Transcript
00:00The dance it's a how lovely and welcome along. Thank you very much for being here. Lovely to see you all. Yeah
00:07Cheers
00:11Yeah, if you're wondering tequila
00:16Now some of you know James I've got to ask are you alright because you injured yourself are you alright because you don't know anything?
00:26I know you
00:28Yeah, and you've met the other packs. We had a lovely time. We've got the tequila and other things. Yeah
00:34Just a little short. I
00:37Am fine. I was this is the thing that's all now King and Conqueror which on PPC one on Sunday nights. Yes. I fell off the horse
00:45Yeah, I fell off was my broke my collarbone now
00:48And I said now I was thinking oh that must be terrible to fall off a horse quite a distance
00:52And then I saw a picture of you with the horse and you are taller than yes
00:56I
00:58I
00:59Only a pony
01:01Okay, yeah, yeah, so Iceland have a protective order on their horses
01:05You cannot import a horse because they have this kind of gene pool and it doesn't it can't be polluted
01:08And so we we having committed to shoot the whole thing and I said and I was a producer on the show as well
01:13So I we were tasked with finding the biggest Icelandic ponies we could find and they were that was the biggest we could find
01:19Even though it was it was that small. I still broke my collarbone from falling from that great height. So yeah
01:24When did it happen?
01:26It happened at the very beginning of all the stunt sequences. That's fun. Yeah starts though
01:30If you have one of those scenes where you might get injured, it's a good thing to schedule those at the end of the show
01:35Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:40Yeah, well producers producers will do that
01:43But also looking at that I'm thinking Dwayne never do an historical epic in Iceland because that pony would not survive
02:00Does a regular horse make a noise when you get on it
02:03Like does it go
02:05Oh
02:07Yeah, why?
02:08Because there's a lot of muscle mass there
02:10I mean that
02:12A horse would be going, oh, Jesus, look at this
02:14Oh my god
02:16Many things groan when I get on it
02:23Okay, Graham
02:25I'm writing that down
02:27Thank you
02:29All right
02:31Let's get on with our first film tonight
02:33Dwayne and Emily are together in The Smashing Machine
02:37It's in cinemas from the 3rd of October and here's just a little taste of what to expect
02:43It's so good
02:43Thank you, man
02:45Thank you, thank you
02:49It is phenomenal
02:50It's a true story
02:51Mark Kerr, he was sort of the first star to come out of the MMA UFC world
02:56He was yeah for a lot of you who don't know him and a lot of people don't know him
02:59Mark Kerr was the first he was one of the pioneers of there he is right there of MMA
03:04And he was at one time he was the greatest fighter on the planet heavyweight fighter
03:10And at that time there were no rules no regulations
03:13And then it was different and there was no infrastructure around it
03:17There was no financial planning
03:19There was just fighters and
03:22Mark fought his way to the top and he
03:25And he struggled and he struggled like a lot of fighters do unfortunately though
03:29He struggled under pressure and the pressure in many ways got to him
03:33There was addiction involved and he wound up overdosing twice and he's lucky to be alive
03:37But he's here today and not here in the audience, but he is alive
03:41Ladies and gentlemen, Mark Kerr
03:43But he is with us today and he had this unbelievable life and he had this
03:48volcanic relationship with his
03:51Girlfriend who eventually became his wife and they have a beautiful son named bryce
03:54So it was it was really the role of a lifetime and so emily tell us about dawn
03:59Yeah, I mean she's an extraordinary person, you know, and I I found her when I spoke to her sort of simultaneously
04:06Heartbreaking and fierce and I think it is a very complex
04:13relationship to be in when you're
04:16With a very dedicated athlete whose life is on the line constantly through his own addiction through actually being in the ring
04:24And they did have this rather hazardous
04:26relationship, but I think the movie is less about
04:31You know, it's set to the backdrop of this 90s machismo
04:34But it's so about vulnerability and the brokenness and like how you never really know what's going on in someone's life
04:39You know and the image of invincibility is not really the truth, you know
04:43And we've got to talk about the venice film festival because you took actual mark kerrer with you
04:48So, I mean obviously emotional to watch it but to watch it with him
04:52There he is watch it watch it with him must that was the first time he'd seen it, right?
