Actor, comedian, raconteur and all around renaissance man Stephen Fry posted a tweet on his Twitter account earlier today teasing his followers with news that he and his once and future comedy partner Hugh Laurie are “cooking up a project together. We will be working again soon.” He apologized for having no other details, but said he would offer more when he can. Laurie is just coming off his epic run on Fox’s House, so it may surprise many people in the U.S. that Laurie is, in fact, British, and is still best known there for doing comedy, particularly with Fry. They starred together in the sketch comedy show A Bit of Fry & Laurie, which ran from 1989 to 1995 at various time on BBC1 and BBC2. The two men, along with Emma Thompson, met while all attended University of Cambridge. All three of them – and others from that generation of British actors – were part of the ensemble cast of Kenneth Branagh’s Peter’s Friends in 1992.


Another A bit of fry and laurie, jeeves and wooster...dare i say a last installment of black Adder??? or something completely different, any way it will be epic whatever those two decide.

A lot of people who saw "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" don't know Bob Hoskins is British.

yeah i learned that many years after seeing the movie (I was 10 when it came out). i am still really impressed at his american accent in that movie.

I saw this just right after I finished watching all four episodes of Black Adder. (It always seems that during their comedian days, hugh was the one who gets beaten up, check their sitcom A Bit of Fry and Laurie and the third season of Black Adder)

Still, I'm as excited as a very excited person who has a special reason to be excited.

Yeah, I saw an interview with him a few years after that film came out and was completely surprised myself when I heard him speak.
