Paul Ritter's acting as head chef was so amazing.It'll forever haunt me.

Currently consuming as much Paul Ritter as possible. Recently finished a rewatch of Chernobyl and the entire Friday Night Dinner series and I am heartbroken at his passing. 54 is no age at all. Rest in peace, Paul. You will be missed. Thoughts with his wife and sons.

Paul Ritter is so nice in this interview but the character he plays is so hateful.

Decent interview...not great...not terrible...

Paul ritter is a great actor

host reminds me of jim carreys character in dumb and dumber

Lyudmilas portrayal by this actress was astonishing. The part were her husband was being buried just ripped my heart and found myself in uncontrollable tears coming out of my eyes. It shook me and took me a week to recover. She was so good portraying that pain I just wanted to jump into the screen and hug her

I rate this interview 3.6 out of 15 000 not great not terrible

I think the questions are fine, the problem is the host doesn’t have any interaction with the guests. Instead of follow up on their answers, he keeps on shooting new questions at them.

RIP Paul Ritter. His role as Dyatlov in Chernobyl was truly a masterpiece!

The casts understanding and empathy for the subject matter is second to none, the interviewer not so much.

Jessie’s acting was so heartbreakingly convincing. I felt really bad for Lyudmilla because she watched her husband die in agony, while going through a miscarriage later. I sympathize with her situation. Apparently, she disliked that she was portrayed, but I hope she can see in some small way that her story brought out the unseen human innocence of the Chernobyl horrors.

I scrolled through the comments right after I started watching this and having seen everyone saying the host is weak, my expectations were low. But man... the host is even worse than those low expectations.

R.I.P Paul Ritter

What a wonderful actors and personalities. Therefore, they succeeded in their roles. Greetings from Ukraine.

Dyatlov when he walks into control room at the power plant: *heLLo bAmBiNoS*

Jessie Buckley is a phenomenal performer

Paul Ritter was AMAZING. So was Jared, so was Emily so was Jessie.

rest in peace paul ritter 💕 an amazing actor and a national treasure, we’ll miss you bambino

She wasnt a lone female voice amongst men who knew better. Her character didn't exist, she represented many nuclear scientists, men and women, who were being ignored and silenced by the state.

RIP Paul Ritter 😭

Is the host on work experience?

I haven't had the chance to experience much of Paul Ritter's work so you can say I saw him in Chernobyl for the first time. And after the role, although he's a cool guy, I seem to fear him kind of. He played it so gracefully that it embedded him as that character in my mind. Amazing actor!

The host butchered the pronunciation of names, did not even try to attempt to be accurate, it put me off and seemed pretty disrespectful. Questions were mostly shallow and selected to tickle itchy ears about controversial matters, I believe it made the actors uncomfortable and especially Emily Watson, despite this they handled it professionally and gave great answers that were very insightful.

The fact that I hate to see Paul Ritter even here speaks volumes of his acting skills in Chernobyl.. Awesome actor !!!

Incompetent host. Drags the entire interview down. Jumping from question to question without so much as a bat of eye is in incredibly poor taste when faced with the scale of the series. Just awful. I feel bad for the actors. On another note, Paul Ritter seems like a very nice gentleman. Brilliant how some actors can turn into polar opposites of themselves.

I suprised how americans and english actors understand and feel whats happened in that year in USSR. Totally understand situation. Thank you for creating this beautiful movie.

This host is just dreadful. Such a poorly conducted interview. On a positive note, Paul Ritter is fabulous. Articulate and respectful. A wonderful actor.

Paul Ritter is amazing in this mini-series but I keep seeing him as Martin from Friday Night Dinner.

I bet that presenter thought Cher Nobyl was an X factor contestant.

The host was hired because Ali G was too expensive

All of them need to be nominated for an Emmy. Please.

Wow Paul Ritter seems so so lovely irl when he plays such a complete arsehole in Chernobyl...clearly he's a great actor. Then again they all are, absolutely amazing performances!

Jared Harris does another excellent role of a man who really existed. The same with his amazing performance as Captain Francis Crozier in The Terror.

This series has quite a serious subject matter and yet the video has all this glammed up music and not very respectful host.

Could have been a great interview but missed opportunity . I felt awkward for them.

The host isn't good enough

1 month ago they had no idea the series would became so popular and nr1 on IMDB

"Comrade actor.. you're done" But interviewer has 3.6 IQ, not great, not terrible.

The host needs to be fired

I am fond of Paul Ritter's work. Dyatlov looks like a tricky devil. Of course he is not alone responsible for disaster.

What a talented people! Thank you for such a great movie! We all should remember about that disaster! Greetings from Ukraine!

me from 2021 say sadly the paul ritter passed away on age of 54

Paul Ritter is one of my favourite actors. So versatile.