04:56It was the first time he had seen it with an audience
04:58So we get to the venice film festival which were there for competition and we're sitting there and watching it
05:03I sat next to mark mark's a big guy and I could feel him and he's shaking
05:09He's shaking the entire movie especially the fight scenes with him and his girlfriend who eventually became his wife dawn
05:14He's shaking every once in a while. I reach over and grab his knee and
05:18Towards the end of the movie where we have the big scene. Yeah, that Emily and I don't ruin it. I won't ruin it. No
05:29So anyway, you'll never
05:32And then he is really shaking and crying and then I look over and Benny Safdie's holding his hand and
05:39you know in venice film festival, it's very ceremonial right is as we know and it means a lot films mean a lot to people in
05:48Venice and at the venice film festival and before the credits came up
05:54The audience erupts and they give us a 15 and a half minute standing ovation and mark kerr
06:02is
06:03Sobbing which makes us all cry yeah benny as well and it was just
06:07Beautiful, we've got a little bit of footage of the the ovation and I say it goes. I mean it's
06:15By the way, yes, let's wait till this is over so I could embarrass you because I know no look at your face
06:21Yes, and mark mark kerr's beside me. That's more
06:25So there I am right. I'm
06:27Very emotional house lights come on before they're expected. I'm crying and I'm trying to wipe my tears away
06:34To try and still stay cool and this one is like can you believe that we did that thing whatever the
06:39fucking joke was that she said
06:41Hey, what are you talking about?
06:42You can see in the clip that he's crying and I went do you remember on jungle cruise when you said you never cried?
06:51I'm in a moment
06:51It's like the british thing right where this thing like where it's like it's a long time for people to be clapping and I started to get embarrassed
07:00Yeah, so I started making jokes because I was like oh god this is so much
07:04Yes, it's to remain kind of humble and grateful
07:13You know just watching the trailer there, you know that idea of dwayne johnson
07:18Disappearing into any role you kind of think oh, how can you transform but you do?
07:22What what and it's and it's not just the physical thing because it's obviously this hair but other things went on it was
07:28uh about 22 prosthetics we had kazoo heroes or oscar-winning prosthetic
07:34Artist and he helped me transform there was also a vocal transformation too, but
07:38the idea I think of transforming for me
07:41was something that you know, I didn't know that I was
07:45I didn't know that that was for me and I wanted to do that because a lot of times in the movies that I've made in the past
07:51The bigger movies are big and they're fun and I've liked them from jumanji to moana
07:56um
07:57And I'll go back to those but there was something about this opportunity where
08:01There was a little there was a voice behind my ribcage that was just telling me right so like like
08:08And I'd share this with emily for years like it's just it's
08:11Gnawing at my gut to do more and challenge myself and grow and do something
08:17Where i'm not chasing box office, but i'm doing it for me yeah, and it wound up being the
08:23Most greatest most gratifying thing and and and and i've said this before and I mean it
08:28Smashing machine changed my life
08:30Well, you so pulled it off you really it really is phenomenal and and matthew i'm interested because
08:36You had a kind of similar career pivot to the yeah
08:39What's wayne's doing now where you had this incredibly successful career with with rom-coms and you went no
08:44I'm going to search out different sorts of parts more meaningful parts
08:47How hard was it to turn your back on that?
