  • what an omen... "666 views".

    All my idols are so old, like 40-50 years older than me.. In a way that really sucks, but in another that's what makes them my idols, isn't it. Bittersweet.

  • When I was 12/13 my idol were Cary Grant & Sean Connery, so, don't worry, it's a common desease ^^

  • I can't believe he didn't win an Emmy for Claudius. I Claudius nonetheless has a big following here in America. Don't want you Brits to think us yanks are a bunch of rubes.

  • I'm Italian, but glad to know you're not a bunch of rubes ^^ ...these days I feel like we are a bunch of idiots, here in Italy and Europe...but that's all another story :))

  • You're welcome! Thanks for your kind comments!

    He's really cute and his voice's always a thrill to me...and he's clever too...I love clever men!

  • This is the most well polished, humble, lovely acceptance speech. He's soooo cute!

  • I love Derek jacobi..... I remember watching this when I was young (probably too young but my mum thought it was so great) the actors in it were amazing, him, George Baker (who has just died) Brian blessed etc... amazing......

  • @Escul1960

    That, and Robert Donat's Academy Award for "Goodbye Mr. Chips."

  • Oh my GOD......that's Princess Anne giving out the award!!  :-O

  • One of the most well-deserved awards ever given for any acting performance.

  • @rosapurpurea I love Italians!

  • His acceptance speech is of a truly noble and civilised quality; with a modest, natural eloquence that is magnificent.

    

  • he is amazing in i claudius!

  • Classiest acceptance speech I've ever heard

  • @ravaldo11 Christoph Walz gave a beautiful acceptance speech for his role in Inglourious Basterds. Worth watching!
