Pacomartin Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 1068 Posts: 12569 | Julie Walters is best known to Americans for her role in Educating Rita over 30 years ago. James Corden was virtually unknown to most Americans until his Late Night Talk show. David Tennant became internationally famous as Dr Who, but he is better knwon as the Man in Purple on Netflix's Jessica Jones. Most of his performances are British. Stephen Mangan is on the British/American dark comedy, Episodes, along with Matt Le Blanc. Most of the other comedians are primarily on British shows. If you watch British "chat" shows you tend to know some of them. |

Freddie Flintoff is probably a great speaker. The rest all look like comedians.. Or at least people who've done comedy. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |
