Fry and Laurie Reunited - Exclusive to GOLD Nov 24th, 9pm

  • 14 years ago
Britain’s leading comedy channel GOLD has commissioned a one-off special programme to celebrate 30 years of Fry & Laurie’s relationship to be shown exclusively on GOLD at 9pm, Wednesday 24th November. Thirty years ago Fry and Laurie met for the first time at Cambridge, introduced by their mutual friend Emma Thompson and comedy history was made. Stephen is a national treasure and the epitome of a polymath with his staggering output ranging from acting (Wilde, Kingdom, Blackadder, Bones) to directing (Bright Young Things) to writing (The Liar, Making History) to voicing (the Harry Potter books) to presenting (Stephen Fry in America, Qi, Sorry I haven’t a Clue) and he is now of course Twitterer supreme. Hugh Laurie stars as Gregory House in the global hit TV series House, as well as finding time to fit in Hollywood movies, voiceovers for major cartoons, comedy, music and to write best selling novel The Gun Seller. Stephen Fry says: "I am delighted to be given the opportunity to retread the 30 years Hugh and I have known each other and worked together. It was a great joy reminiscing about our times together and I hope GOLD viewers enjoy watching us grow older and older..." Throughout the programme, Stephen and Hugh open up, revealing fascinating insights into their friendship and their careers, and take a look back at their sketches, interspersed with hilarious clips from their work. This one-off special show for GOLD will air exclusively on GOLD November 24th, 9pm. Where to find GOLD: Sky channel 110, Virgin TV channel 126, and Top-Up TV channel 17.
