Well lol, if Hugh's character never had sexual intercourse with his wife, that means the kid isn't his. God this show is awesome. I love Hugh and Fry, especially Fry. <3
LOVE british comedy..this is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen and I'm originally from NY. However, Fry...make up your mind about the hair. I like how on House Laurie has Black Adder on his TIVO...rather self-indulging eh? LOL.
If you find the episode called Haircut that's on here, Fry drops a cloth on his foot near the beginning and you do actually see Laurie giggle at him =]
doctor who hasn't been going no-stop since the 60s - there was a huge gap between the old series and the newer series. I think these guys did 4 seasons, but not all in consecutive years.
10 years is easily possibly - Doctor Who's been running since the 60's, Last of the Summer Wine since 1973 and Eastenders since 1985, not to mention all of the other old shows we've got that are still going strong. But ABOFAL only ran from 1989 to 1995, and the pilot's from 1987, so it didn't run all that long unfortunately.
Brilliant. Thank you so much for posting this first ep of A bit of fry and laurie - thanks to all who take the time to share all things fry and laurie
AH I use so many sayings from this and I forgot where I got them from!! "Chief amongst them being?" XD "Well I don't actually call MYSELF a school"... all that. Hehehehe...
This is very interesting, if only for the fact it's a recording of the original broadcast of the episode on BBC2.

@SiriusPunk "corpse" in this context means to lose it while trying to act/stay in character; basically, check them out both trying not to laugh!
