:thankyou: for all the clips, links and screencaps mayfrayn.

I think we will be getting it tomorrow. I'm working at the moment so haven't had time to check the recorder.

It's great to see Orlando, but he does look tired.

Love the story about the glacier. That must be so incredible to do something like that. I've climbed to the top of a huge hill and just sat there in the peace, looking down at the world below, but that must be such an awesome experience.

Thanks again.

LoisKent - October 25, 2007 11:08 AM (GMT)

Thanks for this mayfrayn! Nice treat! You made my day! :thumb: (and it iiiis sooooo long and cold)

Wow it's uncanny! Orlando and Sebastian look a lot alike here! :twitch:

I love when Orlando is serious, this guy is an angel :wub:

Is it a "sneak peek" ? and tonight (in USA) will it be shown the full show ? :pray:

Possibly Loiskent, but at the moment I'm really not sure.

If someone from the US has watched this, can you help us out? Sorry, to be so vague but I'm having one heck of a day today and haven't had time to check everything out. My recorder should have today's UK 10am show, I should imagine they will say if there is more tomorrow.

Sorry!

libra - October 25, 2007 12:45 PM (GMT)

Larry King did come on at 8 pm, but he was mostly talking about the raging California fires and how everyone is helping and coping. I shut it off at 9 so with my luck he came on after that. Ben Affleck is on, but the fires in California is a real crisis here so that may pre-empt anything else that was scheduled. Who knows.

libra - October 25, 2007 12:52 PM (GMT)

Sorry again for the double post but I checked his site and the fires in California is still scheduled for tonight. He is normally on 8 pm (that is Pacific time for the folks not in the US),and if you are in the UK, that's 8 hours ahead of us.

He has a section of his site that has transcripts of the shows. Last night's show was totally dedicated to the fires in California and there is no transcript of Orlando on it.

Tonight is again at 8 - as a special time and the time is as follows:

California's still burning...it's the land of heartbreak and hope. Will the fires ever end?

There is now nothing on his site for Orlando or the other guests to appear, let alone his interview with Ben Affleck.

LoisKent - October 25, 2007 05:30 PM (GMT)

Thank you girls :friends:

Well, we'll see ... :rolleyes: The California fires are a much more important issue right now. I've watched some of the French news about those and it is just ... horrific, horrible. Maybe they will show the things about Orlando and Antarctica some time later. The only problem for you will be not to miss it. :unsure:

By the way, I've made a transcript of Orlando's speech (I've tried to ^^) - 'cause I love transcripts :smoke: (and fingers crossed that it will be on tonight :unsure:)

But some words are missing and maybe some are wrong :wacko: so ... fooorgive and correct me please !

Larry King : What drew you to this project ?

Orlando Bloom : Oh to be honest, I've ... My cousin has been a great activist for the environment for many years and for about 6 years now, he's been, we've been talking about it, and he was going on this trip down in Antartica.
I was fascinated to go down and see this, you know, majestic, environment for myself and really see first hand what was at stake.

When we talk about the environment, I think it can feel so far away from all of us and I wanted to be there first hand to see exactly what is going on.

We made one trip, landfall trip where we climbed this Glacier in Port Foyne.

It was an incredible trek up, you know, I mean there are crevasses that you have to navigate around that can be anything from twenty feet to two hundred feet-deep.

We got to the top and it was just, it was breathtakingly quiet and the view was phenomenal. You could see what felt like the edge of the earth, you know, it's just when, you're standing at the top of the glacier, like this, you just feel so humbled and so human and so ... so little in this great landscape.

And when you think about how is easy it is for us to overlook the importance of that, of that place and what it's doing for all our lives to live in.

I mean, you know, there's fires raging in LA right now, in London last year, there was an hurricane took out 4 houses in North London.

We don't get tornados in North London, it was a tornado, I'm sorry, and you know it's just there's a water crisis happening in Atlanta right now as well which is all happening.

It's easy for us to sit back and think somebody else will take care of it but really just little things we can each do, each of us do, just to make a step in a direction of being aware socially and consciously aware environment, whether it's as small as turning off your mobile phone chargers or using the energy efficient light bulbs or just thinking about, you know just making one step to living a more greener, thinking in a greener way, anything can help you know.

PHEW ! :hot:

Jesse - October 25, 2007 07:16 PM (GMT)

Libra, thank you so much for helping out. It's 8.15pm and I'm only just finding the time to relax. :wacko:

Loiskent I'll check your transcript for you in a moment. You've done an amazing job with this. Thank you so much. :friends:

ETA: All edited for you! :flirt: Just one thing, I couldn't catch the name of the place he mentioned, but I'll try and find out.

