Meryl Streep, Mark Ruffalo and James McAvoy have attended “The Graham Norton Show” in a taped appearance that aired yesterday night in the United Kingdom. Fresh off the London premiere for “Into the Woods”, Meryl talked about the film, some often-told stories (her “King Kong” audition) and shared a funny story on her first Golden Globe appearance in 1980. This was a surprise to hear as I was certain she hasn’t attended the ceremony until 1989 (hence the lack of pictures from any previous appearances), but maybe her story gives a good explanation why she didn’t want to have her picture taken back in 1980. The full appearance has been added to the video archive. It’s split in two parts due to its length, the second part can be watched here. Additionally, screencaptures from the show have been added as well.

Lots of new video clips have been added to the archive, all being released over the past days to promote “Into the Woods” in the United Kingdom. There’s a new promotional interview, tv reports on Lorraine and BBC Breakfast and a new featurette entitled “The Magic of the Woods”. And you gotta love Entertainment Tonight for digging through their archives and screening some vintage interviews with Meryl at various Golden Globe ceremonies. In case you’ve ever wondered if Mary Hart’s remark on Meryl whipping out a flask was true, they got their proof – just watch her interview at the red carpet at the 2000 Golden Globe Awards.

Edit: More clips, including a lenghty press junket interview and a segment with E! Entertainment, have been added to the video archive as well. Yesterday, ABC aired their World News Tonight segment on “Into the Woods”, featuring an interview with Meryl on the streets of New York, and joined by her co-stars for a conversation about the film. It looks like this is only an apetizer since the cast will be featured on Nightline next week. The full video as well as screencaptures can be found in the archives. Many thanks to Glenn for the heads-up.
