BBC Breakfast Interview and Screencaps

 
Both SuzyQ and [info]grigorisgirl have been kind enough to provide downloads of yesterday's BBC Breakfast interview with Alan Rickman. [info]grigorisgirl's hi res version of the interview can be downloaded here (please note massive file size):

SuzyQ also provided a download link for a somewhat smaller pixel size version. The link is posted at Claudia's Guestbook on yesterday's date.

Low Resolution Caps

I've gone berserk with my typical down-to-the-nanosecond screencapping. Here's a link to my gallery of 300+ screencaps.

As you can see, I've reduced them in pixel size to increase clarity. However, it's pretty cumbersome to try and browse these web-wise, so here's a zipped up file containing them all:

High Resolution Caps

I've also capped [info]grigorisgirl's hi res version, and have uploaded a zip file containing 283 hi res 1001x576 screencaps for your download (too big to put them all in a web galery):

Here are some examples you can click on to see the size/quality of them, example 1, example 2, example 3, example 4.



Here are some of my favorites:








If you look closely on the hi res version, you can actually see his slight stubble that he refers to.

*thud*


HUGE THANKS to SuzyQ and [info]grigorisgirl!!!!

Scruff n hair

You know this is probably the first time I've ever heard him mention his hair like he did. He said he was unshaven and then said something about the state of his hair. I wonder if his hair will always be so long when the Harry Potter series is over? I know that he has to keep it long for the wig attachments. And now he's growing scruff for Sweeney Todd. I certainly don't mind the scruff! heee hee...Just a thought..thanks Cats!

Re: Scruff n hair

I dunno. I guess I don't think of his hair being that much longer than normal - I think of him with his hair pretty much always being that long. I guess I'm saying I really don't see much of a difference in the state of his hair in this particular interview than it has been for awhile. I like it long!

Re: Scruff n hair

I'm one of those women that like a more clean cut man..except for facial hair..I love some stubble hee hee. His hair in your icon at Berlinale was perfect to me! Even in Private Lives...really short on the sides...Me luvs it! haha

Re: Scruff n hair

I don't think his hair in the icon looks that much diff from this interview, but I'm not very observant, either. Oh hell, I'll take him any which way! *snort*
thanks so much for sharing, I'm always glad you guys record such things for I can't get channels like BBC.

there's a little problem though:
I downloaded the high red file. it's supposed to be 285MB big, but my pc just downloaded 131MB and says it's done. the interview stops at the scene they show from snow cake where linda checks her kitchen.
did I do something wrong / missed something? :(

however, I greatly enjoyed the first few minutes (especially that smirk at the beginning and the little frown right afterwards ♥ ).
The file is 285MB so if you only have 131MB you didn't get it all somehow. :-(
meh.. I'll try it again :-\
Great job w/the hi-res caps, Cats!! He looks so very yummy!
His day to day hairstyle has always pretty much been the same. Longer layers, longer in the back. In fact, when I saw him with the "businessman's special" haircut for Private Lives, I thought he didn't look right! Let's hope he never goes for that super short look or the kind where they comb the bangs forward. (yick). His hair is one of his best features. It always looks so touchable.
You weren't kidding about it being a massive file. It's going to take almost an hour to download, and I'm on high-speed cable. I'm sure it will be worth it, though, and I really appreciate it.

For some reason your three favorites aren't showing up on my screen. Just that damn little red X in the box.
I think I know why the favorites pics weren't showing. Are they showing for you now?
Yes they are, and they're absolutely gorgeous.
I just watched the interview, and it is marvelous. Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping to make this available.

I love his hair that length, and don't think it's much different from his usual look, except possibly just a bit longer. Do you think he was serious about growing stubble for the shaving scene in Sweeney Todd? I would have thought that sort of thing would all be handled with make-up. I certainly hope they don't cut that lovely hair.

Oh, and I love the way he has one foot kind of tucked behind the other ankle in the interview. That's adorable.
Oh, it's SuzyQ and [info]grigorisgirl that deserve the thanks, not me. I wondered about him talking about the shaving/cutting in Sweeney Todd -- egads - I hope they don't actually cut his hair!!

Yeah, I noticed that foot thing. *swoon*

Yessssssssss!!

Oh man, the 285MB video would have been too much for my cyber-toaster, I didn't even give it a try... *still sobbing & cursing blasted dial-up connection*

Anyway, both Captures sets are AWESOME!! Those suited my humble resources just fine and made my day. Many, many thanks Cats, and to Sue too!!

I vote for the scruffy hair, that's Teh Look I prefer even though I love that Brit anyhow.
Btw, to my best knowledge, that's Teh Man's usual look, at least I can't see any difference either.

Perfect!
Here via [info]ar_daily. I've downloaded the 4.3mb version of the screen-caps, but I think I'll go for the high res ones, now. It's great to see such a high res Alan! ;D

Thanks for doing all this.
Fantastic screencaps. Thank you for sharing them.
Thank you so much for the screencaps. For some reason when i downloaded the hi res version it said that there was an error when i tried to play it on windows media player. He just looks so hot, sexy, adorable, gorgeous, and cute in this interview. I love his hair so long like it is. I hope he keeps it like that, it just looks so nice and soft. I would give anything to be able to run my fingers through it. I also love how much he smiles. His smile is one of the most sexiest and adorable thing about him. I would give anything to meet him and hear is laugh and see his smile for real. He just melts my heart.
Help please!
My Windows Media Player says it can't play the hi-res video, even though it downloaded normally. It is "searching for codec"??? Can anyone out there advise me of a way to fix that? Thanks! Maryland
I'm sorry, I don't know how to help with this. I noticed that Claudia said she had to download a Codec. Maybe she knows something?

Hiya, Cats, thanks so much for your work and effort with the breakfast interview. I tried to find a download button after I joined sendspace.com, but there isn't. Do you have an idea of what nature the problem is?

Re: download

Hikity, the link should be there. It is a small text link, probably towards the bottom of the page. It is hard to find.
Hello.. I'm sure you don't remember me because I posted a comment only once (and then with a similar request as well) in the few months I've been here, but I've been lurking (and squeeing :D) almost every day since I joined.
I saw this interview on youtube.com and thought it completely delightful. Unfortunately, the last minute of the interview has no sound and well.. let's not be coy, the higher resolution and the clearer picture of AR the better, right? So I was wondering if there is any chance you might be able to re-upload the hi-res (280ish MB) version of the vid? If you can't or don't want to for any reason, please don't worry about it. I hate being a nuisance.
Thanks in advance! :D:D:D
I do apologize, but I am really, really swamped right now with computer work and can't tie up my computer for hours uploading it.
Not a problem. :D Thanks anyway!
Ah! If only I'd known that you were here last year! Thanks for linking!
