT THE HELL?! *runs away with arms flailing about in terror* *runs into wall* Oh Bugger!

  • @KungfuCow5 I think I was laughing at ur comment about him being The Walrus.

  • @lifestraight Erm... Okay, How nice for you. Have a nice day.

  • @KungfuCow5 What's this mean??

  • @TheAltoQueen shallow

  • @TheAltoQueen Clever

  • This is the first time I am listening to Cynthia talk. She seems like a lovely lady.

  • Cynthia may blame drugs for the failed marriage, but I believe John was looking for a relationship more equal as an artist. I'm certainly no fan of Yoko.-she has proven to be a liar. I believe Julian 100%. Yoko has been horrible to him.

  • @TheDorr71

    sorry lol, i know your comment was made months ago on Cynthia's interview, but I was curious to know how Yoko was a liar. It make me sad to know Julian had to buy back the letters from Yoko that was rightfully his in the first place. :( why was Yoko so hostile against Julian? But recently the two families get along?

  • @Foreverapunkfan Yoko resented Julian(I think) because Julian was part of Cynthia.

    I see other posts saying how prettier one wife was over another,or girlfriend.Are we still that shallow in our thinking? Who CARES? As Judge Judy says,"Beauty fades,dumb is forever.."

    Julian,Sean,Cynthia,and Yoko met recently,to celebrate Julians

    photography.It looked strained,although Julian has learned to let it go.Good for him-he's got class.

  • @VeeVeeNorCalBabe

    lol i always thought the comments about which one was prettier was kinda stupid.

    random question: are you from Nor cal because I am

    I can't imagine what kind of childhood he must have had. Julian and John. Julian does have a lot of class.

  • I think fondly of her, but she needs to move on. Shes' written both a paperback and a hard cover book on John. I know her love was deep, but after four failed marriages, and her constant interviews, she seems troubled emotionally. Very gracious woman, but needs to empower herself, not just as the former Mrs. Lennon. I love Julian,too.

  • Cyn was such a beautiful and fragile woman.I read her book and I learned a lot about her and John and Jules.John being a hard candy with a soft center and her being a pushover and a soft person.

  • Cynthia Lennon is so much hotter then Yoko, Yoko was butt ugly.

  • A very graceful and loving lady. Yoko Ono is a bitch a home destroyer

  • sweaty hands

  • she no where she stands

  • i wonder if she gets sad when people call her Cynthia Lennon...

    she is such a kind person and i loke john and cynthia more then john and yoko, i think he should have stayed with her.

  • @xoxonceuponatimexox No,that's her legal name. She changed it back.

  • Cnythia is such an amazing woman,shes so sweet and gentle and jullian is just the same,john was so lucky to have been with her. :)

    (R.I.P john)

  • I like her. . .she is such a graceful woman. Her book "John" is fascinating, I read it once it now gives me the knowledge of what really happened between her and John. . .sure she loved him but the drugs and his fame were already killing him slowly. I know it must have been hard to divorce the man, but she knew it was the only way to solve their problems. And now, she is still graceful and raised Julian wonderful. And that is why I look up to her as a role model.

  • is there a reason Wogan has a job ? out of all the things to ask .....not one interesting question ..

  • this wogan guy is the worst, inept interviewer ever!

  • To understand why Lennon fell for Yoko, you have to understand the relationship of Stuart Sutcliffe & Astrid Kircher which, for John, constituted an ideal love. Stuart & Astrid were a pair of avante-garde artists who became soul mates. While Cynthia may have thought of herself as an artist, she wasn't in the same league with Astrid or Yoko. Just as Stuart abandoned The Beatles for life & love with Astrid, so John would attempt to duplicate him. But did he succeed?

  • I have no idea how John went from this lovely woman to yoko, big difference! Anyway John was happy with both ladies.

  • I love Cynthia Lennon, I love her, I think she looks like a really kind woman, so much better than yoko.

  • She is so beautiful and gracious.

  • Gosh shes like Linda MCCartney a literal angel.

  • Yoko should of never broke them up! Homewrecking bitch! He will see cynthia when she passes I know this!

  • What does she do as an artist?

  • Cynthia is beatiful

  • Yoko looks like a dog gone wrong.

  • She had it alittle tough. She brought up Julian on her own. John was not in the picture and he didnt give much. Its known!!! Cut the women some slack!!!! Fuck off!!!

  • the interviewer seems to wipe something icky on Cyn's hand ... check how she looks at her hand around 1:16. YUCK ! ! !
