    RIP Robbie, this performance was so funny yet surprisingly accurate portrayal of Dr Johnson had him returning to the Role a second time in 1993 the serious Historical film production "Dr Johnson & Boswell's Tour of The Western Isles" . The real Dr Johnson was a man before his time, progressive for his time & was quick to point out the hypocrisy of others such as certain American Founder Fathers for preaching Freedom whilst keeping Slaves & allying with the Absolute Monarchies of France & Spain. He did have a manservant Francis Barber who happened to be Black but he was Free, was a genuine friend of his and was left a fortune in his will, & his descendants are still involved with the Dr John museum.

      @@mccarthy5825 this is mostly a misconception. Shakespeare is the first attestation of a large number of English words, but that's simply a reflection of the fact that he is such a well-preserved writer with a large body of work. The words he is often mistakenly said to have "invented" in newspaper articles etc. are usually simply words that the OED has (or at one point had) their first example as coming from a Shakespeare text. But those are most all pre-existing words for which no earlier written example's survive (or, as it turns out, which simply hadn't been found or noticed, being from much more obscure sources than the most famous English playwright to ever live).

    Dictionary Two, the Return of the Killer Dictionary is one of Dr. Johnson's underrated works.

    This has nothing to do with how genius this scene is, but, Hugh Laurie was really cute.

    I felt at the loss of Coltrane the way we're supposed to have felt when the Queen karked it. He was a great talent.

    My dad and I have always said that we will return interfrastically for over 40 years now! To the point where our entire extended family just accept it as a common expression, my eight year old daughter even uses it. If a comedy script has a throw away line that can last three generations it's proof positive that the writing was incredible
