I'm not good with faces, but that's Hugh Laurie correct? I enjoy his stuff, can anyone clue me into what this is from?
It's not house nor Bertie Wooster
Holy shit I just finished watching House for the first time like a month ago and I knew he looked familiar. So weird for me not to see him with any scruff or a cane
You need to watch black adder
Check out Avenue 5, hearing him switch between accents constantly is odd but fun.
It's crazy how well he does an American accent. I'm currently watching Veep and was so impressed with how normal southern he sounds. Not a hint of a British accent!
Have you seen Hugh Laurie without his American accent? After only seeing him in House it's uncanny
I have, and I don't think I'll ever get used to it
Ancient video time!

Fun (low quality) fact: He's actually Australian!
It might be from Flight of the Phoenix (2004) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_of_the_Phoenix_(2004_film)
Interesting tidbit: He filmed his audition tape for House from his hotel room during the shooting of Flight of the Phoenix.
You can find it on YouTube.

It's high Huge Laurie without facial hair...
Reverse image search failed me
Dug a little deeper and found a Pinterest pin that seems to suggest it's his role as "Richard Roper" from "The night Manager"
