    Only reason I watched House M.D. was because I wondered how Hugh could possibly play a "serious" american doctor (I'd only ever known him as a comedy actor). He played it extremely well and his comedy acting experience is what really helps make House a likable character even though he's a complete ass.

    • @fromthedumpstertothegrave3689
      @fromthedumpstertothegrave3689 3 года назад +53

      yeah, its a testament to his acting how many viewers of House had no idea he was English. Not to mention that from about the second season onwards he was allowed to lean into the comedic, albeit black comedy, a bit more.

So yes, I did play football on that pitch, utterly forgettably... apart from the a single dummy, back-heel and spin to get out of right-back with the opposition top striker chasing me down as I waited for a slow pass.
