Fry and Laurie, just so fabulous!

Their flights of fancy are reminders of Monty Python, yet seem better finished and fun.

Great for fans

If you're a fan of Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie's brand of film and TV comedies then this is definitely worth a listen. Basically a radio version of 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie', it's always fun to hear them be silly and play off each other. The guest stars are all great and recognizable from British comedy as well.

My Only Complaint

I loved this! The only complaint I have is that the episodes should be separated the way chapters are separated.

Great!!

For the first few minutes, I found it difficult to follow the show and almost considered stopping it. However, I kept listening and did not regret it! The comedy genius of Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie shines in this very, very funny show from the late 80s. Be warned that a lot of the humor is based on British culture, history, politics, and radio. Between that fact and the fast pace of the show, it can be difficult to follow. Even though I have spent a lot of time in the UK over the past 20 years, I still probably missed 80% of the gags. Nonetheless, the 20% that I did get had me rolling on the floor.

So much fun!

Incredibly funny! The comedic chemistry of this group is brilliant! I'm sure I'll be listening over and over.