08:50So
08:51Successful career similar to what duane said i had that 4 a.m in my solitude on my own
08:56truth that hit me
08:58It lands like a butterfly and strikes like a lightning bolt at the same time that truth that you go
09:02Okay tomorrow when the sun comes up and i'm back in the masses and all the world's coming at me and all those offers
09:07I need to remember this truth now
09:09I've been trying to get dramas and was even offering huge pay cuts and they're like no stay in your lane mcconaughey
09:14You're the rom-com guy you got that down mind you i enjoyed him
09:17But i was wanting to do something different because i couldn't do what i wanted to do
09:20I said i got to stop doing what i'm doing so i said no more
09:23No more rom-coms uh called the agent
09:26Said let the town know it's not gonna happen i went to texas camilla's pregnant on the ranch quiet down there
09:31Camilla says to me look you don't know how long it's gonna be dry how long you're gonna not go with work
09:35This could go on but this is non-negotiable we're not going back i was like not going back
09:40Now a year goes by
09:43Nothing nothing nothing i call my agent goes matthew i haven't even heard your name in six months
09:48I'm going okay i may have just wrote myself a one-way ticket out of hollywood
09:51I start to think about other vocations school teacher uh wildlife guide maybe i'll go back to law school all right
09:5818 months go by
09:59I really think i've done it i'm out um i get this this romantic action comedy it comes with an eight million dollar offer
10:08I read it i pass i say no thank you it comes back with a 10 million dollar offer i said no thank you
10:13Comes back with a 12 million dollar offer i said no thank you it comes back with a 14.5 million dollar offer
10:18i said let me read that thing
10:20Yay same words as dame and i'll offer but it was better
10:26It was funnier i could see myself and this could work right
10:30But i ultimately said no
10:32That must be so hard to say no
10:34It was but it's saying no to it
10:37I think sent a little invisible message to hollywood oh mcconnell is not bluffing we're talking about not flinching
10:43Yes
10:44Oh he's playing offense he's not just doing nothing he's playing on he's he's he's on to something and
10:5120 months two months after i turned that down the offers came in that i was looking for and they came in in droves
10:58It went killer joe mud the true detective dallas buyers magic mike
11:02They they came in everything i was looking for and i would not have they would not have come in if i wouldn't have
11:07Unbranded for that 20 months all right now dwayne you didn't have to unbrand you had enough steam going
11:13i can make whatever choice i want and i'm going to make this happen over here
11:17It was a time for me where i had to unbrand and it took 20 months
11:20But then i was doing and all of a sudden my work was challenging the vitality i like
11:24I was like there we go
11:25Yeah
11:26So cool
11:27I know yeah absolutely
11:32And there's one thing that every actor who wants to be successful but then you don't want to be typecast
11:36And james you know you were so good as tommy royce in happy valley you at that kind of psychotic
11:49Like
11:51Were you just offered lots of psycho villains after that or or yeah
11:58I seem to get offered roles where they present as nice and kind of civil and then underneath they have a heart of stone
12:04And i don't know what that says about me but um yeah i mean i i i haven't i haven't had to rebrand
12:09Which is lovely i've you know been lucky i've been able to kind of twist and turns and i think
12:13That's the way you keep learning and keep it fresh that's what every actor wants um and
12:18Yeah i mean the villains are also really interesting like the one i'm playing right now is a is a beast
12:23Yes
12:23So you know i get to i get to play and yeah i but i i have to say i've cited you as someone
12:28Who has done it and you know now you as well dwayne like someone who's done it
12:32So elegantly you you managed to go against the grain because the producers they want their job to be done
12:36Easily you know you you don't want your actor to have to go on these massive transformative journeys because
12:40It costs money and you have to get dialect coaches and everything else you want the actor to walk in as the character
12:44And actually what we want to do is go on those journeys which you guys have just described so beautifully
12:48So yeah it's um it's a it's a tough kind of struggle
12:52Talking of returning to our role we've seen a lot of paparazzi pictures of miss emily blunt recently
12:58Because you are you still filming the devil wears parada too
13:06It must be lovely to be making something that people are so happy about they are so excited about it it is incredibly sweet
13:13I mean we're trying to keep as much of it under wraps as we can but
13:16It's not just the paparazzi that it's the fans outside i've never experienced this where it's just thousands of people waiting outside the sets
13:23And i think when we made the first one like we thought it was funny we were like it's really funny and then
13:29It comes out and i was a kid you know when it came out and it's 20 years ago and i remember my agent calling me going
13:36You know this this is the opening weekend i was like is that good like i didn't know
13:40What what was success was and and so it had this meteoric life and it's it's amazing to come back to it
13:48And because to make the second one obviously they needed the four of you you standing and merrill
13:52So did the four of you have a lot of say in what the story was going to be or we did
13:57i mean i think they were very collaborative on it and you know they wanted everyone to be
14:01Happy they wanted us in cahoots with them so it was it was really really cool
14:06Well we look forward to that uh but before then do i urge you go see emily and dwayne give
14:11Extraordinary performances in the smashing machine in cinemas from october the 3rd
14:16Very good thank you
14:18Good day thank you
14:20Okay
14:22Next up matthew mcconaughey he brings us the latest offering from director paul greengrass it's called the lost bus and it's out now in selected
14:32Cinemas then on apple tv plus from the 3rd of october before we talk about it here's some of the trail
14:44And again this is another extraordinary true story yeah these awful awful california wildfires in 2018
14:52And this kind of reluctant hero uh tell us about uh adam mckay
14:56Kevin mckay kevin mckay sorry in our story he's come home uh because his father died and he's there to
15:03Take care of his widowed mother and reconcile our relationship with his son from a earlier divorce in
15:08His life he's got a part-time job as a school bus driver on uh this particular day took the kids school
15:14Dropped him off was out and about and uh fires were coming across the canyon they did it happened all the
15:19Time no one even got alarmed they always the first responders head up there and put them out
15:23But on this day the winds came and the fires jumped the canyon so the first responders were stuck
15:29And while they were stuck
15:31They called it a mandatory evacuation out just out of the town of paradise
15:36When that happens kevin mckay has just made the decision i'm gonna go back and get my mom and my son who cannot drive
15:43I'm gonna save them evacuate them
15:45Not two minutes later it comes through dispatch i've got 23 kids stranded on the east side of town
15:52Does anyone on that side of town have an empty bus well guess who's got an empty bus
15:57Do you pick that up and say yes
16:01Or do you go get yeah your mom and your son
16:04He picked it up and he said i got him he picks him up there's a teacher with a mary lugwig who's played by america ferrera
16:11And this is the story about the next six seven eight hours of what happens
16:16Wow and you mentioned the personal side of the idea of being a dad and of course
16:20That's incredibly uh present in this film because it is a family affair
16:25Yes, it is check this out
16:30I go and pitch the script to my family as i always do here's what it's about you know and if it's too r-rated you got
16:36To kind of do it in a parable form
16:39Kids were old enough i told him straight with this one was about straight
16:42I get to the part about my son
16:45And my son levi who's 15 the time goes is that part cast yet i said no he goes
16:49You think i could read for it oh my god and i just kind of look at him huh
16:53Had he ever written have you ever read for anything before no
16:56So this surprises me but i i kind of just give him a shoulder and like yeah right
17:00He comes back next day the next day he badgers me four times okay all right first off sit down
17:05We're going to talk about what this acting gig is i said this ain't
17:08Modeling this ain't no attitude
17:12All right this is a freaking rodeo and you got to go with soul and no bullshit in your bone
17:17So he goes well i already got a scene worked out i want to shoot so i pulled out my camera shot
17:21And i was like first take i was like okay
17:23Kids got present he was able to behave honestly in front of the camera i was like that's for starters you need that
17:29Did two takes i sent to the casting director with a note saying
17:33i think this is good enough for a call back
17:35She writes back and says i think it's good enough to send to the director paul greengrass i said great
17:41And then it dawned on me wait a minute do me a favor can you pull his last name
17:46If he gets it is he going to have an inkling but the last name helped him oh i don't want that happening
17:52So she pulled the last name goes in his leave i paul sees it director looks like this is the kid
17:57She said well you know it's actually matthew's son in real life he goes even better
18:02And and then so it's lovely your son's in it your mom's in it