Jesse - October 25, 2007 09:00 PM (GMT)

Got the name of the place where Orlando climbed the Glacier - it's Port Foyne. :)

libra - October 25, 2007 09:10 PM (GMT)

Hi Mayfrayn

I see it has changed to having the Affleck brothers along with Orlando and Sebastian. I wonder if it is the same thing that you posted earlier today?

Priestess - October 26, 2007 11:51 AM (GMT)

Orlando looked unbelievably gorgeous in this interview. It was hard to concentrate on what he was actually saying. And Sebastian looks great! He looks very sauve in his suit with his dark hair.

libra - October 26, 2007 12:19 PM (GMT)

I seen the first hour was once again about the fires. I feel so badly for those who lost all, and so angry at learning that arsons intentionally did this vicious act. But, before I go off topic, did they eventually come on? I went to bed at 9.

Jesse - October 26, 2007 02:33 PM (GMT)

I've got our version on the hard-drive. I haven't checked it yet! :rolleyes:

wannabe - October 26, 2007 03:30 PM (GMT)

mayfrayn - October 29, 2007 11:06 PM (GMT)

According with CCN website, it seems that Orlando will be on Larry King Live on Friday show, November 2nd

Excellent! :thankyou: mayfrayn. We've all been waiting for this.

Unfortunately I'm away over the weekend. I'll check to see when it shows in the UK then I can grab it. :D

Wicksey - October 30, 2007 02:56 AM (GMT)

Thanks much mayfrayn. I've been keeping my eyes peeled the whole weekend with no luck. I can relax now.

libra - October 30, 2007 03:20 AM (GMT)

Woo Hoo! Great news!

With Ben Affleck and only him, wonder if it will be a more indepth interview. I hope he talks about his next project. He was at UCLA watching Ian McKellen playing King Lear. Maybe his next role is something Shakespearean. He's got the legs for it.

A Horse A Horse - My Kingdom for a Horse.

Oops, wrong play! :angel:

As glorious to this night, being o'er my head

And sails upon the bosom of the air.

O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?

This defines Orlando doesn't it?

What a piece of work is man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals! "

And, I can just hear him saying this with that devilish smile on his face.

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks".

Or in a very sexy scene

"This is the very ecstasy of love".

The only bad thing in Hamlet is that he would die at the end. :sob

QUOTE

Interview with Orlando Bloom and Sebastian Copeland

Aired November 2, 2007 - 21:00 ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

LARRY KING, HOST:And one of Hollywood's hottest actors, Orlando Bloom.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ORLANDO BLOOM, ACTOR, ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST: It's not like anywhere in the world.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: Goes to the ends of the Earth for a real life cause -- global warming.

Larry. KING:And when we come back, actor Orlando Bloom. Why did the movie star go to the end of the Earth and brave a sub-zero wilderness. You will find out next on LARRY KING LIVE.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ORLANDO BLOOM, ACTOR: We got to the top and it was just, it was breathtakingly quiet and the view was phenomenal. You could see from what felt like the edge of the Earth.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: Welcome back to LARRY KING LIVE. It's now a great pleasure to welcome Orlando Bloom. He's in Los Angeles. A noted actor, who by the way, traveled to Antarctica. That's our subject for the remainder of the show tonight. He went there earlier this year to examine the effects of global warming first hand.

And here in New York is Sebastian Copeland, the acclaimed photographer and environmental advocate who serves on the board of directors of Global Green USA. His photographs are seen in the stunning new book, "Antarctica" -- there you see, it's cover --"The Global Warning". He's also, by the way, Orlando Bloom's cousin. That adds fire to the fire here, if there is such an expression.

This book, by the way, will get its official opening at the United Nations. What --how did -- what lead to this Sebastian?

SEBASTIAN COPELAND, PHOTOGRAPHER, ENVIRONMENT ACTIVIST: Well, I've been working with an organization called Global Green USA for about a decade now. And we -- I took a trip to the Arctic in 2005 to raise awareness on behalf of the Inuit, and essentially put a face to climate change. And on that trip we, you know, we created an image which was an aerial image utilizing thousand of Inuit kids, and positioned them on the ice so that their bodies would spell a message. And my friend John Quigley who is an aerial artists put that together. And we decided to echo the message that we created in the north, to the south.

KING: When you went did you know there would be a book?

COPELAND: No, absolutely not. I went down to Antarctica to create another image, essentially by taking the crew members from the ship and putting them on an iceberg and using their bodies to spell the letters SOS and shooting it from the sky or from the mast of the ship. And the experience that I had while I was down there, shooting, was so incredible. And as a photographer I kept shooting and I came back with work that I thought was interesting enough to go back.

KING: Extraordinary. We're showing pages of it to the viewers. The forward, by the way, to this book is by Mikhail Gorbachev and the preface by Leonardo DeCaprio.

Orlando, what drew you to this?

ORLANDO BLOOM, ACTOR, ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST: I'm sorry, say that again, Larry?

