For some reason, this little sketch which probably too kvery little time to create or think up compared to their usual fare, makes me laugh the hardest. Something about the serene, mundane and ordinary manner combined with the subtle insertion of the ludicrous, the absurd and the bizarre.
I may be American, but I can't deny how much I absolutely LOVE Stephen Fry's peculiar alterations of the English language. His diction always seems to be a little unorthodox, and yet, he still manages to articulate it so well. Kudos for Fry C^=

Yesterday was my birthday! I won't tell you which because I hate you! I celebrated it in fine style, in a company of a cold bottle of Chablis... and a couple of prostitutes!!!! ahahahahah! what a marvellous pun!
"Advisalments"! This show is such absolute, wonderful, glorious nonsense. I wish they'd air it on BBC America. Everyone in my country needs to know how adorable Stephen Fry is.
Sorry, this wasn't meant as an insult. I've been brought up in England, but have spent a sizeable amount of time in the USA to know that their sense of humour is different. Pleased to see that at least one American appreciates Fry, not just Laurie.
I'm in love with these men...but alas one is a homosexual and the other would be charged with statutory rape if anything happened. Who says one can't dream though?
'i celebrated it in fine style in the company of a cold bottle of chabley and a couple of prostiuites' (hugh turns round to the camera slowly) pmsl!!!!
"...my mother told me in this life I could be either an elf or a pixie," Why do I see Stephen in my head as a little elf? That makes it even more funnier... I have a weird sense of humor.
I can't believe you CARE that Stephen Fry is fat. That's so beyond irrelevant. And you couldn't have possibly just called Hugh Laurie old, and incapable of humor. Have you just missed watching House? I mean, SERIOUSLY. 48 is not old. 80, is old. Still wouldn't prevent him from being funny.
I disagree if weight and age would have any effect on their comical genius. I'm optimistic about the two working together again, Stephen Fry will surely guest star on House.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Even if they were to come together and make some comedy they would probably be to old, and i noticed Stephen has become pretty fat,at least compared to his appearence here.
Thankyou so much for posting all of these clips! THey're just soooo unny and I agree Hugh's look is preiceless as is Steven's 'because I hate you!' All I need to cheer me up on a bad day is these two! I wish they'd do something together again!

Those it really matter if Stephen Fry is a bit large?
No, he is as great as ever and I admire him just as much as when he was slim.
I doubt it has had any effect on his talent.

Fry was seated at Laurie's table during the Golden Globes ceremony a year or two ago, so I expect them to do something together sooner or later.
