A Bit of Fry and Laurie - Dinner With Digby

[HulloKat]

Oooh people like this are so annoying :p I mean the people they're portraying. I LOVE Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie!

[disismcsquared]

[doctorx777]

Apparently Venice is absolutely heaving with Italians....

[MissInformati0n]

'ah, true, true, trouchez'

BRILLIANT

[EmmyNeander]

Very, very déglanté. :)

[naganokumas]

FUCK YOU!!

You said "I could never truly be friends with anybody who didn't love lemon pie."

I don't like lemon pie. You know I don't. But I'm still prepared to be friends with you.

Where does this leave our friendship now?

[Happy0]

[Freya5000]

[daryl1q1]

the sheer pompousity of these three is gladdening to behold.

[Frequency95]

So weird that after watching this I entered a conversation about the huge number of tourists in Venice and that they should be banned!! Reminded me so much of this.

[silkshines00]

"if I had my way with mervin brag" "-no one would be the least surprised" I almost died laughing.

[bearnuckle]

"...and similarly louche places." :)

[glazenbol]

@bearnuckle Has a sketch ever started with a greater line than that XD ?!?!

[glazenbol]

@bearnuckle Has a sketch ever started with a greater line than that XD ?!?!

[twomazz]

This is definitely my one of my favourite F&L-sketches. Makes you want to quote nearly everything. '... And similarly louche places' 'Have you have you?' 'I blame television, I'm sorry but I do', 'But than Cocteau never does that's how you always can tell it's Cocteau.' '...no-one would be in the least surprised!' Et cetera et cetera

[naomibeijer]

that VOX pop is amzing XD

I use my penis as a sort of car substitute XD

[faraz1729]

Haha, I was not ready for it to begin that hilariously. Almost cracked up in the library.

[artvandelay13]

i love 2:48 :)

[rocksoliddude1]

who didn't love lemon pie.

[saytheremeg]

Thanks to this skit, the word "True-ché" has found its way into my regular vocabulary. Thanks, Hugh and Stephen!

[wolfxbloed]

2:25 is just the cutest face ever made.

[MrAfterall]

This and dancersizes are one of the most funnies bits of fry and laurie LOL

[Bernankegreenspan]

This is absolutely hilarious.

"The queen of the adriatic..."

"... is just one of the things you've been called."

roflol

[TeamKilday]

"heaving with Italians"

"our whole world is stained"

hahaha.

[maroonkobrakai]

I'd completely forgotten about M&S food section being called St Michael (sic)

[busybee720]

"In my local one there's an absolutely marvellous primary school!"

"A primary school?"

"Yes...my-n'my husband's children go there,"

lol! Priceless!

[lennic95]

I live in Venice! lol

[sporadiclunacy]

"-Have you tried their new boxer shorts?

-I haven't, I haven't!

-I have, delicious!"

Sheer brilliance!

[vonFulda1987]

Have you? Have you???

He is a tourist, you are a holiday-maker - but I am a traveller!

-one of the best sketches ever!

[Flyanotherday]

Ng ng ng ng ng ng. Fantastic noise by Fry there.

[Nadine1955]

"Trouche!" Ha ha ha!

[galvanicgirl]

Wow. 2:24. That's the most frightening thing I've ever seen Stephen Fry do. I think I like it.

[SorteOrm]

He looks the Joker with that grin - i didn't notice it earlier, pretty cool though!

[MontyDave]

What is the introductory music for "Dinner with Digby"? It sounds very much like Vivaldi. I heard it one time on the radio in my supervisor's office, and I've been trying to locate it again.

My apt. needs that intro music. Oh yes.

[willowbong]

Thanks for posting this. Very funny.

[lizalector]

ahh thank you for that enlightenment! :)

[lizalector]

what does stephen say? is it latin? and again, thank u for the wonderful videos!

[AntonyTDenberg]

"Eheu Fugaces" is a poem written by Horace. The first line of the poem is: "Eheu fugaces, Postume, Postume,

labuntur anni," which can be translated as "Alas, Postumus, Postumus, our fleetings years pass away."

"O tempora, o mores!" was written by Cicero and means "Alas for the times and the manners!"

Both having studied at Cambridge, I imagine both Hugh and Stephen are well-versed in classical verse. =P

[cheekbones7]

Thank you so much for translating that!!! 

this is one of my favorite sketches and Hugh's expression makes me burst with laughter each time, no matter how many times iv'e seen..........................­.... it.
