He will always, always remain John Thornton in my mind :)

Richard was great as Mr. Thornton in North and South. I read the book and cannot separate the two.

Anybody else think that Richard Armitage would make an awesome Batman? He's got the looks, the voice, and the acting chops for it.

Now that RA is famous all over the globe all sorts of muck will be thrown at him as well. A lot of people just can't digest that a popular and good- looking actor can also be a sincere and gracious person. I hope he will be able to keep all his sweetness and sanity intact.

So so breathtakingly hot - loved him since North and South

Richard Armitage also stars in "Robin Hood"

Ричард в своих ролях страстный и с огненным взглядом, всегда убедительный. Необычайно привлекательный и притягательный. В нём столько внутренней энергии и мужской силы. Очень талантливый актер. Сценарии надо писать специально под него.

i have a big crush on richard and im only 17 lol! he should be way more famous!

He is divineeeeeee...what a specimen!

I love Richard Armitage. I wish he was on TV in the USA! I should have been born in England! :)

Oh my, when I look at Rich Armitage it's like Homer Simpson looking at a doughnut!! He is so yumm!!

Oh Richard. I love you in the serious stuff, in a comedy, in period clothes, in normal clothes, in uniform, with or without your shirt. Thank you HeathDances.

cada vez está mejor richard, y yo tan lejos. ADORABLE.

Is it wrong for me to like a guy who is like 30 years older than me? He's just so amazing, I love how he has no idea what his fans fantasise about... He should read these comments! His reaction... Priceless

I just realized I had a big silly smile on my face as I watched this LOL...

The person who pressed dislike must either be mad not to love Mr Thornton, or is incredibly jealous of him. Either way, mad. I can't help but stare at his face the whole time; is that just me?

I see this and I want more of this guy. Absolutely magnetic. Has anyone heard anything else he may be doing besides Spooks? How can we support his plan to play Richard III?

Thank you so much for uploading this. He looks wonderful! I hope someone can upload Strike Back otherwise those of us in the US probably won't get to see it.

Oh my gosh, he's just amazing. Loved "Strike Back"!

He should have such hair cut ALWAYS !!! And such blue background - suited so much !

the interviewer is as excited as I would have been. can you imagine actually meeting this fellow? I mean, I feel like a baked potato would feel next to filet mignon.

Thanks so much for uploading this interview! So nice to see him as himself again!

he's so fucking gorgeous...

Even i agree dat RA will make a perfact james bond if he can ever have that role....want 2 c him more n more on screen...i dont know y he is not coming into more movies

Absolutly brilliant thank you posting! ♥

I am also looking forward to the upload. Hopefully we will get here on BBC Canada, TVO or PBS. If I am being truthful then I have to say the fact that RA is in it I am already hooked. YYYYUUUMMM!!!

I just watched the entire thing and realised i didnt listen to a thing he said, just his voice ♥ and well, his face ♥♥

He's 6' 2.5" according to himself in a comic con interview. Yum. He's just fantastic to watch, and I swear he could read the dictionary and sound sexy.

I really dont know how to translate this to english so I will just go: Qué fuerte que está este flaco por Dios!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder WHY THE BLOODY HELL IS A GUY LIKE HIM NOT MARRIED?

Its always a pleasure to watch to AR, he looks and sounds delicious, as always. I remember watching this on the tv and being late work cus i stayed to watch it all. Let me tell that it was defiently worth being late to work. Thanks for sharing it, dear.

I could listen to him reading the phone book at infinitum.....!

@fizzytizzy His hand is so lucky!!

i like Richard Armitage very much and i think he could be a great James Bond !

DOn;t worry come this year his resume gets even better.Everyone in 2012 dec will remnember him as Thorin Oakenshield.

The most beautiful manly voice in all United Kindom ever.

Thank you so much for uploading this!!!!

Thanks for posting! Can't wait to see Spooks!

You're so sweet to upload the interview!

he is so cute, intelligent, and funny. Has anyone read his interview in the mirror mag? His ideal woman? hahaha!!! makes me more in love w/ him everyday. :)

JUST WONDERFUL!

I can't believe I missed this interview!!! I usually catch GMTV!! Thank the Lord for KZfaq! And thank him for Richard, of course! ^_^

Thank you for posting. I am so looking forward for the release date of the Strike Back DVD.

O_o honestly, I thought literally drooling at a guy was just so over the top; "I have never been so wrong, in all my life."

oh my word cant wait to see strike back! thanks so so so much for posting this!

thankyou for uploading this!!

Thanks for uploading!!!! You're a gem, Heather! OMG he looks GORGEOUS!!!! *thud*

Thank's so much for posting this...wonderful! It's much appreciated:)

Thank you for posting this!!

OMG. He uses 'epic' as a term for 'brilliant'! SO DO I!

ooo how I love this man

Amazing, as always, and so good in interviews. He's so polite and funny. But did anyone else blush and laugh a bit when he grabbed his crotch/fiddled with his pants? [in the behind the scenes bit on the set of Spooks]

OMG! he is just perfection! he has an amazing body, face and what accent! I will marry this man like...right now!

thank you for sharing this interview !! it's good to know what are his news

@240585birthday absolutely agree!!! I was also thinking umm duh North and South!!!

