The Fish 11079 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Been watching "A Bit of Fry and Laurie" and it strikes me how relevant it remains. I mean obviously the Yuppie jibes are dated, but it's easy to look past the yuppy and see the type of arsehole they're mocking in the modern age. I'm rambling a little.

I grew up in the 80s and thought they were hit and miss at the time. It's only with hindsight that I've realised just how talented they both were.

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Bought the dvd of all the series a year or two ago and thought it was great, because like you i wondered how it would have stood up from what i remembered watching as a kid. Everyone knows how talented Fry is but i forgot that Laurie was not just funny but a talented guitarist, pianist and (comedy) singer song writer in the show, and in one episode they do a spoof rap which is funny but he was also good at that!

Guest alex Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Used to love it, especially the business men from Uttoxeter. I haven't seen it for ages though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
