Fry and Laurie - At the Theatre with Peter Mostyn

[@emi90210]

"kidneys are nature`s own dialisis machines" just fantastic!!!

[@76jsc]

Doesn’t he say that on House somewhere?

[@kellylentz302]

I found the close-up on Hugh's face to be very pleasant. Very pleasant indeed.

[@ahobbit1273]

“Surgery is very much the art of the unexpected.” Lol I love how hilariously NOT true that statement is.

[@smkemper]

Thank you to share those 1986 videos. I bought the Bit of Fry & Laurie DVD box set after I saw the sketches here (didn't know about Hugh career before) and it's a pleasure to see sketches they did before.

[@avinandandey6418]

House M.D. the other way around

[@JuuhachigouSama]

omg, that bit of "blood" on Hugh's lip was driving me crazy!

[@PointsofData]

In what way exactly?

[@janetallnutt5767]

Remind me never to eat supper in front of KZbin again.

[@badlydrawnturtle8484]

Never eat supper in front of KZbin again.

Never eat supper in front of KZbin again.

[@unijade]

Am I the only one who was wincing throughout the whole sketch? I almost felt knots at the pit of my stomach!!

[@AparnaRajanTcr]

unijade I wouldn't usually mind but I am eating my breakfast now🙄

[@neurofire]

So wonderfully silly.

[@Theo21]

This made me extremely uncomfortable yet I laughed

[@ytakt123]

One word, AWESOME!!!!

[@lightawake]

That glare on hugh laurie's face after stephen fry pulls out the flowers lol - it's as if he pulled that one out spontaneously on him. If so, Hugh's recovery is impressive!

[@maxineho7634]

yeah I do realise that glare was quite unusual as if he was in real surprise

[@David-ud9ju]

You could only see his head from the side and behind. How the hell can you possibly know that he's glaring; you can't even see his face? Also, there is no way any of this is ad libbed.

[@PointsofData]

If anything he looks nonplussed. Like an actor waiting for the audience laughter to die down so he can deliver his line.

[@q-tuber7034]

Surgery: the art of the unexpected.

[@MendelsonShape]

That's interesting. He called himself Peter Mostyn. Hugh played a character called Mostyn for the Alliance and Leicester ads. Nerdy of me to remember that.

[@BelatedCommiseration]

Ha...House goes under the knife...but Hugh will always be Bertie Wooster to me, despite the fact that he always has been a very good actor, and I hope he actually gets more roles than just mad maverick doctors as his career goes on.

[@vardellsfolly5200]

Well, it did NOT rain on Tuesday and Gregory House most certainly did NOT die, in matter of fact he became a doctor and saved many lives.

[@TedHendershot]

Holy shite...Hugh must look back on this and laugh.

[@RooftopSloth]

Today is Tuesday, and it is indeed raining

[@EllaBananas]

huh. today is tuesday and its raining as well. how about that

[@RooftopSloth]

@@EllaBananas what a couple rainy tuesdays we’ve been livin eh?

[@wiszak9370]

and then he liked it and became Dr. House.

[@liamthewarrior]

That's more like he was traumatised by it and developed a complex which eventually led to him accepting the role of the mad-doctor in a desperate attempt to regain control over his trauma 😂😂😂

[@MusicJamSchauspiel]

That is one large stomach xD

[@Mezzy..]

those orgnans look converningly real

[@dars5229]

When you see that stuff in movies or TV, they're usually made from rubber, wrapped with something reflective and sprayed with water.

[@luisostasuc8135]

If they were going really low budget they could have gone to a butcher. I doubt that they did, but sometimes the real thing is easier to work with

[@WeaselKing1000]

Need a related video to click on QUICK! Not that it's not hilarious, but... :P

[@headsgrowback1]

12 year old video and no one has mentioned Surgeon Simulator. This is how every game of Surgeon Simulator is.

[@thegroovetube3247]

12 year old video?? This series ran from 1989 - 95.

[@headsgrowback1]

@@thegroovetube3247 I understand this. But this video that allows people to leave comments was uploaded 12 years ago. If we could leave text attached to television shows when they released then I would state that age. But alas, we couldn't.

[@BonJody]

Just like the House episode with the girl who can't feel pain and has a tape worth

[@janrdoh]

Took some guts not to flinch with that blood on his lip.

[@Mihoshika]

ba dum tss

[@PartialPenguin]

@unijade I think he was both

[@MercedesH835]

I could see House and Wilson doing this to a group of medical students...but they'll never do it as well as Hugh and Stephen.

[@IizUname]

I'd rather not die

[@unijade]

Then I guess over-achievement runs in the family! Admirable...intimidating! =|

[@unijade]

His dad wasn't a doctor. He was an athlete, wasn't he? An Olympics medalist? Guess perfection ran in the family ;)

[@mustafa1name]

He was both. 'Ran' Laurie won Olympic gold in the coxless pairs rowing in 1948. He also won the university boat race 3 times on the Cambridge team. He later qualified as a medical doctor and practised as a G.P. for 30 years. Hugh is his youngest son.

[@Spazzbert]

Are the bits he's pulling out from a cow?

[@sly4u247]

what did i just see?

[@omarsaletovicprins9632]

The real reason he walks with a cane.

[@TheAkelei]

Uugh. I have to confess that I'm beginning to feel a bit queesy here. These guys are really into it, aren't they. OMG. I just can't...

[@chocchipfox]

wow they would never show that sketch on tv nowadays

[@letolethe3344]

That stomach must be from an ox or a an elk--it's about 20 times bigger than a human stomach!

[@t3n0r2009]

i find it pretty funny how Hugh Laurie did a lot of medical schetches before he became House... it's like he was waiting for this his entire life...

[@MendelsonShape]

"Military intelligence" - THAT is an oxymoron.

[@kotsia5742]

i wonder if this pushed Hugh to work as DR HOUSE.

[@svenpornstar]

no its not, lol, he js did them coz they wer funny

[@mrsstevenburns]

in my opinion the liver was to small to be from a cow. i know how large pig's livers are and think cow's livers must be at least as large...
