[pedrosanchez89]

Anyone else see the lamp in the background go up when he hits the table at 8:20?

[gunterdak]

why are there tiny footprints on the blackboard?  Kinda weird, no?

[TheEvilEskimo]

Can any teachers tell me if this has ever happened to them?I just need to know if it has because it isjust too cru-funny

[StayForNJATA]

This is/was my English teacher in male form. My God, it's no wonder I only scraped a C in my Enligh lit/lang exams.

[Mohaukseven]

I had to stop watching because it was so painfully familiar!

[fourplusseven]

This is too near the truth to be funny. This is what teachers are like. This is why kids are thick. :)

[quimsolls1]

pretty sure this is a film of my literature lecture last tuesday. yup, definitely is.

[MrBenjalo]

This is my AS Level Literature teacher. It has to be

[vfr172]

omw, this is my english class......

[KairuHakubi]

why left channel only?

[EmmyNeander]

A teacher's nightmare.

[Wolfgetshigh]

@EmmyNeander Not his apparently :D

[Komalantz]

It's so good it make me cry.

[LouisLambert]

LOL drink sick

[TAfan2]

I literally almost pissed my pants at the second sketch...... xDDDDDDDDD

[brokenxstitches]

LOL fucking genius

[zadakman]

The second and third bit is way funnier than the first.. pure geniality

[shoesfordancing]

honestly this sketch just makes me really sad... it's probably supposed to be funny but i'm just sad. i've had a bit to drink but even before this sketch has made me sad. i'll read romeo or juliet! this is such a sad sketch. i just want to weep.

[theschizoidman]

Boy do I miss stuff like this. What the heck happened to TV, to comedy, to culture?

[ConradMcBad]

"Oh Dear" he sounded like Stewie Griffin

[speaktruthiness]

why cant stephen fry and hugh laurie work together againnnn!!!!

[SirGrammar]

You barstad

[retolera]

I so really wanted to hug him =(

[math581]

"I've clouded the whole issue now... I'm holding you back."

This reminds me pf all the crappy pedagogy theories we have now.

So true, so funny!

[fate098]

what season is that : DD I have to see that episode ! :)

[floppetylove]

and in one - the typical student teacher (poor things...im always amazed they get past the first day - or is that just our class?)

XD

[katelynna10000]

I want to show my English teacher this sketch, because she's about to teach the Freshman Romeo and Juliet. Of course, they would NEVER not talk I know them. I've also been the one who knows the answer in this classroom and raises their and, and my teach goes' does anyone else know? Anyone? Alright, answer" Also- as an (amateur) actor, I was like 'Hugh! Quit breaking character! I'm gonna slap you in the face!' I wouldn't but...you know....I had a bad rehearsal today- that kept happening happening

[ftroman]

Ah, brings back the memories of teaching High School English.

[TheBubu983]

WOW! Nobody does comedy like this anymore

[DutchMileyLover]

That's exectly how it goes in our classes. One class worse then the other. I think they gave us the worst teachers ever, I feel a bit sorry for them, but on the other hand, it's funny to see a teacher talking to himself.

[piaaguilos]

I love Stephens high pitched voice and also Hugh!

[93parklife]

this reminds me so much of my year 9 english teacher. poor guy. he meant well

[PuissantAlgernon]

Agonisingly close to reality.

[wingedhamham]

I've been wanting to watch the sketch at 4:26 FOREVER and I've finally seen it! Thanks so much for the upload! Best dialogue ever.

[weaselidiotu]

this is sometimes the case when me and my friends smoke hash

[rakingbellamy]

Jesus, my History teacher..- spot on. .:D just amazing, absolutely amazing..)))

[artvandelay13]

still, i mean anyway...

[saytheremeg]

OH WOW. When I commented, I hadn't even seen the sketch where they're yelling at each other about being right.

"Go and slice little bits off yourself and eat them, of COURSE you're right, that's IT!"

"Just quite simply shut up and never speak again, of COURSE I am!"

Ow, I think I just gave myself a hernia from laughing. Also, I've always loved the way Stephen says, "Of course it 'tis, of course it 'tis." :D

[saytheremeg]

He's perfectly portrayed a British version of my poor English teacher in high school. I think I was one of the only people who actually listened to him!

[fampie2008]

I've had a teacher like that, I felt so sorry for him

[zewombbat]

I hate people that have to have the last word!

[imedesthai]

There are footprints on the blackboard...

[SiriusPunk]

what i love is the fact my lessons actually were like that and the teacher works so hard, completely drives them out of their x)

[lebnene]

I can't hear a thing on this, the voice is really bad

[Haannaahh92]

"The very sight of you makes my skin fall off!!"

ahaha. still. still.. i mean, eh? eh.

[18violet]

i'm in love with this man!!!

[ImeldaLumos]

"Rosie! It's B-A-S-T-A-R-D, yeah - otherwise good."

Perfect performance by Hugh in many senses, like in the sense of doing a remarkable rendering of a nervous teacher, trying painfully and desperately to live out his ambitions.

