How brave of someone as high profile as Michael to share his own personal experiences, without fear of judgement and not portray himself as a victim or ask for sympathy. He is so honest and genuine he knows where has been and doesn't hide it. How many of today's media even get close to this guy?

Married for 60 years, I am glad that they resolved their problems and Parky remains totally charming even in the other chair. God bless him and Mary Parkinson.

Very true John. My grandmother was a huge fan and couldn't wait to see the show being broadcast every Saturday night. He ended up getting that great nickname 'parky'. The best British TV interviewer ever to me. He carried out so much research on his guests beforehand which showed and, together with that, added a little humour too. His only interview which didn't work out was that one with Meg Ryan. She wasn't too helpful in answering the questions. Not an easy person to interview!

I really relate to this interview, thank you Sir Michael for being honest and authentic about your struggles with alcohol. This is almost a mirror of what happened in our house, with me - gently at first and then more assertively - pointing out the damage alcohol was doing and that it needed to go. We did it and we've never looked back. That's not to say it's easy, it's hard to change, there have been good weeks and bad weeks and it is exactly what Michael called it - a drug that happens to be legal.

UTUBE FROM UK.28.2.21. Parkinson ? Bergman. Now lets break this fantasy. he was heading Notts university prior to the firm Burberry. of Horseferry road SW1. Thats where we found crrptn in the HM Coroners. Burberry wont respond.We have found that Uni is full of corruptn as is the surrounding area incl Police. Courts. local govt. affinity groups. HM MPs and so on. He recently involved in anothet crrpt org which is mal funded ny Lottery etc.That also invlved the pretend ex Pm May. none of the ogs will answer questions. When we started discussing issues with a dept at notts the plug was pulled on the comms system and the person at their end disappeared. Altogether we have found similar things going on within 26 Universities. 26 Police areas. 26 Hm MPs. 26 local Govts.26 HM Courts incl CCC at E4 No reply from Baroness Kennedy at 'Justice' E4.(packs of lies'. The issue created by the 12 yrs we traipsed cent London knocking on doors accompanied by victims of the estab. We were subjected to violence and the culprits incl the public.The 1000 pp evidence was shown to BBC who advised this- .'Hide The Documents Abroad' We knew about 250 people at BBC and Cent London Theater. and they disappeared fast. We include the Current Affairs personnel. The violent Police have told us this- 'The evidence must not be shoiwn to the public and we the Police dont read evidence'. The Police have told us that they are sent by Local govt and HM Religion.Actors? pull the other leg. Entire UK press rigged to suit aimless public. The planet always was dangerous.No change in 10.000 yrs. Twelve people three miles ftom here funded to 'watch movies' We live in poverty after doing some of the best work ever seen in UK. Lufthansa Aircrash ask.Heres the latest by Local Govt- 'If Theres Anything Wrong With LG The Public Must Go Find A Lawyer' Both we and the victims searched for one for 12 yrs and we and they failed. The ones who 'found one' ended up broke. Theres another 999 pp of this.

It's a brave younger TV journalist who embarks on an interview with Sir Michael Parkinson. But Skavlan need not have worried. Parky is down to Earth, engagingly honest and forthright. Also a great entertainer in his own sphere. As a retired newspaper man and radio broadcaster/producer I tried for years to have a sit down with Parky but it never clicked at the right time, even though he was in Australia often. As the fates would have it, I was often in Europe when he was back in my home watching cricket. I have the utmost professional and personal respect for Sir Michael. When I finally was trusted to be sent out to interview well-known actors, movie stars, directors and other 'celebrities' I often used to think, '...what would Parky ask', however, it was oddly, one of Parky's most popular, recurring guests, Michael Caine who gave me a wise tip when talking about acting. He said it was vital to listen to the other actors and re-act, even though the scene might have been rehearsed and ten takes already done. A famous Australian character actor, John Meillon used as his mantra: “Concentrate, really concentrate; listen, really listen.” This was also Parky's secret. He used his famous memory, with research, and plotted a conversation. As another famous actor once said, "Never let them catch you acting!". The only problem I have with this video is that for some bizarre reason someone decided to edit this video so that we hear Parky’s comments about his drinking problem twice. Such a strange thing to do; almost as if the producers were trying to wring as much controversy out of this appearance as possible. If that was, in fact, the case. The person or persons responsible should be ashamed. Not so much so, if it was merely sloppy editing. Thank you for this upload. Cheers, BH

I was 13 in 1963 and living in Manchester, Grenada being the local TV station. So I hardly remember a time when Parky wasn't on television. I remember him first as a local presenter of topical news items. His Northern accent (albeit Yorkshire!) was like a breath of fresh air after listening to so many Southerners with their "posh" accents on TV! It was a time of social change as up to then only daft seeming comics had northern accents on TV.

Congratulations to Parkinson on coming out so honestly. People don't realise that alcoholism is the worst drug addiction because the drug is so socially accepted and expected. NOT the quantity you drink so much as the regularity with which. Anyone who can not endure more than 72 hours without a tipple has to concede that they have a problem; like it or not. You might say what about bingers?? Not quite the same thing and not as abstemious as they'd like to make out between the uncontrollable binges and the lost hours. It is a separate problem, not just the habit of the usual, "every now and then". "Mine's a sherry" says Auntie, "No, not that little glass, a white wine glass, the same as at lunchtime. I have to have it with my soup, the doctor said so; it's good for my heart."