KING: What drew you to this project?

BLOOM: Oh, to be honest, I've -- my cousin has been a great activist for the environment for many years. And for about six years now he's been -- we've been talking about it. And he was going on this trip down to Antarctica and I was fascinated to go down and see this majestic environment for myself. And really see first hand what was at stake. You know, when we talk about the environment I think it can feel so far away from all of us. And I wanted to be there first hand to see exactly what was going on.

KING: What surprised you?

BLOOM: You know the size, the majestic kind of quality of that environment, and yet, the fragility of it, really. It felt incredibly fragile. I mean, this is an environment that it's full of life. You know, in the water -- we were on a science research boat. There were like 47 of us. And it was a very close quarters kind of environment on the boat, but around us this incredible environment full of life. Teeming with, you know, whether it was penguins or seals, or whales, it was an incredible environment. And yet it just felt so fragile, you know. When you look at specifically what's happening in the world today, it felt incredibly dangerous, you know, in terms of where it could go from now. It could be gone.

KING: Anything, Orlando, like the terrain of say, New Zealand, when you did "Lord of The Rings"?

BLOOM: No, I can't say I can compare it to any landscape I've ever been before, Larry. No, it was something unlike anything I've ever experienced. I feel incredibly blessed to have been there really. You know, it's not like anywhere in the world.

KING: What was it like for you Sebastian? Is it like anywhere else for you?

COPELAND: No, it's completely unique. I mean, Antarctica yields a landscape that is so otherworldly. And it's really extraordinary because humans have never been -- there has never been any indigenous population in Antarctica. And when you enter this environment that is so vast and so powerful you really get to understand the relationship of humans, humanity to nature. And that is that we're just one part of it. You know, we're part -- we're one in 30 million species on this planet. And it sort of puts everything in perspective a little bit.

KING: How do you get there?

COPELAND: By ship. You could get by -- you could get there by Army planes, but most people get there by ship. And that can be a pretty daunting experience. It has to be for the everted (ph).

KING: You sailed out of where? COPELAND: We sailed out of Ushuaia, in the southern tip of Patagonia. You can sail from New Zealand as well, or South Africa. But typically most of tourist come through Ushuaia. And you come across the Drake Passage, which is pretty wretched body of water.

KING: We'll be right back with Orlando Bloom and Sebastian Copeland. The book is "Antarctica". Now available. Don't go away.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

BLOOM: When we arrived in Antarctica I was awed by its beauty and scale.

COPELAND: Nature has a strong way of speaking to one if one listens. It's a very meditative and real communion relationship with the environment.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: We're back with Orlando Bloom and Sebastian Copeland. Orlando in L.A., Sebastian here in New York. The book is "Antarctica", just published. The subtitle is "The Global Warning".

Did this have an effect on you, this trip, Orlando?

BLOOM: Yes, I have to say it was -- I was on this search science research ship for about three weeks and it -- it was -- it was truly a breathtaking experience. I mean, there was no communication with the outside world for three weeks, which is something that, in itself is quite crazy in today's world of technology. But you know, when we -- I mean, there was, we would all have a role to play on the boat. Mine was I was the zodiac driver.

Basically when we would make landfall, so when the boat would come up to a port down -- or somewhere we would stop to go to the land, I would drive the zodiac. I would be ferrying the passengers and people across to the land. And it was just being part of a crew and part of a team of people who felt like breaking new borders and you know, looking at the environment in a way which, you know, I've never experienced before.

KING: What were the, Sebastian, photographic challenges?

COPELAND: Well, the photographic challenge is that you are constantly on a moving vessel and that in itself can be antonymous to landscape photography, which is typically very studied and, you know, you stand there with a tripod, waiting for the perfect light. And in Antarctica there is an ever-changing weather and you're always moving on a ship and you can never control exactly your position. So, you never know whether the chart that you're taking, to begin with is going to yield a better result than the last. Because you're always, you know, out of control. You're not walking.

KING: How cold did it get?

COPELAND: Not so cold in the summer months. I mean, the peninsula has a fairly temperate weather. The temperatures rarely drop below -- below zero, wind chill factor, give or take another 5 or 10 degrees. But in the summer months it's not too bad, and very often above freezing.

KING: Evidences, Orlando, of damage to the environment? Could you see it?

BLOOM: Well, obviously, not having been down to that part of the world before I wouldn't have anything to compare it with. But what really was apparent was what was at stake, you know. It was sort of -- myself and Sebastian would talk about, you know it kind of -- the ice pack, you know, the North and South Pole, they're kind of like the refrigerator of the earth. And you need that to survive. You know, you need your refrigerator at home to keep you, you know, to store food so you can survive. And really that's what you're dealing with here in sort of a layman's terms.