18:08Tell them who she plays tell them who she plays
18:10No she plays my mother
18:15There she is kate wakai 93 years young
18:17Oh my gosh she's gorgeous
18:18No but look at your son as well
18:24So what we're going through paul and i would get together every week and kind of just go over the last week
18:30How we doing are we missing anything is there anything we want to do anything special
18:33And the news was always good we were always happy with everything it was going but he said
18:37About four weeks in he goes i got one problem he goes i think i miscast the mother and i either misdirected it or we got to rewrite this scene
18:42Do you know you have any idea who could play your mother
18:46I said let me think about it next day he goes what about your mom
18:50They're making this family affair pause and hang on a second he goes let's just cast her i said hang on
18:55Hang on before we just cast her let me get her in front of you and i said mom
18:59Can you send me a minute video on your phone of why you love being a mom she sends me an eight minute video
19:06I show that to paul he's like yes
19:09That's her wait what was that conversation like when you told your mom
19:13She was already into like let me check with my agent which she doesn't have
19:21She was already like yeah well let me think about it
19:24Yeah
19:27This is all sounding very familiar to james norton because your dad has he been in every single thing you've done
19:35My dad has been in nearly everything i've ever done yeah
19:38I'm terrified of him watching this because i know i'm going to get a text saying why can't i play your dad
19:41I want to i want to you know i've got my notes ready
19:44He mostly does kind of supporting background work yeah yeah he does a day as an essay on everything
19:49I do so uh here he is in the house of guinness this is the your your current project there he is
19:55But we have found footage of him from war and peace this is it's over is it 10 years ago more than
20:01At least he flew himself out to lithuania to shoot this yeah he flies across the world
20:04I did i did wonder how the hell he ended up in lithuania to be in this so he flew himself he loves it yeah yeah
20:11He gets it he gets a free haircut he kind of struts around the set like a peacock gets you know
20:17You're not in this scene but keep an eye out uh i'll show you uh james out here
20:23I mean blink and you might miss him but uh here we go a warm peace it's all going very well
20:28Lovely very dramatic and look who's that in the mustache
20:33There you go did he did he keep the mustache yeah he loved it did he keep the mustache he didn't keep the mustache no
20:41It's a new one in house of guinness it's a new one in house of guinness yeah in house of guinness
20:44He had to throw a bottle at me and he's not the most coordinated and we it was in a stunt sequence
20:48And he had to throw the bottle multiple times but yeah no he loves it so when he comes out
20:52Is it specifically for one scene or does he just lurk around for many background scenes no no
20:57We make sure that he's only on for one scene i mean he would he would if he had the choice get an agent i mean i'm terrified
21:03But has he never asked for lines has he never asked for lines he had a line in one thing oh it's terrible he had a i'm sorry dad but
21:09He had a line in um in uh lady chatley's lover and i remember him it was um uh the director said
21:15Hugh let's give you a line and he improvised something about the state of the coal mine and he looks at me
21:21He goes what the fuck like how do i what is he doing and then it was i don't know about you but
21:25You obviously your son and your mom obviously clearly much more talented than my dad because he was terrible
21:30And i was standing there and i'm trying to stay in character and all i have is this man going the coal
21:34And uh dwayne your mom um she didn't act but she has now done some acting
21:49She has we actually so i followed in matthew's path and i put her in
21:54Caster in live-action moana so she's in that yeah does she have lines uh no thank god okay
22:01Okay you went you went the norton route no yes that's it but what i you've talked about her before
22:06But i love the idea of your mother she enjoys your fame very much she loves it she does my mom's had
22:12A tough life and and she so now she's living like oh she is she's just living her best life and she
22:18She does she she's my biggest fan and she has this crazy room
22:23That's called the smackdown room and in the smackdown uh it's just all me
22:29Yes everything that i mean every little thing
22:33Anything you can think of she just shoves it in there and then this one did your mom have something
22:37That's the same room it's not not of you but it's of all my stuff
22:42That would be weird
22:46So your mom is your biggest fan yes but she also and she is my biggest fan but she also was very clear to take credit
22:53For all of wow every role i've ever played
