  • Hit morpheusatloppe... for another laugh! In answer to MANY enquiries, this is from "The Nearly Complete And Utter History Of Everything". Oh, and is there something we don't KNOW about Hugh Laurie? The reference to "that new high-grade narcotic..."? (See comments below).

    Videos like this make me impressed that Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie ever got anything done together. They can barely look at each other here without making each other laugh.

    i don't know what's funnier: james dreyfuss failing to keep it together and the other actors stop and stare at him corpsing in take 6, the d-d-d-d- nonsense or the fact that after they finally get through the d-d-d-d- bit, they all forget their lines!!

    Stephen Fry, a legend in his lifetime! This really cracks me up every time I watch it. Its the d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d gentlemen bit that is pure comic genius and totally hilarious. Thank you so much for the upload.

      The saddest Part is he cant even do his best DDDDDDD becasue No One can Keep a straight face. He has to tone it down and that is a homage to his talent and a shame as well.

    @looseSpark 11 лет назад +154

    I would have laughed every time hearing Stephen Fry say "D d d d d d d d d d d d d gentlemen". Nicely improvised too.
    I found it amusing the way he shortened it the last time so they could get through it without cracking.

    He recently did the Melchett sheep-laugh - only for a SECOND - on Qi ...and it nearly stopped the show! Stephen is a comedy god - and a hell of a good chap. Apparently he has SEEN this upload. If he ever returns here - thankyou, sir, for YEARS of entertainment - from Friday/Saturday Live to the afore-mentioned Qi.

    It is so funny when you imagine that Hugh Laurie was only a local star in UK during this sketch. And a few years later he became one of the biggest TV Stars in the whole world. And he had no idea here.

    @MrJingres 10 лет назад +173

    There seems to be some confusion. Stephen says, "America has given us nothing but TOBACCO, potatos, and that new high-grade narcotic that your so fond of," and points at Hugh. The irony is of course that STEPHEN is the admitted user of COCAINE here. Maybe thats why Hugh looks at him and laughs.

    • @A-small-amount-of-peas
      @A-small-amount-of-peas 10 лет назад +8

      I'd doubt it I think was just corpsing ,sometimes the smallest thing sets you off

    • @flecot
      @flecot 10 лет назад +17

      Cocaine isn't a narcotic though. It's a stimulant. But I get the point, and so does Stephen.

    • @MrJingres
      @MrJingres 10 лет назад +2

      flecot Yes, I had written that tobacco wasn't a narcotic, too. Oops.

    • @A-small-amount-of-peas
      @A-small-amount-of-peas 9 лет назад +8

      It's called corpsing and if you haven't experienced it then it's hard to describe

    • @eleanorcleary8391
      @eleanorcleary8391 8 лет назад +1

      +Reb Brown Ricky Gervais on Extras is a prime example of corpsing. Funniest thing i have ever watched. 10/10 would highly recommend if feeling down.

    • @A-small-amount-of-peas