It was, you know, we made one, we made one trip, landfall trip, where we climbed this glacier in Port Foyne (ph), and it was an incredible trek up. You know, I mean, there are crevasses you have to navigate around that can be anything from 20 feet to 200 feet deep. And we got to the top and it was just -- it was breathtakingly quiet. And the view was phenomenal. You could see for what felt like the edge of the Earth. And you know, it just -- when you're standing at the top of a glacier like this, you just feel so humbled and so human and so little in this great landscape. And when you think about what's -- how easy it is for us to overlook the importance of that place and what it's doing for our life, to live in.

I mean, you know, there's fires raging in L.A. right now, and in London last year there was a hurricane that took out four houses in North London. We don't get tornadoes in North London -- it was a tornado, I'm sorry. And I know that there's a water crisis happening in Atlanta right now, as well, which is all happening. And easy for us to sort of sit back and think well somebody else will take care of it.

But really just the little things that we can each do, each of us do, to make a step in that direction, the direction of being aware socially and consciously aware of the environment whether it's, you know, a small as, you know, turning off your mobile phone chargers or using energy efficient light bulbs or just thinking about -- just making that one step to living a more -- a greener, thinking in a greener way. In a way, I think anything can help.

KING: How, Sebastian, did you get Mikhail Gorbachev and Leonardo di Caprio, diverse people ...

COPELAND: Yes.

KING: ... to be involved in this?

COPELAND: Well, Mikhail Gorbachev is a fan of Green Cross International. Global Green USA is the U.S. affiliate to Green Cross International. So I've met President Gorbachev on multiple occasions and he comes and visits the U.S. once or twice a year. So, I approached him through the organization. And he was kind enough to lend it support. Obviously, he's been committed to this issue for a very long time.

And Leonardo is actually a fellow board member of Global Green as well. So we've done quite a bit of work together. We started working doing a pre-Oscar party, about five years ago, for Global Green and Leo was an early supporter of it. So, he's obviously, you know, very well respected in this space, for his commitment.

KING: The book is "Antarctica", back with our remaining moments with Orland Bloom and the brilliant photographer, Sebastian Copeland, right after this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

COPELAND: If you examine how society functions, we really function on - we use power to operate in a cycle that is ultimately not natural.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: We're back.

Orlando, I have to ask, I know you were involved some sort of car crash scene in Los Angeles. Has that been cleared up?

BLOOM: Right.

KING: Were the paparazzi involved in that?

BLOOM: Yeah, it wasn't a very pleasant situation. But yeah, it is all being resolved. And thankfully, you know, everyone involved is safe and making swift recovery. The police and emergency services came remarkably quickly, we were very lucky. Very lucky indeed.

KING: Do you think, Sebastian, we're winning the fight against global warming, or losing? COPELAND: Well, that's a complex question. We're -- obviously, we're entering the dawn of a new awareness, is how I like to define it. We've been very, very reluctant to be accountable for our actions. I mean, we've been taking carbon out of the earth for the last 150 years and pouring 70 million tons of carbon into the air, every 24 hours. And we've done that uncheck for a very long time.

KING: So, you're pessimistic, it would sound.

COPELAND: I think that it's going to take a couple of generations to turn this around. It's a very, very daunting task. But it is really an individual responsibility. And the bottom line is that we all are responsible and we all have to change our ways.

KING: Orlando, what do you think of the book?

BLOOM: Oh, I'm so proud of my cousin. I'm so proud of my cousin. I was just blown away. I was there with him. He was up all the hours, you know, literally, I think he had about four hours sleep a night, because he was up to get the first light, to get the last light, and in the middle of the night. It was, you know, I was there as much as I could to support. But I'm so proud of him. He's created an incredible book. And I think it is one of hope.

You know, I think those images are really full of hope and encouragement. I think that its easy to think of the environment as all doom and gloom and that what can we do, it's too late. And the polar bears are gone and everything is gone. But really just the little steps that we can make, as individuals, make a big difference. And it's really changing consciousness. And thinking, just each of us taking responsibility in a little way. You know, it's -- it's -- I'm so proud of him and I was very happy to be there and be a part of that adventure.

KING: It is, by the way, for our people tuning in, a brilliant book. It's available now. Sebastian Copeland, forward by Gorbachev, preface by DeCaprio, "Antarctica". When you take a picture, do you know what you're going to get? Or do you need to see it developed?

COPELAND: No, typically, well there's a discovery process, of course. Sometimes you discover the pictures when you come home. Even though we're in the age of digital now, you get to enjoy and immediate image of what you have, but it's really --

KING: You know what you're getting most of the time.

COPELAND: Typically, yes. You do. Yes.

KING: Orlando, thank you very much. Continued good fortune.

BLOOM: Thank you, sir.

Sebastian, nothing but the best of luck with this brilliant book.

COPELAND: Thank you, sir.

KING: Sebastian Copeland, Orlando Bloom.
