My favorite Hugh Laurie bit:
''I know everyone says they have a wonderful crew and logically that can't be the case and they can't all be wonderful. Somebody, somewhere, is working with a crew of drunken thieves.''
No power in the 'verse can stop me.
River ,'War Stories'
The Crying of Natter 49

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Jesus Christ. Where The Wild Things Are. It's just playing here. I've never seen it before.

My favorite elderly female Brit is Dame Maggie Smith, who will always be Miss Jean Brodie in my head. Even when she is playing a nun in a Whoopi Goldberg vehicle.
Right there with you Nutty, though I've always been more aware of her as herself than any particular role.

Wow, I almost wish I hadn't skipped over it (I generally don't listen to the speeches of people I've never seen in anything).