[skyejacques]

2:43 lmao - "Aha! That's interesting...So we don't think it's relevant, we don't think it's irrelevant either!" Pretty much sums up all of ABOFL! Relevant in it's irrelevance! tee hee! I'm glad there are so many new skits posted up since I checked last year... yay!

[mychemicalrelapse]

in a really odd way, i feel sorry for Laurie when its just a skit. lol

[eddah123]

Oh deear.. Flashbacks of my science lessons back in school!!

This has to be one of my favourite sketches - Hugh Laurie at his comical best as well. =)

[hannah4colbert]

4:26 - 6:25

AHHHH!

A;LSKDFJ;ALSKDFJA;SDFKJ

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

I died twice watching that!

[aplodismentai]

It is so funny

[snack881]

Did anyone notice the way the lamp mysteriously moved at 8:25?

Oh and great sketch... reminds me of my old English teacher.

[themask70]

Awesome stuff

[Wheelsgr]

Oh my goooooooosh, this is so sad....

[Arrested101]

Brilliant British humour! Shame there aren't shows like this anymore

[ghjuy101]

@Arrested101 That Mitchell and Webb look is as close to comedy of this quality as you get these days

[fourplusseven]

@ghjuy101 Just doesn't hit this kind of level for me.

[kiloch]

@Arrested101 yes there are, that mitchell and webb look being a prime example. armstrong and miller show is worth a look too. dont let nostalgia get in the way of appreciating modern comics

[Arrested101]

@kiloch In my opinion neither of those two shows come close to this.

[kiloch]

@Arrested101 ok

[gamgee87]

Is Stephen Fry trying not to laugh in that last sketch? That's what it seems like to me...

[JuuhachigouSama]

Lol, hard not to when Laurie gets to smile and carrying on like he does. hahahaha. Fry's got some great composure!

[noxy4]

"oh sod right off it", that was the funniest line 4 me haha:p

[Saohesc]

It's that line, noxy4! It's the best part!

[noxy4]

i know, it's that line i know Saohesc, it's the best part lol:P

[ImeldaLumos]

The audience is excatly like my french-class. We're just sitting there, and our french-teacher looks dejected. No one dares to break the silence - it's quite pathetic really.

Our substitute gets so nervous and starts dropping pencil and trying to get our attention. Everybody just keeps talking like she's not there, though. I almost feel sorry for her... like I feel sorry for Hugh's character here.

[Weirfan69]

I actually checked your profile to see if it's possible that you go to my school, b.c my French class is exactly the same way :-) it's quite sad, really, poor teachers....

[ImeldaLumos]

Haha. Yes, I really feel sorry for all the French teachers I've had by this time. And even though I don't insult them, they seem inclined to think that every student is against him/her - which is quite logical outcome, bearing in mind how the vast part of my class acts. Hugh Laurie's genius. Based on a real life teacher, probably.

[ramona7609]

LOL

[ToRiHale]

You're right!! You're absolutely right! I know of course I know!! Lool

[brophala]

My bio teacher is exactly him. Bit sad really :(

[aandcod]

L: ListenListenListen!!

F: I beg you pardon?

L: sorry, its the next one-the next line

L: No,No that's not it either sorry its coming up honestly!

F: Then what are you doing-?

L: THIS IS IT!! THIS IS THE ONE!!!!

F: Then what are you doing here sitting in my office?

L: *cracks up* then what are you-hahaha-that is,oh dear,oh dear,uh... actually he didn't do it very well that time - He has done it better than that honestly...

[dannidandannikins]

Is this for the benefit of the hearing impaired? Why did you bother? Honestly.

[NAT4TONY]

If only I could "thumbs up" this comment more than once!

I bloody hate people who just comment by repeating lines from clips, arseholes!

[tararep]

oh laurie's face at 8:25!!! ha ha ha...!

[cpearless]

Ahh, that's interesting. So it's not relevant, nor is it irrelevant. A little bit of a grey area there.

[Romanstandrd]

"... bit of a grey area there. Good, very good."

[bnkybrdwybby]

What's scary is that I have teachers that are pushover like this.

[delightfulcreature]

God in heaven, I think I've been in this classroom.

[blushenka]

Yeah me too :d

[NavinJohnson90]

Reminds me of Michael Palin in that one sketch. "until the word maudling is almost completely obscured"

[ADyingFaith]

Did the lamp move itself at the end?

[SaBoTeUr2001]

LOL the footprints going up the chalkboard! A priest I know pulled this prank on some kids in this remote village while he was doing missionary work, and all the kids screamed, thinking they were evil faeries.

[DesiVivi]

i'm gonna be a teacher, this makes me consider a career change...

[b8amack]

I am a teacher. I've been in EXACTLY this situation.

[FushigiY]

This is so Libby when she's reading Mists of Avalon: "oh yes! Here comes my favorite part! ...yes, the best part! Wait no, it's coming up- no, that's not it either..."

[crawst91]

Hey, I only did that once. But the sad part is that it wasn't as good as I remembered, just like poor Hugh.

[CassisLips]

a metha-scetch at the end

[violakristof]

you gotta love them! Brilliant, fantastic.....
