Product features:
- Only a handful of creative works succeed in capturing the totality of human existence, from birth to death, through love, transfiguration and redemption. "A Bit of Fry and Laurie," the BBC television series co-starring Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, has been said, on two occasions, to be among this group. Over 40 sketches in two programs of fun and frivolity. Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMED
Movie Reviews of A Bit of Fry and Laurie - Season Two
Movie Review: Hilarious Hugh! Funny Fry! Give me more, please!
Summary: 5 Stars
Inexplicably, Netflix does not yet have seasons 1, 3, or 4 of this early 90s sketch comedy done by friends/colleagues Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, who usually produce successful skits if they're not too esoteric or not dragged out too long.
Imagine a funnier, shorter, and very British SNL. Recurring characters include the spy Tony and his extremely polite boss, Control ("Bohhh!"); the perpetually disgruntled, swearing business partners John and Peter ("Damn, double damn, and an extra pint of damn for the weekend!"); and various interviewees on the streets of London. Much absurdity, wordplay, and amusing musical performances as well. Best bits: Hugh plays an angry man who wants to be cured of his eccentricity ("Well, give the man a bloody MEDAL!" ... I thought I would die laughing); Fry dancercises; Fry portrays Michael Jackson after much facial reconstruction; Hugh plays a song called "Where is the lid?"; Fry and Laurie make up new swear words. Is it possible they invented the word "skank" ?
My mom was in stitches after hearing the trifle/custardy joke in one of the John and Peter sketches.
Includes an extra feature--these fellows and other budding actors, including friend Emma Thompson, performing material at Cambridge University in 1982. Among the 45 minutes of this : Hugh talking nonsense, Fry teaching Hugh how to do Shakespeare; the pair plus Tony Slattery and Penny Dwyer in a hilarious game of charades; and much more.
