Swedish Press
Craig Ferguson‘s recent conversation with actress Malin Ã…ckerman made headlines in a Swedish newspaper, as @alexndrs discovered. The quote, which refers to Swedish television personalities Filip Hammar and Fredrik Wikingsson (who once made a brief appearance on the Late Late Show) translates roughly as:

“They’ve traveled a lot back and forth to LA. They are really funny and good at fitting furniture.” Malin Ã…kerman reveals during her visit with Craig Ferguson that Filip and Fredrik, who just commented on the live broadcast of the Oscars for Swedish viewers, are her favorite show hosts in Sweden.

Thanks to the RSA’s @bgrhubarb for spotting the tweet.

Silent Movie
In case you missed Craig’s silent movie on Monday’s show featuring Alex and Bridger, here is another look. And to those smart-alacks who pointed out that it’s not really a silent movie because Craig speaks at the end… that was part of the joke!
