Dominic West’s Prince Charles impression | The Graham Norton Show – BBC
But isn’t it nuts to be playing Prince Charles I mean is the pressure of that greater or less to be playing a very very famous person yeah there’s an enormous pressure on the crown because it was such a successful show before I went in and Josh did such a great job
And and but at the end of the day you’ve got to do you’ve got to do parts that appeal to you and that you know that not that many come along you know we’ve got to take whatever you know when you got a juicy part like that you can’t turn it
Down and I love playing him he was brilliant are the short cuts into playing him well there is a bit I sort of I sort of you know pointing he’s a very funny man is he he always point so I point a I do a lot of point I
Do a lot of fiddling and then I saw this This brilliant doc this documentary of many documentaries on him that um he did with Jonathan dimble where he’s on a plane and he’s talking about he said you know I don’t do this for for my own good
You know I do this for Jolly Old Britain and I thought it was so funny this Jolly Old Britain every time I every time I was trying to get into him on set I just go Jolly Old Britain and I was [Laughter] in

It’s nice seeing Jimmy holding up good after Maryland 🤣
Love how Dominic also acted in Les Miserables
Jimmaaaaay!
He did a great job
Charles in the French Hospital, standing beside Diana: Jolly 'O Britan.
Michelle Keegan used to look so pretty……
I don't like his portrayal of Charles. He kept moving his mouth that Charles may have done some but not as obvious or frequent as the actor did.
Dominic West was in a American TV series called The Wire. About Baltimore City, much of it was non-fictional..
This I don't understand I have never seen him as a particularly handsome man, being a man a straight man I know what an attractive gentleman looks like, he is average at best..
However the next Batman movie where they need the Joker, I've always said they won't even have to change any makeup because his smile or mouth would make a great Joker
And an impression was what it was…not a performance. I truly thought he was awful- reminded me of Jack Lemons over the top prince in The Great Race.
Doesn't the royal protocol make them puppets? As in actors are director's puppet
Awful impression
