luke thompson speaking french is the most attractive thing ever
i just flooded my basement
It's a crying shame France is the enemy (or just used to be) in the Bridgerton era because Benedict speaking French would be very hot! 🥵
Luke's laughter lights up hearts, and his smile is so phenomenal and genuine.
Please let Luke speak a bit of French in Bridgerton. That would be simply wonderful.
Excellente idée ;)
Well he used to date the modiste 😅 maybe she’s Sophie
Sophie was taught French in the book, so that would be great!
@@Mrsamj1989she's not!
cannot WAIT for him to take his lead in bridgerton!!!
yeah but when? it was supposed to be him for season 3 if we follow the book....so season 4?
@@Takecareofyourbusiness theres a possibility that szn 4 will be ab eloise and phillip
I'll be waiting for you Benedict.
@AP-ct4me it’s been confirmed that season 4 with be Benedict and Sophie
I went to school with him in France , he was always lead in school plays.
Really? You are so lucky
@@valeo862 Yeah we were in the same class together. We weren't best of friends of that sort. But I remember having the odd conversation with him over the couple of years. He had alot of female friends and spent alot of time in their company.
@@adamparker1504haha I can’t imagine how that was like I assumed he was more on the shy side 😂
Well, Luke Thompson is just so charming and very lovely, isn't he? ❤️
Yes, he is 😊
7:57 Luke speaking French 🤤
The community thanks you for your work ❤
"Inhabit a language. " I love that.
watching Rob go so off script and enjoy giving Luke a hard time is delightful to watch. I wouldn't be surprised if these two work together soon.
Luke was a good sport because I don't think everyone would go with that sort of thing like he did. 😍
How did I JUST find this interview?!!! Love Luke - he's my favourite Bridgerton and was GREAT in A Little Life :)
“If you cant keep up With me” 😂😂😂
I’m waiting so hard for his season, i can not wait for Sophie
He’s so cheerful 🥹 what a ray of sunshine he is! My heart
Luke is absolutely charming. Hope to catch him in a play while in London. Cheers Guys!
I have never laughed so hard at an interview! 😂 Fantastic host and Luke is lovely as always 💙 Thank you for this!
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
Luke Thompson could cancel my flight and I’d not even be mad at him. Bless him
Luke, can we be friends? He is the kind of person that you probably forget how the time pass when having a chat with about anything, any subject, even the weather! lol.. It's just nice to hear his thoughts, specially culture. Everytime, I stop and think about the point he has made, ginving me a new perspective of the subject. Keep like that, Luke! I wish we have more of those podcasts with him.
Everyone is yearning for Benedict's season and of course it will be amazing but the longer they put it off the more Benedict/Luke Thompson we get as afterwards he'll inevitably feature less, I am happy to be patient - Luke's comedic timing is superb, particularly 'I'm in the MIDST of a conversation' in season 2. Rob - full disclosure came here predominantly for Luke but a genuine Marion and Geoff fan - you could say I straddle both worlds
I love this way of thinking in terms of Benedict’s season! Definitely makes me feel more patient because Benedict’s book is my favourite lol
@@elliedunne4548mine too - can't wait for the My Cottage scenes ❤
Luke Thompson is a ray of light. ❤ but if he doesn’t start to speak about Sophie Beckett soon I will respectfully lose my mind.
literally me combing through this podcast to find any and all mention of bridgerton HAHA
You are a very talented actor, Luke. You are a man of good character and smile ❤😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast. I would listen to Luke all day, especially when he starts speaking French ❤. Love him.
To be fair, Rob's French attitude and noise are pretty good 👍😂
As a French absolutely not 🤷♀️
You really have to be quick to keep up with Brydon, and I think Luke did a great job parrying. 😂 He went there ready to be entertained too!
Love Luke! He's a beautiful person both inside and out
C'est tellement bien de vous écouter parler français Luke! Quelle joie ! Vous êtes absolument fabuleux !
Luke Thompson really need to have a role for James Bond or maybe just one of the characters from James Bond...