22:57Here's what she comes up after she like she goes man you did so good
23:02I'm gonna tell where you got it from
23:03Very proud but we that we're fine now my ship's stable enough where i'm like mom say whatever you want
23:11Whatever you want now that she's got a great agent she's good
23:15But also she she published a book yes can you remember what the name of the book was oh yes
23:20Because i'm she probably has already put a sticker of the title of the book on my truck
23:25It's called i amaze myself
23:29I feel like every book every book should be called i amaze myself
23:35Chapter 26 guess what the title is
23:38Some people deserve to be pissed on
23:48What is christmas like in your life
23:51It's wild is it novel
23:54No it's short short stories i mean some people it's probably helped out some people she's very much a
23:59Um she gets by on positive thinking and denial
24:05It works and she's 93 and not shallow and kicking ass so
24:09Talking of books i must say uh after the success of your memoir green lights you now have a new book uh poems and prayers
24:16Number one the new york times we already know that it's going to be in the bestseller list in sunday time
24:20Thank you thank you
24:25From what i read so a lot of the the material in here you've been working on off and on for years yes
24:32So this is something you've always done yeah i've been writing poetry since 18. yeah yeah
24:37And and i think you're going to do one for us maybe yeah i'd love to read one
24:42Your mum is here and she's here

24:49Ready to pee on somebody
24:50Well you got the book there oh you got the book there
24:51What this uh why i wrote it and why i put it out now um
24:55Seems to me belief is in short supply um
25:00Look around you turn the news you look around there not much to believe in
25:04Or reasons to believe and
25:07That's not going to work because if doubt wins we're all going to lose all right so this is me looking for belief
25:13Because i found my own self getting cynical i found my own self objectifying people
25:17And kind of thinking i guess that's just the way it is
25:20First that scared me secondly thankfully it pissed me off and i said no no no no i promise
25:25I've never become a cynic at the early death if you do that so
25:28I wrote this to dive into my own belief and i've also found a lot of people along the way going
25:33They feel kind of the same way they're looking for belief so poems and prayers instead of looking to reality and the evidence for belief
25:39Let's look at our dreams and our aspirations and see if we can bring those back down to earth and that's why i wrote this book
25:45Um there's a bunch in there why don't i read one that's kind of funny okay all right and not that long how about that okay all right it's called more time
25:52I think it was about 2 a.m
25:54The band played the last tune and i said amen went to pay my tab over at the bar when the main event started tuning their guitar
26:01So i ordered myself another bottle of wine god i love it when i got more time
26:07Thought it was the year 2010
26:10Not a worrying sight in the fast lane again
26:13Signed all my checks one year tardy because it was 09 and i hadn't left the party
26:19So happy my balance wasn't in the red god i love it when i'm early instead
26:24Met a woman i liked and she became my friend we turned into lovers and thought we'd make it until the end
26:29But as soon as we lined up hand in hand in the queue my eyes started turning a lighter shade of blue
26:37Well sometimes love just loses its shine and sometimes leaving early just gives you more time
26:43Meanwhile in another part of the forest james norton brings us a new epic historical drama house of guinness on netflix now and here's a taste delicious
27:05And here's the thing obviously the the guinness family who are kind of fighting for control of the brewery they're real
27:21Who do you play and are you kind of an actual historical figure uh
27:25So i'm not i'm made up the the story is a kind of the the father benjamin guinness is all true
27:30He died in the early 1860s um and he left his power vacu ments the kind of big dynasty show the four children then take over the the brewery
27:38i play there um fixer caretaker kind of the he runs the show he's the boss he's called sean rafferty and he's uh
27:46He's a badass yeah he really is a badass it's really fun yeah and it's by the same guy who wrote peaky blinders right it's stephen knight yeah and
27:54He is yeah yeah and he's firing on all cylinders he's he's in his element you can tell he had a lot of fun making it um
28:01Yeah it's a really it's a romp you know it's a it's an amazing period of history it's when
28:05This this brand guinness became this you know the biggest
28:09Realize how famous guinness was in the 1860s yeah it was global already well it was just this
28:14This story is the kind of the moment it exploded into north america
