  • Hahaha LOL! I wonder what the Librarian and his assistant would make now that England is for the moment the number one test nation in cricket. Brit humour and dry wit and its best. The 1980s were a golden age for British comedy on TV. So many funny and inventive comedy tv shows Fry and Laurie, Spitting Image, Not the 9 o'clock news,Black Adder, Rory Bremner, The Two ronnies, Allo Allo etc. I am sure there is many more British TV from that era. But this is all I can think of for the moment.

  • Ted Cunterblast made me spit out my beer

  • my last girlfriend could do a cunterblast. dirty bitch.

  • I have watched the library sketch a dozen times! It is so well written!

  • The beginning seems very similar to the 'joining the army' sketch in Monty Python, right down to the character joining another sketch at the end...

  • I'm pretty sure I'm studying at Snide University, though evidently they've changed the name.

  • THis sketch could be a metaphor for religion.

  • @Hyperplaterine Yes, this sketch is indeed a metaphor for the problem of redemption (one of the 12 levels this sketch works on).

  • haha revisionist history

  • He *does* actually look good in black...

  • Snide University?!

  • completely nonsensical and absolutely wonderful

  • Booooooo for those 5 people who voted thumbs down !

  • 5 people are librarians... :P

  • Ted Cunterblast

  • Ted Cunterblast! One of the greatest comedy names ever. How on earth Fry & Laurie got away with the first syllable, and kept saying it through the skit, without the BBC censors kicking off, is beyond me. Brilliantly funny, still.

  • roffle, this is exactly what 'rational' people think patriots are like isn't it..

  • Stephen in that uniform is well on his way to being MY "masturbatory aid" ;)

  • I look good in black  aaaaaaaahhahhahaahahahahah

  • I love how Stephen just pops up randomly like that at 2:50

  • vanaf 1:50

  • That woman was off Yes Prime Minister, right?

    Dear Lady

  • I wish Stephen Fry would go under my desk! ^,~

  • Why did Hugh Laurie ever give this up

  • Ted Cunterblast...

    XD

  • Thank heavens I am not a cricket fan, or I would be highly offended by that West Indies bit. However, apart from Brian Lara, this sketch was oddly prophetic...

  • I want to go to snide university.

  • brilliant piece of satire

  • "The West Indies... aren't...much good... at cricket"

    " Did you enjoy it sir ?"

    That's pure genious xD

  • ...I love the library !

  • ohdearthatmightbeabitofaproble­m

    mightthatbeabitofaproblem?

    ijustsaiditmightbeabitofaprobl­em

    rofl!

  • @arseman1024 You seem to have forgotten to use the space button, sir.

  • @maagiapall I think you'll find I was trying referring to the way they said those lines with barely a breath in between word....

  • hahaha, Stephen's collar...

  • Wow, she's "Dorothy Wainwright" from Yes, prime minister.

  • i'm going to use this in my next interview... see how well this goes.

    :D

  • Ted Cunterblast lol!

  • It's always good watching clips like this as a Welshman.

  • Really? I must try that some time.

  • I recommend trying it ASAP.

  • Snide University???

  • Sorry... could you say that again Hugh?!

  • "I envy you, sir, I can never read a book twice..." ....waaahhhahhahhhhaaaa

  • Stephen looks lovely in a uniform...

    One of my favourite shows EVER. What would we do without Fry and Laurie?

  • er...no...i'd rather watch these fellows. Satisfaction guaranteed (as opposed to sex).

  • you're right, watching Fry will always be better than lude behaivor

  • Watching these fellows doesn't guarantee sex?

    It doesn't?

  • @xxBCDLSxx .. well whatever you've been doing the past couple of year sI'd imagine...

  • @xxBCDLSxx Watch "Blackadder" and "Jeeves & Wooster" :-)

  • stephen fry always looks good in uniform ;)

  • I love how Hugh's voice gets high when he says "anybody" at 4:48. Oh, and his facial expression is terrific too. =)

  • :)! x

  • love how fry says "problim".

  • brilliant mister fry and mister laury

  • 'Snide University' - very funny

    :o)

  • I adore these two, Stephen Fry is a God-like Genius :D

  • Very funny and rather sad for me whose uncle was a commando with a posthumous VC at 23.

  • Very Funny!

  • fabulous. love em both!

  • wow, very nice of stephen fry to link us here, as I don't have every sketch on the top of my mind (regrettably)

  • u aware that Stephen Fry posted a link to this video on twitter!? Xx : )

  • Yeap thats how I got here following him on twitter. An absolute classic.

  • Which should push the viewing figures up by a few thousand in a matter of minutes ;o)

  • yep and it really deserves it. it was an awesome series. Xx

  • "He's a knocker isn't he?"

    hahaha Lol!

  • hahaha...omg i laughed so much..lol..nice thanx for uploading

  • Excellent sketch about anti intellectualism

  • no sense of tast, what in movies music

  • this is sick, i can't believe somone like hugh laurie would badmouth this great country like that

  • dude, get over it. it's a sketch.

  • i wurr joking, durr

  • Ahaha it's awesomely ironic that you're taking offence to this and completely missing the point.

    He's digging at bristling anti intellectualism and ridiculous defensive attitudes, not badmouthing England or GB or even cricket.

  • funny that you're the second person to take me seriously, happy xmas

  • i thought that it would be obvious i was siding with stephen's character, this falls down when people take everything on face value

  • Nah I just didn't check the rest of the comments before posting - my bad!! I totally apologise :D Merry Xmas

  • stevolution666

    exactly ( I just saw the library scene ) aw, thanks M;)
