After Craig said "Stay firm or stop hard," I wanted Hugh to add, "If you'll pardon the pun..." like he and Stephen would say on ABOFL because this was the one time there actually was one! Stop hard/Stoppard
Strange you should say make, as if the act of coition were producing an artefact of some kind. The painter Giotto could draw a perfect circle free-hand.
How is that relevant?
Well, it's an arty fact, too. I'm sorry, loved one, but I seem to be losing rigidity.
Losing rigidity or gaining frigidity? There's only an f in it.
There are two fs in stiffness. A fortissimo of love. I'm sorry, angel, but I can't stay firm.
Dido thanks so much for posting this I love Craig and Stephen and Hugh are just wonderful .... Rowan's weird but brilliant of course XD to see them all together is a real treat
I love this sketch, it has all my fav actors/comedians in it: Fry, Laurie and Atkinson. Rowan almost looses his cool when hearing about the "sweet scent of pine" that´s eminating from his chest hair!! And what about the rosie cheeks of Hugh?!!?!! XD
Thanks for posting 4alecksandra. Limecapp, you obviously know who Craig Ferguson is. Can you tell me more about him? The only CF I can find referenced is the Glasgow chap now hosting TV show in USA.
I've been watching some of the clips, he's very engaging isn't he? Just looks and sounds very different in this clip. Very handsome. I can't find any other earlier clips. Love YouTube!
He's a Scot, how can he help it? Admire his frankness about his drinking problem. He doesn't need to copy any other USA celeb, his charm lies in his own personality. (And you are quite safe!)
I'll rely on yr opinion, Limecapp, as I only see them on YouTube, but he certainly has the right personality for it. Loved his interview with Hugh Laurie
