Paul Rudd pranked by Olivia Colman live on BBC radio show: “I’m Sweating, I’m Actually Sweating”

Olivia Colman who was listening to the show live and emailed the host of the show, Greg James to request that she play a prank on her friend.

Oliver posed as his final caller and, putting on her best Welsh accent, proceeded to roast Rudd for not getting in contact with her on his trip to the UK.

“I’m a huge fan. I wanted to pick your brains, so what would you do if you had a really good mate? Like, you know, for over 20 years. You’ve known each other for almost half your life. And then, this friend, he doesn’t live in England but he’s come to England and he hasn’t told you about it. And then, not only has he not told you about it, he’s come on to a radio show. What would you do?”

“Oh my god,” Rudd responded, smelling a ruse. “Oh no.”

“Would you be offended?” Colman asked.

“Personally, if it’s me, absolutely not. I tend to give everybody the benefit of the doubt,” he laughed. “Oh god, what have I done?” He later added: “I’m sweating, I’m actually sweating.”
