You probably know this Tom but, it says that the video is not currently available in some countries. I think you can only watch it in the US. I doubt theres another version of this interview available on the internet at the moment anyway.

Thanks but Hitchens does not appear on any of the episodes on that link

You're right. I don't understand why not. It says it's the June 8th episode. And indeed it appears to be. But no Hitch...

I don't get it.

Can't you watch thedailyshow.com everywhere?. It is also available as a torrent to download. I did that and uploaded it on YouTube and they gave me a copyright warning to my surprise. Not a strike, just a warning so I deleted it.

maybe 4 always takes the previous days episode. So on June 8 they would have shown the June 7th episode and maybe tomorow will be the June 8th episode.

In the daily hitch news feed on the left, there's a link to huffpost which has the video embedded as well.
Same as this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/09/christopher-hitchens-on-t_n_605874.html

modify headers plugin lets you watch them, otherwise you can't from uk, its easy to install. but yea more4 shows them the day after too.

Click on the "June 9th" episode on channel 4 (UK) and you'll find the episode with the Hitch.

You can watch it through the Channel Four link, but since all programmes are screened in UK with a delay of one day, you have to watch the June 9 boradcast to see the june 8 one on which Hitch appears

The day of this interview with Jon Stewart on the Daily Show was the day Hitchens found out he probably had cancer. (June 8, 2010) He decided to follow through on this engagement despite the terrible news. When Stewart asks him how he is, Hitchen replies, "I don't know. It's too early to tell." That and the subsequent discussion of his "death" is very chilling in retrospect.
