Fry & Laurie - European Deal

[AdobeExcel]

Thank goodness I watched and became familiar with Laurie's comedic exploits before I ever did touch House. I would've gotten a shock (like a lot of American viewers) if I'd seen this after watching him as Dr House for 7 seasons.

[HulloKat]

That poor man in the front row! He looked terrified! 

[mackeymkay]

*SLAP!* Fat...knob!

Sounds like a deaf-mute saying it.

[ImagineMarvelous]

im crying omg tea almost went up my nose!

[GarnetBering93]

"..fatcock..."

[smaloreno]

this reminds me a lot of the movie Lost in Translation (which obviously came out much later).

[pathofdalliance]

I think i need to work the phrase 'you really are cruising for a brusing' into my daily life.

[joshopsho]

Sounds Luxembourgish?

[whowantsabighug]

@joshopsho Nah, it's Swiss,maybe Belgian.

[lhawes92]

@joshopsho It's an invented language they first used in a radio show some years before. Search "It's Easy to talk Strom"

[ConnorFGuitar]

Te.

[cameleopard42]

I wonder how one would say "My lower intestine if full of spam" in that language.

[EmmyNeander]

"That's right, time, the old enemy..." "Oh shut up!" :D

[joshaf26]

Er, is it "Caribanerchief"?

[FarfetchdForDinner]

5:16 SLENDERMAN!

[DragonBleu01]

@FarfetchdForDinner He has not tentacles. XD

[gabumonfanclubx]

How Stephen Fry says "yes" at 2:32 is hilarious. In my opinion hes the one who makes all the videos really funny.(He's the best actor) Hugh Laurie's funny too though.

[LeftyHandedGuns]

For some reason, 6:20 when he kicks Hugh is my giggling trigger.

[Sindagon2]

4:00 sorry

[Sindagon2]

ADIDAS @ 4:01 lolz

[joshaf26]

Hugh gets hit an awful lot on this show. No wonder he started taking Vicodin!

[PurposefulPawn]

British humor is best! i'we seen just fry and laurie's sketches and they are brilliant! hugh is a best comedy actor in the world!

[CosmiconOne]

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

[spickinpower]

After all, rooms spend a lot of their time being empty, don't they?

[newmansman]

at 5:00 theres a naked personm walking around backstage

[Pseudologic]

- Hintie peerpepula?

- Fat cock.

[Pseudologic]

Wop, bum bum bum bum bum bum bum.

[ultimateSpagety]

It seems Hugh Laurie got punched or hit a lot in this show.

[MisaMumintroll]

It's really graet, but I think the trxt on the screen was a bit overdoing it...

[OmgRockOut]

"You really are cruising for a bruising!"

Stephen?!?! Is that you??!?!

[SiriusPunk]

1:28 Fatcock xD

[WomaninBlack215]

"There's no sense in which 'price' means exploding vest."

I have to say this....Katie Price, perhaps?

[FastMonkeyBluePants]

This is my favourite comment on youtube. Ever.

[Bigfatbutterfly02]

from 6:07 it could also have been really good sex

[fampie2008]

When Steven Fry said "cruising for a bruising" for some reason it reminded me of "Some mothers do 'ave 'em"

[crazypianolady]

If I met someone with Fry's voice, it would be so annoying!

[XxNoEl4EvErxX]

his voice in this sketch is EXACTLY the same as one o four supply teachers ! we call her swedish meatball :P XD i just want to hit her evrytime she says something

[DeathSlayer2]

What's wrong with you? Why do you want to hit her because of her accent?

You shouldn't be calling her names.

Supply teachers don't know anything about you, you should be pretending to be deaf or that you have taurettes or something. Much more fun :D

[Scrumdiddly42]

wop bum bum bum bum bum bum bum...

[PatRibsey]

It's amazing how few americans know that Dr. House is an Englishman with a Rich comedy legacy!

[splitter123123]

True, I still think of Prince George when I look at him.

[Eilatj]

It's because they think that all good things ARE American...=)

[coldpawofthefurs]

@PatRibsey Uh, no. most of us know it. I still find it funny that he spent all that time and effort insulting America and then came here to make millions of dollars.

