Soundtrack sync is wayyy off.

[nicksasexiebeast]

Its not out of sync on my computer, something must have gone wrong whilst it was uploading.

[amiserable]

both these actors are incredible - would that they did more together. fantastic!11

[nicksasexiebeast]

They are awesome together, especially in Blackadder the third and Blackadder goes fourth!

[casdebom2]

You should watch A Bit Of Fry and Laurie. Awesome.

[nicksasexiebeast]

I have watched it, it's one of my favourite shows! Love HL

[yankeeangel26]

[Komicklepto]

He says "Yeah well I've always said the Rose Theatre is a dump. Frankly, I mean the sooner they knock it down and build something decent the better".

[veritaas]

The groundlings has rewrote Shakespeare, look, look, look!

[Connor Robert]

Hey, where can I find the script for this?

[Imthekey]

just love how he works in such details, like when he says 'brilliant' 3:29

[tarnmonath]

I find YouTube sometimes does that when you upload stuff. Very irritating.

[MaskedMan66]

Not that they're recognizable as either Bean or House in this skit.

[petertrubody05]

Hamlet is one of my favourite Shakespeares. This was great character comedy by a master of character comedy.

[canadasprincesss]

rowan atkinson and hugh laurie should do more scenes together they complement each other very well, they are both extremely talented actors

[etherealrhythm]

I suppose this sketch was the inspiration for all of those Orange ads in some form or another? The resemblance is too striking to be a coincidence.
