Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley FUNNY INTERVIEW HD

Keira Knightley: Whom is the most well spoken
actor, you or me?

(laughter)
Benedict Cumberbatch: Oh man...

Knightley: No, we both know it's you because
I'm --oh no we're both pretenders.

Cumberbatch: You do a little bit-

(heavier British accent)

-You do a little bit, right? You always punk
it up a bit, I'm sure?

Knightley: Yeah, but you don't?

Cumberbatch: My mum is like: "What are you
doing dropping your H's and D's like that?"

Cumberbatch: My mum does that.

Knightley: Does she?

Cumberbatch: My mum does that, so I'm
a bit projecting.

Knightley: Oh no no, no, she does. My big
one when I was little was--

Cumberbatch: Oh there you go, "li-el."
Knightley: There you go, "li-el."

Knightley: And I used to go "showa" and my
mum used to always go: "Showa! Showa! What's
a "showa?!"

(laughter)

Knightley: (under breath) Shut up! You know?
Um, so, what does that mean?

Cumberbatch: I think we're sort of equal.

Knightley: Equally pretending to be posher
than we are. Ok.

Cumberbatch: Unlike these two people, because
you got, say, who looks better walking out of a lake

in a white shirt me or Colin Firth? (laughter)

Knightley: Wow. Well, you've got more skin
on show, so I think you win.

Cumberbatch: Ooh!

Knightley: Look at that! Sorry Colin.

Cumberbatch: You heard it here first Colin,
sorry.

Knightley: Yeah. Sorry.

Cumberbatch: Um, well I would say-

Knightley: And, and you've got that look I
was talking about before.

Cumberbatch: Is that the "blue steel look?"

Knightley: Yeah! Blue steel look! Yeah,
check that "blue steel look" out.

Cumberbatch: I think that was just, the
nerves in my face just kind of contracting-

Knightley: Oh just going: "I'm really cold."
(laughter)

Cumberbatch: (as nerves) "I'm constipated
with the cold!"

Cumberbatch: It's unfair. Also, it's him
really because he's in a lake, I'm in a pond.

Knightley: It's not as good, you're right.

Cumberbatch: Yeah, your turn.

Knightley: Oh, sorry, my turn. Um.

Knightley: The film is called "The Imitation
Game," but what's the best impression

you can do?

Cumberbatch: (as Alan Rickman) I couldn't
possibly tell you, unless you guess it, Harry

Potter.

Knightley: Oh, it's Alan Rickman, yeah. Nice one.

Cumberbatch: Oh, that took a little bit,
that was uncomfortable.

Knightley: No, sorry, it took me a little second
there but its good. No, it was good. It was
good.

Cumberbatch: (laughter) A little second.
Uh, my impression got worse and worse.

I'm well known for my "bromance" with
Tom Hiddleston, apparently.

Uh, but, he's a friend people. Get over it!
What is this thing with every man friend

has to be a "-mance".

Knightley: Like "bromance?"

Cumberbatch: Yeah! I got loads of bros I
have "-mances" with.

Knightley: There you go, say it loud and proud.
Cumberbatch: (laughs) Yeah!

(laughter)

Cumberbatch: I know you are bros with Tom
Hiddleston, but who is YOUR best "celebrity

pal?" (laughter)

Knightley: My best celebrity pal? Isn't that
the most disgusting question? I mean, you know,

you're pretty famous.
Cumberbatch: I'll do.

Knightley: You're like, you're up there.

Cumberbatch: We don't see enough of
each other though.

Knightley: No, we don't, it's terrible.
Cumberbatch: That's got to be remedied.

Knightley: Yeah, it has. Yeah! You're always
bloody working!

Cumberbatch: You're always making wine
somewhere.

(laughter)

Knightley and Cumberbatch: Sorry.

Knightley: Uh, who's question is it now?
Cumberbatch: I think it's you.

Knightley: Oh! Can you do the Keira
Knightley pout?

(laughter)

Cumberbatch: Sorry, I'm smiling too much.
Knightley: No, that was it! No, that was it!

Cumberbatch: I can't do it!

