-Well, this is from a while back, but I would assume
you're sort of like a favorite son back in the U.K.
-Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. -There's been some --
This is an article from the "Times."
It's a big newspaper. -Big newspaper.
Yeah, Murdoch owns, so he can go [bleep] himself.
[ Laughter ]
Yeah. Yeah. [ Cheers and applause ]
-"John Oliver: the British comedy failure
who makes America laugh." [ Laughter ]
Did you know this was coming? -[ Laughs ]
I didn't know that headline was coming.
[ Laughter ] I knew an article was coming,
because they said, like, "Would you like
to do an interview for this?"
And I thought, it'll be on the front page
of, like, the culture supplement of the "Times."
I thought, "That will be great. It will be a sort of
nice surprise for my parents." [ Laughter ]
And then I had a conversation with this journalist,
like an hour and a half, felt like, "Oh,
this has gone quite well. I think we've hit it off.
I don't think I've said anything that's gonna look bad in print."
I was actually looking forward to it coming out.
[ Laughter ] And then that was the headline.
[ Laughter ] And it got --
The British people are just absolute black belts
at passive aggression, and that really feels like
it's a compliment really wrapped in concrete-enforced insults.
-Your first on-camera job
was you were in an adaptation of Charles Dickens' "Bleak House."
-So, that is actually true.
[ Laughter ] -You know what? That's true.
We do have to hammer home that that's true,
'cause that sounds like a joke you would make.
-It also sounds like an offensive stereotype
about a British person.
"You were all probably in Dickensian dramas growing up."
Sadly, I was. So, yeah.
No one has really found this out here other than your staff.
-Here's a photo. -This is it.
-Yeah. [ Audience "Awws" ]
Yeah, that's right.
This is what the President has done to me.
[ Laughter ]
Look, there's a child with light in his eyes there.
-Yeah. -Yeah, so...
Basically, when I was 6 years old,
the BBC was shooting a costume drama
called "Bleak House" nearby my school,
and they wanted a kid with dark hair and brown eyes,
and I was two for two on that.
So, yeah, I was in this, like, very, very lavish
Dickensian drama for the BBC with, like, Dame Diana Rigg.
I didn't understand what anything was.
I didn't know what was happening.
They just said, "Do you want to do this?"
I said, "Is it at the same time as school?"
They said, "Yes, you'll have to leave school,"
and I said yes before they ended that conversation.
Yeah, it was a very, very weird experience.
-Here's a clip.
I believe your character's name is Felix.
-That's right. I was Felix Pardiggle,
and I'm an orphan. -Okay.
-Yeah.
-You may have seen the names of my five boys
printed on a subscription list.
Felix, eight pence, to the Superannuated Widows.
-Yes. -Wow, really good.
Really good. [ Cheers and applause ]
-Thank you. Thank you.
-That is like one more element of the stereotype,
is that you played an orphan. [ Laughter ]
-It is so offensive.
If I'd spent half my childhood up a chimney,
that's the only way that you could make that
more reductive view of British people.
The amazing thing about that scene,
the only thing I remember about it is them saying,
"Hey, you need to act bored now."
And I remember thinking, "Oh, that's okay.
I am bored." [ Laughter ]
-My parents watched a ton of PBS when we were growing up.
They watched a ton of costume dramas.
Every one of them, from my perspective,
could've been called "Bleak House."
-That is absolutely fair. That's right.
That's an all-encompassing title.
Actually, the only other thing I remember from that
was Diana Rigg, who was, like, one of the great
British actresses, she gave me aniseed balls on set.
-I don't know -- What are aniseed balls?
-You don't have aniseed balls here?
-No. -Right, 'cause you value flavor.
[ Laughter ]
Is anyone here from Britain? -Yes.
-Yeah, do you remember aniseed balls?
-I do, indeed.
-Yeah, were they pleasant to put in your face?
-No, they're disgusting.
[ Laughter and applause ]
-Right. They are -- -[ Laughing ]
-They are absolutely disgusting.
-And then what -- And when you --
[ Laughter ]
By the way that's the most --
I've never seen someone so effectively interact
with an audience member on our show.
[ Laughter ]
Like, you were so clear -- -Yeah, yeah.
That is the way that British people
reminisce about their past.
"Do you remember that?" "Yes, it was awful."
"Me too." Yeah.
-The last time you were here was a couple of days
after Prince Philip had passed away.
-That's right, yes. -And now, obviously you're here
on the day of the Queen's funeral.
-I am, yeah. -And you're sort of our royal
correspondent by fate more than anything else.
-That's right, that's right. [ Laughter ]
-How are you taking it all in? -Thanks, thanks.
[ Laughter ]
Yeah, it's a difficult day.
Craig, you're from the U.K., right?
-I am, yeah. -Sorry for our loss.
[ Laughter ]
-You know what? I didn't know her.
[ Laughter ]
-Wait.
You guys promised me Craig knew her.
-Yeah, you know, basically, whenever a senior royal dies,
I will come here. [ Laughter ]
Just click your heels three times, and I will be here
to give it the disrespect it deserves.
-Yeah. [ Laughter ]
Well, thank you very much.
-It's been a very weird time in Britain.
This 10 days in forced mourning,
apparently, has been very, very strange.
-Yes. And one of the --
We were talking about this at the Emmys,
'cause we're both football fans. -Yes.
-I should clarify -- we're talking about soccer.
Which was -- they did not play any
of those games for about a week. -They didn't.
They kept -- rugby and cricket was allowed to go ahead.
[ Laughter ] And football had to stop
in an act of, I think, tangible class warfare.
