On the other hand, the fact that he is able to answer the same questions repeatedly has clearly made him more comfortable in interviews, which is a relief to watch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843411604449664157.post-67442789653811356892011-03-16T00:05:55.124-04:002011-03-16T00:05:55.124-04:00Richard gives very intelligent and interesting int...Richard gives very intelligent and interesting interviews; I really enjoy reading and watching them. My favourite TV interview is "the blue shirt" one too. The short Interview given in his Spooks trailer was also very good, he looks very comfortable and happy.<br />I have mixed feelings about the huge Hobbit Media coverage, wonder how RA will cope being under the spot light.Summernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843411604449664157.post-55272673392005794572011-03-15T20:17:10.962-04:002011-03-15T20:17:10.962-04:00I feel ambivalent about future interviews.

I imagine that in the future grand ruckus, he will give canned answers. On the other hand, if it means more pix of him, so BRING IT ON! <br /><br />(But I will still whinge about any suspected glib. :))pihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07101335588855131315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843411604449664157.post-73340150007297551872011-03-15T07:45:43.832-04:002011-03-15T07:45:43.832-04:00....I have GOT to start going to more charity cric.......I have GOT to start going to more charity cricket matches!<br /><br />The circus question will come up again & again here in North America simply because it's never been asked over here.

I'm not sure it is going to happen however but I live in hope. I suspect he is managing to lead a very anonymous existence over in Wellington. According to a lady who met him at the recent charity cricket match, no one knew who he was in NZ. This is fairly evident when you see the likes of James Nesbitt, Martin Freeman and Ian McKellen forever in The Hobbit news - the only time we have seen RA is at the press conference and he barely got a word in. I think I posted over at Traxy's blog (can't remember now as there are so many of us) that I would be surprised if we hear anything from RA until TH is released next year ..... unless he does something for CA or Strike Back 2. <br /><br />Having said that, I did ask our ABC if they would interview him for the airing of Spooks 9. I can dream ....lol.mulubinbahttp://mulubinba.typepad.com/an_ra_viewers_perspective/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843411604449664157.post-83657581515765869282011-03-15T04:25:10.705-04:002011-03-15T04:25:10.705-04:00There are few pleasures I enjoy more than Richard ...There are few pleasures I enjoy more than Richard Armitage TV interviews. More, more, more please! How great it will be if and when he comes to America on talk shows to promote The Hobbit someday. His fanbase will go through the roof! My favorite interview so far is what I call "the blue shirt interview" of Richard Armitage on GMTV in 2009. He's clean-shaven and looks so lovely! But I like seeing him in all phases of facial hairdom. ;)bccmeehttp://fanvideos.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843411604449664157.post-18133507989247811932011-03-15T01:51:38.597-04:002011-03-15T01:51:38.597-04:00I'm looking forward to more bearded interviews...I'm looking forward to more bearded interviews! :) I think he handled himself very well at "The Hobbit" press conference last month.
