Hugh Laurie's Dad Is a Coxless Pairs Olympic Gold-Medal Winner
/ fallontonight
Hugh Laurie is so damn charming...and a brilliant actor.
he is
+SupernaturalMusicVideos Couldn't agree more
Hugh Laurie is one of the most talanted actor that ever existed.
His dad sounds so sweet. Imagine winning a gold medal from the Olympics and not hanging it up for people to see. I like that.
+Minty My grandfather won a silver medal at the 1936 olympics in coxless pair (2 man - Harry Larsen). Hughs dad was in sculls I asume since that was the only gold Britain won. My granddad was a police officer and was actually put ina sort of work camp when our country was occupied. - He never hung his diploma, and I believe the medal was kept in a chest somewhere, and never shown off.
Hugh said his father won his medal in 1948 if I understood correctly. He just said his father was there in Berlin in 1936.
Its weird watching him without seeing him knock back some vicodin
SAME
Its vicodin.
lmaoo ikr
i need my vikadin!!!
+KobeBryant You should watch the new show he was on, The hotel manager. It's brillant and he's an amazing actor as always
I've watched the entire HOUSE series three or four times now. I'm in the 8th season now.
I'm an American woman, & I've always been VERY impressed how Mr. Laurie does his american accent
so very, very well.
He truly seems to be a kind man, nothing like Gregory House!
I tend to believe that Mr. Hugh Laurie is a fairly modest man, like his father was.
I enjoy everything that he is in. Everything.
I'm truly sorry to hear that he has been paying a 'price' for the bad leg, limping (House) as of about five years ago.
I'm so sorry. ❤
I love this man by hearth. Amazing actor.
Hugh, look how many fans you have. I hope you read some of these messages somehow.
Normally people only say nice things once someone has passed, so I hope you realise how much people appreciate you while you are around.
Much love from the UK
Watching in my..
House.
O.M.G me too
badam tss
+elina deshpande 😃😃😆
+DamoThinks jesus christ
+DamoThinks Thank you for actually making me laugh out loud!!
He's still attractive to me...
People are just a bit surprised, they have to get used to it. Besides, with Hugh it's more about charm. You can take his eyes out and replace them with gumballs and he'll still be charming.
...but don't do that, please.
Widdekuu91 I don't get what jimmy means when he says at 0:43 "different thing it's wasn't the Olympics" can you explain to me? Thanks
lecoindeclaire he said "Coxless" and it sounded like "Cocks-less" meaning... no penis...
syllevineo yes I know but I don't get when Jimmy says " it wasn't the olympics"
I absolutely LOVE Hugh! can't get enough of him.
So effortlessly funny and charming. Hugh Laurie, you are my HERO!
Jimmy Fallon's got the maturity of a preteen
What happened to him? He's aged so fast! Still a great person and actor.
ikr
+Simone Orlando In the end of House he was already starting to get bald, but yeah you're right.
+Masterpg2007 He started to get bald before starring in House. There's even an episode when they had to cover his bald spot with hair digitally. Don't know why they couldn't use a wig.
+Simone Orlando He's been in showbiz for a long time. He practically owned the 80s in British comedy with Stephen Fry and Rowan Atkinson.
+The Pain of Harold I knew that,I even watched his skectches. I know he's awesome,also for that.
I want him to speak in the House voice lol.
So people age, some of them lose some hair. So what? Did you love House because of a full head of hair?
actually yes. loved his hair
+Victor Valencia same
+Victor Valencia +Pedro Bear You people are very silly, and besides - he wore a toupee for House. Hope it didn't ruin your memories.
+Rytis K. yes
+brakjart why is that disappointing to you?!
Love Hugh Laurie everyone should listen to him playing with his band & his music it is way cool and so great.....
Hugh Laurie is my favorite actor ever! House is the best show ever!
I feel like every time Hugh Laurie talks I learn something new, he seems to be a phenomenal person to have a conversation with.
I swear that each time Jimmy laughs "A HA HA HA HAH!" a baby dies.
This man is a legend. House one of the best tv show and night manager is pretty good too
Jimmy stop interrupting this man FFS
Watching that reminds me that the world needs a bit more of (Fry and) Laurie!
I love Hugh Laurie, great actor
The Night Manager is SO GOOD! I think Tom Hollander is Brilliant in it also 👏🏻📺💯✨
fla la And even more so Tom Hiddleston! The guy is gorgeous and a brilliant actor.
I love Hugh So much! He's so damn charming,incredible as an actor and as a musician!..I can truely say He's one of the Greatest actors ever!
I agree. I’m such a big fan. I love the story about him with his mom and dad rowing out to fish. 😁
I love this man so much. 💕
Hugh Laurie is soooooo cute!! I miss House :(
So his father's a physician AND an Olympic gold medalist.
Wow! What a force of nature.
I love how he says, "stop it"
❤
One of the best actors of all time.
thank you for 8 seasons of house
we love you Hugh laurie
Man.... He has aged so much since the House series. I still love House. This brings back memories.
1:57 House is fed up with your shit Jimmy.
Like if you get the reference.
yall should listen to his music too his voice is AMAAAAZING!
Hugh Laurie is my favorite actor
he is so amazing
I miss house. I wish they would bring the show back.
he looks way better with a beard lol
I really love this man he is amzing actor 😍😍
I gotta rewatch Black Adder!!