28:17Um and on the kind of coattails of the industrial revolution and and uh but it's sort of it's smoky and sexy and it's irreverent and
28:25You know it's it's we have many names the crown with beer
28:29Subsession it's been called uh
28:33Subsession i mean there's many people have coined it but yeah it's it's a lot of fun
28:35It's definitely a fun fun romp and when i watch something like this and you know you're in it
28:39And you're doing a really good dublin accent thank you when you said yes to it
28:44Did you just kind of think i'm sure i can do that accent or did you know you could do a dublin accent
28:48No i mean i was terrified you know the irish are very well you know they're very proud people
28:54Right they'll they'll tell you they will tell me they do they often do they already have you done press in ireland yet
28:59I have you got away terrifying honestly i sat on this couch with jamie dornan and he told us he got
29:05Crucified by a journalist for his irish accent yes and he's irish i was in that movie with him
29:10And we got destroyed yeah but he's irish i mean i know he's but he's from
29:15Belfast and they told him his irish accent was shit so
29:20I don't know what i don't know it was anyway but no i listen i the accent the accent was terrifying
29:24And i worked really hard at it because you know we've all we all know actors who didn't get it right
29:29And they do get held to account and did you have any kind of like were you given shortcuts into it
29:34Yes i did i had an amazing dialect coach called paul um musselides who basically
29:39Yeah he gave he gave me um i don't know if you've ever done this for an accent but he gave me kind of
29:44The vowels broken down into eight sounds and then these little poems actually funnily enough i could
29:49Follow i could follow with one of the poems but um they they were they were kind of ridiculous
29:53And i would listen to them and look kind of crazy walking around can you remember any of them
29:57I remember um uh like the sound i mean i'm going to butcher it and the irish people are going to
30:02Come no they're not they are um no i'm not on set it was a year and a half ago in my defense
30:07So like the sound like um wine light uh fine ireland was it was something like um uh the prime height
30:15For umpours in ireland is five foot nine i'm smiling now because of the fine white wine i'm drinking
30:20It makes me feel like i'm a lion flying over a toy
30:27You still got it you still got it that's one of that's cool yeah that's cool you meant that
30:32No there's an accent you like it's it's very scientific you break the accent down into these
30:37Have you ever done an accent matthew yes yeah tim monick is who i worked with who's done the same
30:42Things yeah yeah you give the little limericks and you just find the uh the actually the rhyme and
30:48And then the vowel sounds along the way and you start it sort of seeps in and uh james uh norton the
30:55This is a you know it's a big action uh series a big action role for you and you know and we've we've had
31:01Fighting we've had fires you bring us explosions now have you ever had to do walking away from an explosion
31:09Before so please we can get to talk about yeah so we have no you you have i know you have because
31:15There is a song so we were shooting this scene um in in liverpool and and my and sean rafferty
31:20My my role was made very easy because all i had to do was sort of strut and smoke cigarettes and look
31:25Kind of cool and so with one of these scenes i was walking away from an explosion and my business partner
31:29And my dear dear best friend she she texts me in the middle of this this uh scene she said have you seen
31:34Cool guys don't look back at explosions the lonely island guys have you seen it yeah the only sandberg which you were in
31:40It's a song and he's cut together it's so good it's cut together all the actors and actresses over the over
31:45The time in hollywood who have walked away from an explosion and not turned back you can't turn back you can't turn back
31:50But you are my inspiration oh yeah oh this is this is what actually in the series this is uh sean rafferty
31:56Walking it's so cool so the rules bernie are you don't look back that's a rule you don't look back yeah
32:02And i suppose the other thing would be you wouldn't look sort of pleased with yourself for walking away from an explosion oh no
32:07No don't don't don't look back don't don't look pleased yeah don't don't don't you just stone cold straight faces
32:12Don't go straight faces yeah like this is what i do kind of thing but by the way you're a producer make it happen
32:17Yeah i wasn't a producer on this but i didn't know what you're about yeah
32:21This is uh this is a slightly longer this is from behind the scenes of uh sean rafferty walking away from the explosion
32:28Oh so uh here he goes so there's the explosion not looking back oh he looked back at least he hasn't
32:35Looked pleased with himself at all
