Er no, Steve and Hugh were not room mates at college lol They both attended Cambridge University yes but didnt meet each other until Stephen Fry met Emma Thompson who knew Hugh Laurie and each other were introduced. All of them being involved in a student revue called Cambridge Circus that John Cleese and Graham Chapamn had been in too High Laurie was busy trying to write a funny song one day and Stepehen came along and started helping him and thats when they gelled. The rest ofcourse is history
Are you sure they did anti-smoking sketches? Stephen Fry was for years a keen smoker of cigarettes, pipes and cigars. He's a non-smoker now, but still a defender of smokers' rights.
I think thats part of the charm of the two of them together, they both have such lovable attributes that make them blend together and make them so equally lovable that you can't possibly choose! :)
yup.....though i am sure most Stephen Fry fans would shudder at the thought of Fry being simply regarded as the shrink from bones as his attributes go much deeper than that. He's one of the most beloved men from Britain.... (despite the fact he has a bit of Hungarian in him!)
hahaha...nice. his willingness to play the fool shows how talented he really is. not too many actors would be comfortable portraying themselves as idiots.
and only then can they can turn their careers around and play geniuses... :)
I love them, this is the best couple of comedians it hurts that these persons, don`t act in the same show, but every people remember at hugh for House and forgive the guests in other projects like stuar little or 101 dalmatians, and in the case for Fry the acting in V for vendetta
I knew it, but most people don´t know that and i say that it hurts because A bit of Fry and laurie was an wonderfull comedy and actually not exist an similiar show except snl or 30 rock
Goodness, they did a lot of adverts. They must really, really like money a whole lot.

Why do I feel the sudden urge to start smoking? Awesome duo but a real bad product to advertise.

"it hurts that these persons, don`t act in the same show"
I'm not sure if you're talking exclusively about the present or not.
If not, then you'll be glad to know that they have acted together in the past. In fact, there was a whole show called "A bit of Fry and Laurie".
If you were talking about the present.. then I'm afraid not.