J'aime trop la voix de Luke lorsqu'il parle Français 😍! Que Dieu le bénisse ❤️🔥🙏🏾
The laughs in this brightened my day significantly THANK YOU ❤
Great chemistry with these two!!!
why is rob being such a flirt here lol
I was like "I can watch this entire interview with this INCREDIBLE french !" But he switched to english so enven if I can understand a little, i'm little sad to not watch this interview with he's beautiful french 🥺😍
Luke is cute and all but LOVE THE HOST. Now am googling his other interviews. He is soo funny.
This interview is so funny omg hahahahah I loved watching you two! Gonna listen to the whole thing 💕
Thank you! That was delightful!!
He is soooo charming , and yeah , the fact that he laughs so much is hypnotic ! I like him more as a person , when I was his fan as a bridgerton ❤😊
Thanks for this interview ! Luke seems to be an easy going person. I liked hearing him speaking in my language 😊
Hysterically funny interview, thank you
🎉 this was wonderful
I love it when someone's voice actually changes when they speak french! I think I like his French voice better😂
Cuore🧡🧡🧡
So sorry all... Enjoyed Luke Thompson, felt he had to keep laughing just to deal with all of Rob's interruptions. This interview had a really weird flow, too chaotic for me. 🤷♀️
Very late to the party (I only just found this interview), but omg yes! Let the poor guy speak! He never got to say what he wanted to say because the host kept interrupting. It was painful to watch, but Luke handled it very well.
He seems better at french than I am, and french is my first language
I really enjoyed the host in Gavin and Stacey
Superb
Oh God... no... no.. I can't fall in love with another man WAY PAST MY AGE. LUKE... LUKE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO ME.
I remember Victor Spinetti from A Hard Days Night.
Wow amazing
EXCUSE ME?! I'm gonna need to hear Luke Thompson speaking more French because... HELLO?! 🔥
funny interactions between them
L'entendre parler Français ça surprend un peu au début et on s'y fait :)
I agree it was so surprenant !!
Tradução em português. Por favor!!
I'm french , this IS my language and i'm flustered 😮💨😭
A cause de ??
Where can i see the full interview video?
Wherever you get your podcasts! Apple podcasts, Spotify, Google podcasts, Amazon music to name a few 👍
😍😍😍
AND he's speaking MY birth language, quite perfectly too..Even more attractive ;)
Il parle trop bien français c'est une dinguerie
ha! I got excited because one of my first school plays was Oh what a lovely war aswell - however I did not goi on to become a famous actor.
they should remake quantum lrap and cast luke because he looks just like a young scott bakula.
He looks like a young Christopher plummer I think
what’s the timestamp of Luke speaking french?
I like this but I feel Rob just talks ALL over him at times.
Il parle mieux français que moi alors que je suis française 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Now i understand why foreigner finds french sexy lol
Not me instantly clicking because Luke is just… I’m very gay 😅
he is not gay
@@Takecareofyourbusiness I literally never said he was 🙄
This is the first time I have seen your show, and I won't be tuning in again. It is not funny to belittle and repeatedly poke fun at someone simply because he/she is young. My son came in the other day telling me about this cool new song (Beatles...Hey Jude...smh). I will not belabor the point. Also, you called him out twice for being defensive. I would have been as well. I also can't believe that you told him to relax. You were the cause of the friction. He is clearly more good natured than I am, but I am older. Don't ruin what makes him such a rarity. He is a genuinely nice, talented actor. It would be nice not to throw him to the wolves just yet. I would be shocked if he came back.
It’s his style. He’s a very well known comic and actor and it’s all banter and fun. Taking the piss. He’s been around longer than Luke and has been well known for years especially for Gavin and Stacey . And Luke knows it’s all tongue in cheek and fun Hence him laughing so much! He references fellow actors and comics- David Walliams, Simon Pegg.
Thanks for sharing. I appreciate the perspective since I am not familiar with him.
I cannot wait for his season ❤️ The book Benedict is just amazing and i love Sophie & Benedict love story 🥹 (i’m french so sorry for my english guys)
❤❤🎉❤🎉❤❤❤luke