Knightley: Wait a minute, I don't quiver my lips!
Cumberbatch: No, that's me trying not to laugh!

(laughter)

Cumberbatch: I can't do it!
Knightley: The answer is no. No, he can't.

Because it's mine. (laughs)

Cumberbatch: Ok, I just tried it without you
looking. Ok, according to IMDB, you are a

West Ham fan, that's a good "tongue warmer."
Knightley: A what?

Cumberbatch: Tongue twister, mouth warmer
something, West Ham fan.

Knightley: Yeah.
Cumberbatch: And if so, what do you think of

Sam
(mispronounced)
Ala-di-ch-y's long ball tactics?

Knightley: Allardyce.
Cumberbatch: Allardyce, sorry!

Knightley: What do I think about his long
ball tactics? It's working this season.

Cumberbatch: Isn't it?
Knightley: We're doing very well. Ha-ha.

Cumberbatch: I don't know, I pretended
to know...

Knightley: (laughs) Um, right, wait a minute.
You are -you are officially Hollywood's best

photo-bomber. I thought that said
"photographer", and I didn't know you

took photos. But it's not so we'll
--can you give me some tips-

Cumberbatch: That would be really weird,
I'm Hollywood's officially best photographer.

Knightley: Uh, can you give me some tips, and
who should I target?

Cumberbatch: Yeah, don't wear heels because
that would make for an awkward landing.

Knightley: Yes.

Cumberbatch: Um, and, um, any group of
rockers standing in a line.

Knightley: Rockers?

Cumberbatch: Rockers.

Knightley: Oh I know lots of them, great, so
I'll just what, jump up behind them?

Cumberbatch: Just me.

Knightley: Just you? Shall I do that tonight?
Oh, but I'm wearing heels.

Cumberbatch: Well, take them off for a bit
and just go: "Whee!"

Knightley: What run around?
Cumberbatch: Yeah, just always get a good

angel, on. You know? Get a run up as well.

Knightley: Thanks.

Cumberbatch: What was the most surreal
moment you had making Star Wars Episode 1?

Knightley: Uh, god I was 12. So I don't really
remember it. I do remember falling off the

back of a golf buggy in front of Ewan Mcgregor.
I don't know if that was surreal, it was just embarrassing.

Cumberbatch: Question answered, I'd say people.

Knightley: Um, oh wait a minute. According
to a recent online video, you can't pronounce

penguins properly? Is that true?

Cumberbatch: Yeah, I've heard about this.
Penguins.

Knightley: What's that?
Cumberbatch: Penguins.

Knightley: You're saying it right.
Cumberbatch: Penguins.

Cumberbatch: Was I putting a "w" in
or something?

Interviewer: We actually have the video.
Cumberbatch: Oh, can I have a look?

Because I don't --I heard this was big
news last week.

Knightley: (laughs) You were huge news
last week.

Cumberbatch: Yeah, breaking story everybody.
Interviewer: Let's see.

Cumberbatch: Important stuff, indeed. Penguin.
Knightley: Penguin.

Video of Cumberbatch: "Peng-wings." Crusted
"peng-wings."

Knightley: "Peng-wings." You're saying "peng-wings!"

Video of Cumberbatch: So why are these
woodlands so attractive to "peng-wings?"

Knightley: (laughs) "Peng-wings."

Cumberbatch: "Peng-wings" I put a "w" in there.
That's awful.

Knightley: That's an "l", "peng-lings?"

Cumberbatch: "Peng-lings" did that sound like
a "ling."

Knightley: Yeah, that sounded like a "ling."

Cumberbatch: I had a "wing" in there. "Peng-wings."

Knightley: So, does that mean that my
pronunciation of penguins is better than

yours going back to that previous question.

Cumberbatch: Say it again?

Knightley: Penguins.

Cumberbatch: Penguins.

(laughter)

Cumberbatch: Did I get it right again?

Knightley: No, you got it right. But you
really did get it wrong about 3 times in there.

Cumberbatch: Well it's a good job the people
of the world decided to find that out now,

because this November there's another film
coming out called "The Penguins of Madagascar"

which I'm going to have to say.