Safe to say that most Spooks fans were in shock as well after series 9. ;-) I hated the character of Lucas North, but Richard Armitage seems such a well-spoken, kind bloke (not to mention handsome!)

In one Interview he said, that black suits him best

@lolxox12 I'm quite excited for the Hobbit, and finally he's getting recognition for his talents! Will be sad for him leaving Strike Back and Spooks, but I guess life goes on.

B-e-a-utiful! :)

I just love that everytime Richard is on GMTV, Lorraine brings up TVOD.

What a man😘❤️🇨🇴

Love himmmm❤❤❤❤❤

"I went WHAT?" hah he is sooo cute

Thanks, HeathDances. He's lovely, as usual.

Such man can not exist ! I think it's just an apparent for the media image ! He is too much ! Who is RA in the reel life :)) But ... "in vain I have struggled, it will not do" and I am fascinated by RA :)) Mr Right of XXI !

Adorable beautiful man!

ooooh...can't wait till spooks series 9 airs

Thanks for posting Heather! He's looking very dishy ;)

I bought this series, and have it on e-bay. I downloaded, and have the original available.

It has been announced. Rhichard Armitage will play the dwarven king "Thorin Oakenshield" in the upcoming movie "The Hobbit"

I love how he sits like he feels so comfortable & at ease & I love his eyes. They way he stares at you like he's actually paying attention to you. I would love to see him on graham norton show. lol! that ought to be a riot.

He is one GORGEOUS "6'2" bloke"! Sigh...:)

Agree but he was the reason for watching!

@Janeite1 Yes, and she sounds like she's from Glasgow or around Glasgow. The girl who played Cho Chang in the Harry Potter films is from around there and has a very similar accent.

@MerryMeredithP I know. you just don't see guys like him anymore. so rare.

I really don't get the Hugh Jackman physical comparisons. They only have a passing resemblance. Richard has more chiseled features - defined brow ridges, stronger chin and jawline and that nose, of course. Their eyes are very different, too. HJ is a good actor and a nice guy but to me he's just not as attractive as Richard.

@ThrillJunky500 True, but he was done with the Robin Hood series when he did this interview.

@Janeite1 Yes, that is definitely a Scottish accent. It sounds like she is from around Glasgow, definitely somewhere in Southern Scotland, but I cant tell you exactly where.

Yeah... Lorraine is from dundee,am also scottish but from glasgow so i understand her accent must say richard is so handsome ; )

Thud!!! Thank you for posting :)

Thanks so much for sharing this! And he certainly looked mighty fine, haha! And was he saying there's major twists for Lucas coming up? Oh dear! I don't know if that bodes well at all, haha! Hopefully that doesn't mean he's about to die this season!

OMG!!!

Thank you very much heathra. You always do such amazing videos that I have saved to my favourites and if it wasn't for you than I wouldn't have got to see this interview with RA, What is it with him and his self-image though? A "gangly 6'2" guy?" You're not gangly at all RA. You're fine as you are.

PERFECTION PERSONIFIED! =) sigh

Thank you for posting this- always awesome to know where this awesome actor is heading =)

el esta muy buenooo

Lol! no, you were not the only one, I did too, I was like "did he just do what I think he did?" Now I know the answer hahaha

Nice!

Well HERE COMES THE HOBBIT! PLAYING THORIN OAKENSHIELD HE IS GONNA BE AWESOME!!! HE'S GONNA BE SUCH A HOT DWARF!

@lolxox12 word on the street is that a source from Sky says that he will be leaving Strike Back's second series because of his filming for the Hobbit.

@toriodonnell94 damn he was the new James Bond I would be running to the theatres!!

3:55 An itch? Or perhaps pants a bit tight? Oh he is beautiful =D Cannot wait for Spooks :) And theatre?!? YAY!

hi heathdances thanks for this video. at least i saw my richard again in a new video .i haven't watch much of him lately coz i can't find any new ones especially the strikeback episodes..oh how humble he really is when he said that before he is doing the plumbing and sanding floors.how lucky those pipes and floors are ha ha .oh i'm so crazy about richard.thanks again.( those plumbing and sanding floors i knew it from twitter)

He looks in his best shape ever. Just when you think he couldn't be any fitter...gor blimey. Lorraine nearly grabbed his knee at one point - her hand was creeping closer!

.... Richard Armitage 39 years old?????? .....NYYYYYYAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

SWOON** He's so hottt :) I can't help but smile the whole time I was watching this video! :D

@ridzz He actually talks about wearing mostly black in an interview for Robin Hood. It was kinda cute.

@83RockaRolla I never thought of it...but yeah. Hell yeah!!

@xwonkeydonkeyx Please no spoilers for those who have not seen it!! Hellooooooo!

@Janeite1 I have the same problem. I'm Belgian and I understand most of the English and the American accents. But she's made me put the volume on maximum just so I would be able to understand her.
