If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too;

Thanks for answering! Was there an interview with Robert and Sheridan Morley before and after the reading? If so, do you ever plan to upload it?

It's from the Parkinson Show. And yes his son was sat next to him.

Robert Morley is excellent as usual in the clip. For another good performance, see him earlier in his career as Louis XVI in "Marie Antoinette." When was this version of "If" filmed and what program is this? Also, is his real life son (Sheridan Morley)sitting next to him?

I know I'll be hated for this, but I like Hopper's version better, because it is lacking. British people read great poetry, but because its read so well it loses meaning to me. I don't know, I just feel like this is the kind of poem that is better delivered flatly and in a kind tired state, as Hopper does.

the best recitation of IF on youtube even Dennis Hoppers version seems flat after viewing this