+George Tarantino I watched it a couple of years ago on RUclips, and was shocked at some of the below the belt humour and surprised that my parents had let me watch it as a child. But then again, I was too young to understand the jokes until my recent rewatching of them (^_^;) LOL
+George Tarantino It never gets old.
If the American media treated him the way the British did he'd be a much bigger star than he is now. This story was told soo many times years ago. The real story is Fallons awkward fake laugh to all his guests
I cringe every time he laughs
Imran Leo Yeah Fallon sucks shit
this guy is the best actor I've ever seen
This is literally every rower explaining rowing to a non-rower.
Hugh Laurie is a great blues musician.
I love watching him in everything that his in
Love Hugh’s deep rich voice and British accent. And he is devastatingly handsome too!.
Hugh totally established what coxless pair means. He said it in the beginning "He (his dad) rowed in the coxless pair." Lol - I still love you Jimmy!!!
Correction: coxless pairs, not pair!
This man is so charming! Very spontaneous
I knew him from 101 Dalmatians first and then House
101 Dalmations, ahh childhood
+TheMuffinMan "Friends" and "Stuart Little" for me! :)
you know you're right, I started knowing hugh back then! What a actor!
All of these. But most from A bit of Fry and Laurie
+TheMuffinMan Jeeves and Wooster.
THE LEGEND
Big fan of Hugh Larry, Tom Hiddlehurst and John Hollander in the new series The Night Manger!
I came here just to hear him talk
yeah that's the whole concept of a talk show
good one. i meant his accent though lol
+Kate C He doesn't have an accent...
+TheMissendenFlyer what is wrong with you? xD
+Pooja Aggrawal Nothing, he's English speaking English, by default he therefore doesn't have an accent per se other than a proper English one, it's the American's that have an American accent when speaking English....hope that makes sense?
Stop interrupting him James! Let the House speak
"Permission to shout Bravo! at annoyingly loud volume?" George ♡
+zlameli Permission granted.
+Jonathan Charles BRAVO!! ;)
+zlameli baaaaah!
Hey look, it's the Zodiac Kil-
Oh wrong video.
+Synfaxed lol
I'm in love with that man!
How disrespectful that interviewer is. Hugh is trying to relate a story about his Father.
How could you not love Hugh Laurie?
I love Hugh's accent. I much prefer it to his House accent.
i miss fry and laurie together so much
LOVE Hugh Laurie
fascinating father, and mother, to have never mentioned an Olympic gold medal
WILL YOU LET THE MAN TALK GOSH JIMMY
Can't remember how many times he's had to tell this story on talkshows over the years. Too many to count, perhaps.
I didn't know he was balding, he aged really fast. Still great.
Love me some Hugh Laurie.
Hugh Laurie is so good
Oh I missed him!!!
Great actor. loved House. It's the only drama I ever liked.
"yes he does know what he is doing"
I think House should have just continued for the rest of Hugh Laurie's life.
I only know this man as House....I miss those days
Jimmy, stop interrupting your guests, especially articulate ones like Hugh!
I love Dr Gregory House 😍
love the night manager 😀
His dad rowed against the University of Washington at the Berlin Olympics. They were the subject of the book and movie, "The Boys in the Boat".
He is great
Hugh in night manager 👌🏼
I love this man!
After watching so many seasons of House, I just realised he's the one who played the dad in Stuart Little 😳
Man he put on an accent for the whole of house, mind blown
I'm Australian, I'm sorry that I don't follow actors' nationalities, Americans unfortunately aren't the only ones who can be dumb.
Sidney IsTheMan You're an Aussie?????
Even scarier!
Half of Hollywood is Australian actors masquerading as yanks.
I don't really see any point in following anything like that so closely, pretty irrelevant to anything that would concern me.
My beloved actor
His father is a doctor!! olympic gold medal winner!!! this man is a genius
wow Laurie your dad must have been a fucking beast. I can't imagine sweeping with only two people.
Everyone watch BBCs The Night Manager it's So Good! Hugh Laurie is a Brilliant Baddie in it! 📺💯
Fry and Laurie, Blackadder was first time I saw him then House and was surprised how good an actor he is. Then the Night Manager which was on in the UK first, John Le Carre.
He needs to play Box of Lies with him.
Richard Roper in da House
House MD, Hugh Laurie is underrated now!
Weird not hearing him talk like House. He's definitely a great actor 😻
First ever TV I watched was House and I loved it
First ever...?
If you don't get the point Im making then i feel sorry for you
Seriously, this interview is too short.....I was anticipating that Hugh stay & play a game ( password was hilarious last time) or even a musical duo performance....but nothing...a bit sad that JFallon choose to talk to him about House (I've nothing against it....loved & was a huge fan, but been 4 yrs since it ended....and he's promoting Night Manager (I've seen the first 2 episodes....he's amazing in it) so let him talk about it....Plus it made me miss Craig Ferguson even more....because at least the interview were almost 15min+ & the exchanges were hilarious between 2 old friends
THE most modest family.
Took me 2mins to realize he was Dr.House😂 I'm only 10epis in so far no wonder he looked so familiar.
He is such a cool guy!
Love Hughe!
House is looking so old T_T I miss the show, loved it so much.
Oh whoa! Christopher Lloyd!!
Hugh, i am dying. Please rescue me. 😍
Hugh was also in an episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. in a scene with Jennifer Aniston for those who didn't know...
A magnificent actor and singer and a really funny guy
What more do you want?
Thumbs up for Dr House