[WasLilChrisnowbigish]

@coldpawofthefurs

when has fry and laurie ever inuslted america?

[Misishaxi]

@coldpawofthefurs He insults both nations. He never meant to say "oh, Americva is shit" he just mocked customs, habits and attitudes from America. he did the same for Britian quite a lot. There's a difference between mocking, and then genuinely trying to insult.

[EnormousHuntBall]

stiuhaha babilan

[arseman1024]

Excuse me, I have to go and do a long term contract....

[ALICECOOPERFANATIC]

this is awesome!! :)

[merdufer]

"it means price in the sense of 'exploding vest'"XD

[wwMyHughLaurieww]

this is one of my favorite sketch

fry and laurie the BEST <3!

[fampie2008]

I know their my favourite comedians and this sketch is great, I love the bit with the camera having a look around

[freshdarkstar]

after all rooms spend most of their time empty, don they? hehe!

[thatdrattedcat]

Who on earth was that streaker?

[scandowegianpean]

fat cock.. LOL They were so naughty. I'm so glad they weren't cut by the censors.

[Speednik]

That pales alongside series 1's "Ted Cunterblast"

[hodito666]

long term contract:DD

Oh Dear :DD

[Asarelah]

I like how their feet are flying up in the big fight at the end.

[ALICECOOPERFANATIC]

that is my favorite type of comedy, when you can hear whats going on but you can't see it, except for flying limbs, random items, clothes, etc

[fryfan20]

long term contract :D

poor Hugh but he gets hit so well :)

oh, dear

[Ladyspock]

best fight scene ever!!

[silvastomp]

LOL @ the start

[doodlebop733]

OW! ha ha

[LewisQ]

Not their best sketch, but Stephen's accent is amusing. Is he trying to sound like Frank Spencer or is that just an unfortunate by-product?

[hungh0rse]

brilliant prospect from a meta-level. the word "bit" in "a bit of fry & laurie" is probably based on the german idiom "das gewisse etwas"

[Slapbass13]

One of the funniest ones!

[GTXanatos13]

Exploding vest.

[seinok108]

big soft brown eyes and antlings :-)

Great fight!

[monstrouscarbuncle]

I think the sentence "Whopp bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum" should be pronounced as a question.

[houserox13]

OW!

[houserox13]

It sucks that Hugh is the one that always get hit. :( but it's funny.

like = mapifanholokwakabaum yelimastamin instigog tratter.

to tie up a far-reaching European deal with your company = tay

lmfao, I laughed so hard that i fell out of my chair and i was crying!

[PhoenixSparrow]

XD he enjoys it! he said so during Stephen Fry - 50 Not Out

[theoneandonlypiper]

Is the shy git a plant or an actual audience member?

[PhoenixSparrow]

Plant, I should think. The subtitles must have been visible on monitors for the audiences benefit so they must have worked it out beforehand.

[Yettobefamous]

The poor git looked so humiliated. Or in Strom: O makhi takhtilan bum bum bum yeli mastaman insigob trata. (I hope Mr.Fry doesn't read this)

[KapernicusI]

Laurie got his own back for once!

[MakiTasui]

--STOP HITTING HIM, YOU-- you... --YOU NOT-GOOD ASS MOTHER LIKER!!

omg when did this happen? xD lol *watches it again*

so funny!! xDD

[ossiacadenza]

Superb depiction of the misunderstanding different languages can cause and pointing out that in some languages 10 words can mean 1 in another, exaggerated here of course for comedic effect but well thought out sketch.SAKE!!!!

[BelatedCommiseration]

Yeah! I was trying to remember what Stephen Frys own language was called...I think he used to have a radio show that used to feature large segments entirely devoted to strom. Nice to clear that up. People always think of Fry and Laurie as just tradtional types of sketch writers, but that bit when they left the scene altogether is quite innovative really.

[TSRule]

Strom rocks!

[mosternina]

This is so funny! Loving the STROM!

[lonesomeflower]

Oh my god Stephen... hahaha

[non2002]

What language is Stephen speaking? Or is a load of tosh?

[TSRule]

It's his own language, I think. It's called Strom.

[oywiththenames]

he gets hit so well...

[syrovision]

hahaha how good is the naked guy!
