Welcome back to the Tonight Show.
Ow!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thanks so much for coming back on.
I always love having you on.
You were supposed to be here two weeks ago, but we got hit with the crazy blizzard and there were no flights leaving London, so thank you for coming back.
Well, thank you for having me.
Yeah, the weather just said no last night.
The weather just said absolutely no, yeah.
Last time you were here, you announced that you and your wife were expecting a baby.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We've got another announcement.
Oh, you have another announcement tonight?
Yeah, we're not having any more.
Oh, that's it?
That's the announcement?
That was the announcement.
Your two is perfect.
Yeah, it turns out girls are bolshie.
So I think we're good with two.
Two is perfect.
Yeah.
That's what I have too.
Yeah, it's great.
How's your son?
How's the older one?
He's good.
He's five now.
He started to rip the piss out of me, which is fun.
He's five and he started to rip the piss.
Yeah, I was driving to school the other day and he was in the back of the car and I just heard this kind of oh, isn't that a lovely field.
Look at that lovely field.
Aren't we lucky to live here?
I was like, he's like, aren't we fortunate to live here?
Oh, look at this.
I was like, are you doing me?
And he was like, my name's Daddy.
I love you.
Good job, bud.
I don't know if he's starting to be an actor or what, but it was a bit terrifying.
It's so funny.
What a beautiful day.
What a beautiful day.
Do you remotely talk like that?
No, well, I mean, you tell me.
I don't know.
No, not at all.
I don't feel that way, no.
Is he psyched?
Do his friends know who you are yet or what you do yet?
I think there's a rumor going around in the playground that I'm a real knight.
So, like, I feel like I've got kudos in the playground.
Yeah, you got props.
His dad's a real live knight.
Yeah, I have photos of him holding a sword.
I walk in with a swagger into the playground.
Wearing a big fur outfit, yeah, Game of Thrones, yeah.
That would be sad.
Yeah, no, it would be cool.
Well, I mean, you've starred in two of the very highly regarded series Game of Thrones and now Industry.
Congratulations on both hits.
Fans must recognise you all around the world and ask for different shows and different reasons.
They come up to you all the time?
Yeah, you do.
I mean, you get the odd, awkward sort of encounter.
But it's usually sort of... It's usually my fault it goes a bit awkward.
How do you make it awkward?
I don't know if you've had this, but you know when you get asked for a photo?
Yeah.
And it's usually a tourist and you're in the middle of London or something.
And...
They come up, and maybe English isn't their first language, and they're like, Oto.
And you go, you know, you're with your friends, and you're like, yeah, okay, sure.
Here we go, yeah, yeah.
And you walk up into the middle of that group of people.
It's part of the business.
Put your arms around them.
Of course.
And they go, no, Big Ben, we want you to take a photo of us and Big Ben.
We don't want you in it.
We don't want you, we don't even know who you are.
Big Ben, dude, can you take our photo?
Your mates are just howling.
Yeah, of course.
It's the best.
Of course he thought it was about you.
Of course he did.
Of course he thought it was about you.
No, I get that all the time.
I get people come up to me all the time, like, I love you, I watch you on YouTube all the time.
I go, yeah, can we take a picture?
And I take a picture, and they're like, here we go.
And then I leave, and I talk to them, and they walk away.
They go, I can't believe I just met Jimmy Kimmel.
Give me that picture back again.
I text Kimo, like, met another one of your fans, buddy.
Keep them laughing.
But soon you're going to be living in the city.
Are you doing a limited series here set in New York?
Yeah, I'm going to be working with Lindsay Lohan and Shailene Woodley.
Oh, my God.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
I love both of them.
I know.
They're great.
And we're doing this kind of, I don't know how to describe it.
It's like a domestic thriller where we're all kind of quite appalling people.
So that's fun.
That's going to be great.
Do you like spending time?
You lived here for a little bit.
Yeah, no, we spent months out here when Rose was doing a show here.
We spent a lot of time in the city.
Yeah.
How does it compare to London?
I love it.
Sometimes I find the only trouble I fall into is there's communication difficulties at times.
Oh, really?
This is how I best sum up differences between Brits and Americans.
It's the coffee shop thing.
When I go into a coffee shop, I go, hello, how are you?
You good?
Yeah.
You know I'm good, too.
I wouldn't, do you, sorry, I'm just wondering whether you, I don't know what I want.
Do you do, is it, have you got oat milk?
Sure.
You do?
Excellent.
That's brilliant.
How long have you had that?
OK, great.
And they're looking at you like.
Get on with it.
Hurry up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What is going on, Mr. Polite Guy?
When the Americans come to London, they go like, coffee, black.
And the guy in the coffee shop in London is like, I'm sorry, where are all the words?
I need more words out of you.
-"We're all the words."
-"We're all the words."
Yeah.
I get a lot of kind of, like, people just telling me to hurry up in this.
Yeah, because you just want to take your time and say, how are you?
Yeah.
How are you doing?
You good?
Yeah, what a beautiful day today.
What?
Aren't we lucky?
Aren't we lucky to have coffee?
My son's got a point.
Let's talk about industry.
You are fantastic in this series, buddy.
You've gotten rave reviews.
Congratulations.
Well deserved.
I don't want to give too much away for fans who aren't caught up yet on Season 4, but what can we say that's happening on Season 4?
I'm naked about 90% of the time.
You are, by the way.
I'm really glad I got that reaction.
Yeah, what if you got just silence?
No, I'm naked a lot.
Why are you?
I don't know.
I think it was, again, entirely my own fault.
How do you get into these situations?
Well, in season three, like, my character has some, like, kinks.
Yeah.
And in season three, they kind of, they came up to me and they went, look, you okay with this?
We think your character is going to get, well, get peed on.
And I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll do anything.
I'll do anything.
And I saw their faces just, like, change.
Anything?
And now in season four, I'm, like, doing all the things.
And it's very rare I'm dressed.
Wow.
They're really going for it this time.
No, it's a great show.
You are very good in this.
I will tell everyone that industry is renewed for a fifth and final season, which is fantastic.
It's a great show.
Do we know if you're going to be in Season 5?
I don't know yet.
I've left all doors open, and we'll see.
Like, I think they're excellent writers.
It's an excellent show.
Yeah, it really is.
And I'm really chuffed.
It's gone for a fifth and I, you know, I think if it was the right story, I'd definitely be in it, but we'll see.
All right, I want to show everyone a clip.
Here's Kit Harington in Season 4 of Industry.
Take a look.
I'm your leverage.
I'm the guy you hide behind or trade away.
You know, there is dignity to knowing your place.
You forfeited that.
But in your pathetic, self-serving roadmap, you didn't account for one thing.
My place.
And what I think of this embarrassment.
You think I've become this for you, even for a moment?
Guys, shut up!
You were born a disgusting mooch, and you will die a disgusting mooch.
So your poor boy civilian document, because you know what, old boy?
If you have to reach for something, then you've already missed it.
Come on now!
Yeah!
You kidding me, bud?
That's how you do it!
Keith Harrington, everybody!
All four seasons of Industry are streaming now on HBO Max.
We're talking with Hilary Duff when we come back.
Stick around, everybody.
