@ufewl Naw, that was classic schumacher all over from back then. The "French Twat" thing was probably done to generalise the whole thing, make it more about the situation than any specific personality. Plus it's a standard Fry line from then, like "arseing well".

I'll never understand why we persist with the delusion that sportsmen give interesting interviews. They have nothing enlightening to articulate - ever - not even about their own field of knowledge.
@TheConciseStatement Blame the interviewers always asking loaded questions. For example, Paul Scholes gave a rare interview this week, he was asked:
"It looked a really competitive game, was it?"
"it must give you a sense of satisfaction though [to win]"
"how much do you still enjoy?"
"is there a new determination at the club?"
Can you imagine him saying "no I hate football I'm disappointed we won today"? I'm sure he's capable of a perspicacious answer if asked the right question.
@TheConciseStatement Only some sports. True for footballers (inarticulate due to being chavs) rugger buggers (inarticulate due to over-muscled neck crushing the larynx) and golfers (boring OAPs), cricketers (nonces), all martial artists (gorillas) tennis players, and of course, drivers. Long distance runners, some road bikers, swimmers, rock climbers and triathletes however are generally intelligent and eloquent, and occasionally insightful.
@sgddfgfghfgh well of course i can see it's not schumacher, it's laurie!! and to his right our national treasure stephen fry. it was on the "bit of fry and laurie" thing years ago
@BTEXPRESS1000 Yeah, he predicted Kimi Räikkönen's character decade earlier.He's exactly like that in f1, That's why they call him ice man and he's scandinavian.North europeans are known for not showing their emotions well.
Get what you mean- but lets be fair here- everybody talks like this now- all sportspeople- no-one says anything worth hearing much anymore- don't give anything away , don't offend any sponsors etc.- I miss Eddie Irvine!!
Fry actually has said this is the only time when he actually connected, so he really is hitting Hugh, and quite hard he said. So that's genuine surprise on his face!
He talks about it in a show he did called "Guilty" where he discusses his guilty pleasures, like ABBA and Howard's Way. It used to be on YouTube, but it got taken down. You could probably find it on BitTorrent, it is a wonderful show!
I thought it was meant to be Schumacher at first as well, with the red racing jumpsuit and the name of 'Michael'. But this sketch was made before he signed for Ferrari so I think it's just a big coincidence that seems to work quite well!
lol yeah... Stephen talks about it in 50 Not Out. He felt so bad. He talks about the look Hugh had on his face! Shock. LOL. Poor Hugh. Sorry for laughing!
i heared that that was a real punch by fry and that the astonished look on his face afterwards was not him acting - he thought he really hurt laurie... =/ nvm, classic sketch =) 'you can have as much sex as you can eat...'
Lol, I read all the comments concerning Fry really hitting Laurie and I had to watch it again to see for myself. HE REALLY DID! HAHAHAAA! Poor guy, lol. or, guys.
its kind of a balance though isnt it... that F1 drivers r only as content as an average person doing a deskjob inside a crummy office... but only those ppl that get no satisfaction from pretty much the best job in the world can b good at it =/
He does, but man does he keep his composure! Like it's all part of the plan. This makes me wonder how many other times they included impros into their sketches.
But he really does hit Lauire hard - the man literally falls!
the sketch is legendary but I bet Hugh remembers it for other reasons, lol! Steven actually hit him!!!! Just look at the expression on his face after he realized what he did...they are sooooo good!
This is the funniest thing I have ever seen. i must have watched this 100x no kidding!! Watch Hugh's face when Steve yells at him loudly and he looks into the camera, ita classic. OMGoodness, I love this, the are geniuses!!
