Alistair Mcgowan as Michael Parkinson interviewing other impressionists 

It's quite amazing how much he just nails Parkinson to a tee.

Saville and Harris.... What a difference a couple of years can make

McGowan’s Parkinson is absolutely incredible! From the accent itself to the mumbling and stuttering. Amazing!

I keep coming back to this. A wonderful impression and sketch. It's set up for Mcgowan in a genius performance. He gets the character and cartoon of Parkinson perfectly.

All three are hilarious and great impressionists, but Alistair's Parkinson is just incredible

McGowan is just sensational - absolutely the best impression I've ever seen.

Hillarous! His Parkinson his absolutely perfection

I watched a Parkinson video after this and he scratched his ear in the same way! So spot on it’s unreal, the stutters, the mumbling, the shifting

Parkie best impression ever totally spot on

This is a superb impression of Parky..the inflection, articulation, mannerism all spot on.

The real Parky died today aged 88 but his legacy lives on.

To maintain Parkinson for so long is amazing,

Never even considered anyone would do Parkinson but after watching this he is spot ON. Amazing :)

Tremendous impression of parky definitely in my top 5 of all time to a T how he mumbles incredible well done alistair top class

Haha this is brilliant! McGowan is spot-on with Parky!

This is absolutely brilliant, especially McGowan's "Parkinson" and Ancona's "Davina McCall" impressions!

1:40 I know it's not a competition but Culshaw pulls out the stops as best he can with Springer, Bush, Beckham, Dawson then MacGowan just sweeps it all aside with one ridiculous rise of pitch as Parky. Macgowan's the master.

AM's Parky is absolutely spot on. The laugh he got out of Rory Bremner when he said 'grows' was brilliant

Went to make a cuppa & came back to watch. I was sure it was Parkinson. Absolutely sublime

McGowans Michael Parkinson is brilliant, but the Saville impression by Bremner was absolutely spot on, I was crying with laughter.

Eyes closed, you'd not know know it was not Parky.

Jimmy Savile and Rolf Harris mentioned in the space of 20 seconds, the things we never knew only and such a short time a go.

That Michael Parkinson impression is exquisite.

4:00 - Love how the trouser leg keeps getting higher up as Parky (Alistair) pulls it during interview.

Alistair McGowan is amazing 😂😂😂

McGowan is the best impressionist ever.

This was from "Night of a Thousand Faces" - a one-off Christmas Special taking a look at the world of impressions. It aired on Saturday 22nd December 2001 on BBC One in the UK.

My god he's brilliant.....they all are. He's got Parkinson's behavior spot on. Culshaw's Frank Bruno is bang on the money. Her impersonation of Davina is brilliant too.

His parky is amazing. I have seen him do Beckham and many others. He is gifted 😊😊😊

absolutely nails it brilliant as Parkinson

Roni Ancona is a real beauty and so smart.

I’ve watched this again it’s out of this world how to the T alistair is on parky mind blowing

That impression of Parky is spot on! 😲 Close your eyes and it's him 😆

It's great to see this. Around 10 years ago, Alistair was the first artist I saw live at the Norwich Playhouse. He'd gone out of fashion and off our screens for some time, and while I always enjoyed watching him, the live set blew me away. A victim of his own success and unfairly maligned, for someone with such a great talent.

His Parky is amazing! For me, Alistair McGowan is always the best impersonator 😁.

I legit forgot he wasn't Parkinson a few times during this. Amazing impression.

"Make no mistake, that will be discoverefied" 😂

Damn, his Frank Bruno impression is unequalled, it's superb.

Roni is well beautiful

I had tears watching Alistair doing parky.....brilliant.

OMG this is amazing!!! I forgot how good his Parkinson was! It is McGowan VS Calshaw - and McGowan wins everytime!!!

All 4 of these impressionists in this clip came back on iTV in 2018 to do The Imitation Game with Alexander Armstrong. That show was hilarious!!!!

Amazing. Loved Audrey Hepburn at the end. Crazy how rolph and saville got their limelight just before everything came out. That’s a couple less minutes to their portfolios

Parkinson close your eyes it is unbelievable. All the mannerisms etc. absolutely brilliant

Fabulous to hear these ppl you all have me in stitches

Ronni anconna impressions always reminds me of a sean bean discription I heard years ago. Sean bean the man of a thousand voices and everyone of them from Sheffield

More like Parky than Parky - his jerking left arm and the bit pulling up his trouser leg is a touch of genius.

That is a work of genius! Keeping a straight face as Parky all the way through the interviews just made it so real. 😲👌

''Grows!!!!!'' in a rough voice.

What an amazing concept, 4 impersonators on stage, amd the potential for so many voices, and their versions of the same people.

I never had much time for McGowan, but his Parkinson is absolutely nailed here!

One of the funniest things I've heard for ages.

Born and raised in the US and cannot stop watching these 2 doing impressions of people I mostly have no idea about but after looking all of them up and comparing, would I be far off calling these two UK's best impressionists in the past 20-30 years?

Jon Culshaws interview response is almost exactly the same as when he appeared on Parkinson for real with Eammon Holmes.

Ronnie Ancona .....so gorgeous. ..

Brilliant. And the double whammy of Savile and Rolf too.

What I think is so amazing is the way they switch so quickly and successfully between voices. ❤❤

I love how McGowan's trousers keep getting higher.

Superb!

Never saw or knew of this before, which is weird for me, was a treat

Alistair McGowan doing one impression perfectly is better than 100s(?)

I think Alistair is the best of them all

Immaculate impression.

Close your eyes and it’s Parky. Beautifully done.

i like it when parky goes uhuhuh ''uuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnnmmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnrrrrrrr''

Finally. I had to see Jon Culshaw and Rory Bremner on the same screen to believe that they are not the same person. I thought it was like Steve Cougan doing Alan Partridge but no, they are really Two different people.

That Parkinson impression is sensational.

That Michael Parkinson impression is unbelievable, superb. RIP Michael

Brilliant, both Masters of impressions .

This is priceless!

she is so gorgous

Absolutely fantastic

Without dought the best impression I’ve ever ever heard spot on by McGowan 🤙

Alistair Mcgowan was the GOAT

Fabulous sketch! Love it!

Alistair McGowan one of the best impressionists of our time.

Yeah he's absolutely brilliant as parky!! So funny.

Absolutely brilliant

Everyone saying the Parky impression is great, but the guy doing Jon Culshaw is brilliant.

Brilliant Alastair was so deadpan

Surely there isn't much better than an impressionist playing a role with other impressionists who are not in role. Bang-on, also.

Ronni is beautiful

Culshaw’s Blair is a thing of beauty.

Alastair is brilliant has Parky

One of the funniest routines ever

"I want to ask you first of all, if I may" - was Parkinson's opening line to a lot of his interviews.

McGowan is the greatest

Brilliant, all four

These are so spot on. Thats talent 😅

Bremner smiling at McGowans Parky as he knows it`s so good.

Great talent all round love Al and Jon.

I thought mike yarwood was the man for parky but Alistair has really nailed it..👍

Really entertaining clip. Love it

Pure genius, they are superb!!!

Perfect impression of Parky RIP

05:02 had me crying 🤣

so much difference to TV now, one tiny joke makes the audience roar with laughter to force joy, which makes it sad in way

Alistair is brilliant. Not only is his Parkinson accurate - and funny - he also looks a LOT like Peter Sellers!

Rolf AND Jimmy!!!

These two are VERY good.
