This Is How Michael Caine Speaks: Steve Coogan & Rob Brydon Compare Impressions (VIDEO)


First Posted: 11/09/10 01:12 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:10 PM ET

How can one not love Michael Caine? From "Alfie", to "Hannah and Her Sisters", to "The Dark Knight", the British actor has been a stalwart of the screen for a lifetime. But for almost as long, his distinct Cockney accent has been lampooned by would-be comedians on both sides of the Atlantic, mostly inaccurately.

But in this clip from the BBC2 comedy series "The Trip," English comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon take impersonating the vocal mannerisms of the actor to a whole new level. Both intent on topping the other's Caine mimicking, Coogan and Brydon each deliver yet another brilliant comedic performance. Check out the clip for a hilarious tour-de-force of Michael Caine's voice's career.

Jude Law is impersonating Caine's entire career. Can't wait for his remake of "The Hand".

First guy wins.

Second guy started a comeback, but first guy nailed it right off the bat.

That's bloody brilliant. I have to say they both sounded wonderful, but I think Steve Coogan was tops.