When the actors started explaining the circumstances of the security test, I had the impression that they were still somehow playing their Chernobyl characters.Especially Jared.

Well done guys, amazing job this entire project has been for everyone involved! 👏

best series I've ever seen. shocking to think of the accuracy of the series to the real life events. there are so so many things to say about it as well.

bless jared, he tries his best to ease the awkwardness lmao. what a terrible host.

Thank you all! You did great job!

RIP Simon, AKA Paul

Four exceptional actors......I’d hate to pick anyone out as to not to down play any of the others. Brilliant all of them...

I adore Paul Ritter.

They all made such a great performance in this series. Extremely impressive.

These may be the four best actors I've ever seen on screen at the same time

That host is very rude not standing up to shake hands when the guests join him!

An amazing program... done so very well

Jared Harris is the best of this mini series

I came for the interview but stayed for the comments 😂

This video hits different without Paul Ritter here

Dreadful interviewer, 'low level drug dealer chic' is not working at all, have some self-respect and some for your subjects and audience too.

Jessie's great. She such a seriousness to her facial expression which completely flips the other way around with even the slightest glimpse of a smile.

All 4 of these actors have such an amazing ability to communicate deep emotions by merely using their eyes alone. You can't teach that in acting school even though it's attempted I'd reckon. I ugly cried when Jessie hugged her husband after finally realizing he was about to die. She is such an amazing actor, she was the best thing about Fargo season 4. Emily Watson too just has a way about her that's so genuine in her eyes. RIP Ritter, he nailed his role and Harris I already knew had the chops via The Crown.

Jessie Buckley reminds me of Alice Eve 😍

That couch looks uncomfortable

I recommend that you guys look up the experience of the wife of Anatoly Sitnikov, she basically went through what Vasilys wife did in the show, but her story is bittersweet and real

Strange interview, he's not interacting with the guests, theres little to no conversation and when there is some interesting communication between them, he interrupts to ask another question, asking them one by one. Reminds me of a teacher asking each student in the class answers to their homework questions.

Yeah Chernobyl was bad but the real disaster here is that host's haircut good God

What an utter clown to review the stellar stars of such a great series

1:42 I truly hate the fact that they skip playing the trailer for the KZfaq viewer. This Copyright poop makes no sense to me. It is just a trailer!!

Redhead Jessie Buckley who played the curly-haired Lyudmilla, pregnant wife of a doomed firefighter, is from Killarney (Ireland) where actor Michael Fassbender was raised. She’s also a world-class singer and a favorite of composer Andrew Lloyd Webber. Jared Harris (extreme right) is the son of late Irish actor Richard Harris who played Albus Dumbledore in the Harry Potter films.

TFW Paul Ritter played his character so well you look at him and immediately feel anger 😂

I just LOVE Jessie Buckley so much!

Where's Scherbina?

The interviewer (who dress like a gym-trainer) seem to think that this is a job interview for the cast, and the utter stiffness of it all is awkward.

I remember the day of the explosion one Brit TV announcer said with a grin- "Now it's time to go over to the weather forecast as I'm sure we'd like to know which way the winds blowing"..:)

The interviewer has not seen Chernobyl. Bad questions. By the way,Who is his hairdresser? Terrible host

Emily Watson trying not to laugh at the first (CGI) question to Paul Ritter.

Fantastic series and acting

I think there’s graphite on the floor of the studio.

I just realized how awkward it sounds when you hear a host say "Chernobyl everybody!" and then a round of studio applause lol

Jessie 🖤

I rate the host 3.6 out of 15,000 - not great, not terrible.

Doesn't matter what the host says, his shiny eyes are saying to us:"Lets have a fun girls!!!" 4 glasses of contaminated water on the table - nobody touched it.

I hate the way he asks question, like an intimidating teacher.

They should invite the real Lyiudmila Ignatenko to one of these talk-shows to give her an opportunity to tell the real story and experience she endured during the hard times she faced

the best thing is that chernobyl was filmed in the country where i live in Ignaline, Lithuania ;)

Its scary seeing Martin being normal

I just love Paul Ritter so much

I was like: wtf is this jerk doing with them (Dyatlov). Then I realised Paul played his role really well. Lol

6:07 dyatlov is not happy 😂

''to put the lid back on'' i see what you did there

I don't like the interviewer host.

The first thing I thought of when I saw Jared Harris in this show is "hey its that guy from Resident Evil 2 movie"

5:12 why are they all leaning to the side lol

Wow some really probing questions in this interview

Jessie Buckley is gorgeous. Thought I'd say something nice since all the other comments got the interviewer covered lol

Paul Ritter, what an actor.

When Dyatlow calls you charismatic, that's definitely great.

Interviewer, you’re done

The interviewer seems more like he's conducting a quiz.
