What would you say to your 16 year old self?
"Cut yer Hhhhhair"....i was sure he was gonna say heart xD

[caramianardone]

OMG Andrew Scott in real life is a real sweetie!! He's got such a great accent. You would never guess it because he is such a psycho on 'Sherlock'-- that shows he is a great actor.

I'm a simple girl...I see Andrew Scott in the title, I click.

[Shadywolf]

This boy gives me life; he's one of the sweetest actors I've come across and he never fails to put a smile on my face. What an inspiring young man.

[chiorina]

As soon as I saw the name Andrew Scott, I had to watch it.

[simmy]

when he's stressed his Irish accent comes out more and more hahaha

[NickSheridanVids]

He has a big forehead, I have a big forehead. Hopefully this means we can get a beer sometime.

"What you see is your big break?.." I WANT TO BREAK

[cjb]

"It doesn't matter if you don't get it." Literally almost made me tear up. As someone who grew up as an over looked theater kid I understand just how important that sentence is. You are truly amazing Andrew.

"Cut your hair!" he's sooo cute huhu

[clairedellorto]

This makes me want to see Andrew with long hair...

[CliveNDerek]

I answered "I, Claudius, " as well. This obviously means we should be married. The explanation about resistance to memorizing a line is nothing short of brilliant.

[deathwitheponine]

I don't even know how many times I've watched this. He's spectacular and I really REALLY love the way he says 'it' at around 1:06 - and :12. Irishmen...*sigh*

[funkyourself]

At the end, he is like : "I will take out this paper before the end AHHHH"

[blair]

Why 60 seconds…? I could spend rest of my life watching him 💕

[tispumpkinhead]

"umm, CUT YOUR HAIR" 😊😊😂💞💞 AWWW HES SO ADORABLE, AND NOW I WANT TO SEE HIM AT 16 WITH LONG HAIR

[embee]

So lucky to see this chap outside the Barbican a couple of nights ago, he signed autographs when he didn't have to and made our day!

[romanempressolivia]

he is so darn cute and I agree with the comment below hes inspiring and one of the sweetest. Sure wish we could meet!

[somangchung]

Gosh I wish he could just record himself talking about the randomest stuff for hours so I can listen to it when I'm doing anything. BUT THEN THOSE ARMS and his beautiful neck.

[laneynoir]

If you cant remember a line its because you dont want to say the line.

This is so true I can't-
