Winston Churchill Would Not Sign Richard Attenborough's Photograph | The Dick Cavett Show

Very strange to see him younger and without the beard.

If anyone wants to know how good an actor he is, watch him playing a serial killer in 10 Rillington Place

Dr. Hammond from Jurassic Park ..... RIP 🙏

RIP Sir Richard!

The interviews that dick cavett did would have been better if cavett had actually been more intelligent there would have been a better flow in conversation

Churchill senior telling young Winston he was the graetest disappointment of his fathers life is truly shocking . very few of us live up to our parents expectations , but at least most parents refrain from telling their children how disappointed they felt towards us . such a sad story .

Spared no expense

People from the later parts of the 1800s really experienced the most significant changes in their lifetimes, from horses to cars and planes, TV, radio, etc. When Richard mentions Winston being in the last British cavalry charge with a saber at full gallop, then later the atom bomb... mind blowing really.

In my view, everyone listening to this must remember RA is an actor; he makes up stories; his work/films are fiction. In contemporary language, he is a fake. He single handedly destroyed facts and manipulated reality with the film Ghandi. But, of course, we are not allowed to admit such things these days. We must believe the myth that what is on the screen in true.

Talking about his still relatively unknown brother ha ha

I clicked on this suprised David Attenborough had a famous brother just to hear this man casually talking about his little known brother that writes books

RA, pretentious little liberal. Full of himself and it shows in this clip.

I prefer his brother David Attenborough who narrates the nature shows.

Its very rare , to find an actor , who can act , direct & produce & richard Attenborough was one of those who could do it all & did it with such enthusiasm & professionalism & was honoured by his piers for all three in the uk 🇬🇧 & us 🇺🇸 one of Britain's greats , sadly no longer with us , did some of my favourite films , the great escape , the sand pebbles , 10 riddlington place , miracle on 34th street & the guinea pig ( actor ) , a bridge to far , young winston , cry freedom , chaplin , shadowlands & magic ( director , Producer ) on some ..

Such an incredible man with such an incredibly life. From having been born in a time long before modern medicin, long before computers, RADAR, SONAR, airplane travelling, nuclear power plants, man's ventures into outer space, the introduction of dinosaurs to our society, so on and so forth. It's amazing how much happened in this man's 90 years-worth of life compared to 90 years prior to his birth.

Churchill has blood an his hands. He, Stalin and Roosevelt in Yalta handed over to the devil all of East Europe. He is responsible for lots of lots of suffering of many many people.

Cavett is next to useless in this interview.

that is not such a bad idea we should do it today

Back then they had intellectual personalities. Now all swear words stars

"Welcome to Jurassic Park"!

He was amazing in The Great Escape.

Oooh, I wonder who his "brother" could be.

Although Churchill was in the last cavalry action [ at the Battle of Omdurman 1898 ] against Dervishes carrying pikes he could not have used a sabre as Attenborough states, since he had a permanently injured right shoulder, and accordingly used a Mauser pistol. According to his own account of the battle [ his best selling second book " The River War " ] he definitely despatched at two natives and probably three with a possibility of a fourth.

I have a brother...he writes books.

David Attenborough was controller of the second national BBC Television channel BBC Two from when it launched in April 1964 until 1969. In 1969 he was promoted to director of programming on both BBC television channels, BBC One and BBC Two until 1973.

Such very, talented, men the Attenborough brothers...Young Winston was an excellent film BTW...

In the top 5 finest British actors of all time, which is quite somethging

Richard Attenborough here looks so alike his brother David!

A true Brit one of my all time favourite actors a legend rip

Is this channel ever going to show Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason and/or Art Carney? I don’t have the Decades. I got nothing against the celebs that appeared on this show BTW.

have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rare much like the other Cavett ones.

A great man talking about a great man. Very interesting.

Young Winstone ... ghastly movie ...

Great clip but the caption is 'clickbait' as it was a story about how Clementine Churchill got Winstone to sign pictures

Unfortunately his brother David has turned into an environmental nut job !

Young Winston is an astonishingly superb portrayal of Churchill.

I saw that Winston Churchill bio film 🎥 when I was a teen ...very inspiring film ...left it's mark on me ❤💙

Agree that was a very good performace very creepy.

Interesting parallel too , and explain how important Princess Diana was to her son's. So much more involved. Which made a big difference , I should say for next generation Brithis Royalty. Interesting that Kathy is having issues with sending George away to such Boarding. school. The Danish Royalty has moved into a more modern approach. For Sir Chirchill to have survived such Child abuse is uncanny. But, unspoken, Prince Charles had some very unfortunate Mentors as well. Aside, I notice, and interesting, how men often have a difficult time with their Sons choices. Wonder what that is?! Why would they want a carbon copy off themselves?! Not sure. As a mother, always said , choose your Destany! But, then work hard at it. And, I will support you. And did. More than they know. At some point asked my then ex , :" Come to California ,see how well he is doing. Will do you both good.!! Of Course he hoped to visit with me. We did, all 3 over lunch. Went really well. Then, prior had promised my son, the rest off the 8 day's is your's to show your Dad a good time. Judging from pictures, they had a great time. Best thing his dad told him,:" If I was young, I would go to California too. That, really made my son's day. From then on, wish all children could have that! Ongoing. Something to think about.🤔🙏🎬🇺🇸🇩🇰🌅💙

I will always remember "Welcome...to Jurassic Park"

It was always assumed Randolph had syphilis.
These days it's mostly regarded as probably having been Crone's Disease.

He was wonderful In the angry silence, the Guinea Pig, 10 rillington place, sea of sand , Brighton Rock 🪨, The Great Escape, flight of the phoenix,the scamp,Dunkirk,the list goes on and on ……what a legend

I could listen to him and David talk all day.. super interesting, his conversation captivates you!

The so called "elites" are cold it seems. Families are for togetherness and warmth. 4 conversations with his father. No wonder he grunted at signing his name. War suits deranged people.

Great

Such a luvvy

I had the pleasure of meeting this great man in 2005. A very brief interaction, but one I will always remember.

Can you believe Attenborough is 49 in this clip?
