2. Here's two more classic Laurie "songs".
The man is awesome, and funny as hell.

3. He's a really talented guy
Everything he does is excellent. I first saw him on the The Young Ones - University Challenge episode with Emma Thompson (Daddy's got a porshe) and Stephen Frey.

4. He also wrote the funniest book I've ever read called The Gun Seller.
The name of the college in that Young Ones episode is called Footlights College after the Cambridge Footlights, which aired before the Young Ones and starred Laurie, Fry, and Thompson (along with the very funny Tony Slattery).

6. Bertram Wilberforce Wooster rules!
I can't watch him as House - he will always be Bertie Wooster to me. What ho, Jeeves!

9. I bought my husband the complete DVD set of the Fry and Laurie Jeeves series
for Christmas. He is going to love it.

11. What a great gift!
I own the set, as well, and it's great to break out the episodes from time to time.

8. I am hopin one day, one day...
There will be an episode of House featuring Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson, and Miranda Richardson as Guest Stars.

Methinks Hugh Laurie put a bit of Edmund Blackadder into Gregory House.

10. They are trying to get Stephen Fry in an episode.
Be cool to see that. But the whole Blackadder crew? THAT would be awesome! :)
