I love how he says, "Yes, Dame" (as in Dame Helen Mirren) rather than any other title or endearment (ma'am, et al). It was respectful and hilarious, especially after her admonishment to "read it properly this time". I adore Hugh Laurie.
As a real French who studied English at college I have to say that this translation is amazing even a French would translate this as well as Hugh Laurie ! And his accent is definitely breathtaking!!!
Even if he wasn't truly speaking french, I would have believed every word coming from him. He is the master at masking his real voice with other accents.
I agree with you. I love his comic delivery, I seen all his speeches and all the shows his presented or gotten awarded, and his comedic timing is fabulous. So natural which is why is funny and he does not need to swear a million times... Like some other comics out there.
I was born in Los Angeles and it's where I live, but I have friends and family in France and I went to France for a few months (more like lived there since I went to school and everything). The point is I'm not french, but I know french.
he is from england but he can speak without the british accent that's really good.... when he send his video to the casting of dr. house they didn't know that he is from englan dthey thought he's american awesome i love him
The very small type of fish is a Minnow with an M, like the Minnow nations in Rugby. Winnowing is a method of separating grain from chaff when harvesting wheat. In this case they were separating the grain of the good actors from the chaff of the lesser actors.
There's an episode of House that Hugh has to say some words in br portuguese. It was so cool, I don't know why do we get so exited when these things happen haha

Seriously
PRESque IMMMMMpossible
Holy cow. I came because it was Hugh Laurie presenting an award. I didn't expect to see the outstanding Andre Braugher win. It's the greatest bonus!!!
He is my favorite actor for a reason... this being one of the many.
Hugh Laurie
You can even tell after the "Poof! Cinque" that she's having a hard time keeping a straight face. Great awards intro, better than most by far.
Haha "Poof! Cinq."
Hugh Laurie is comedic genius and I love him in this clip but it’s Helen Mirren’s facial expressions that kill me. This was great
This is hilarious and deserved bigger laughs than the audience gave.
Jealous Americans.
I am convinced it is because the audience is predominatly American and does not understand even a word of basic French😂
Even if he wasn't truly speaking french, I would have believed every word coming from him. He is the master at masking his real voice with other accents.
Born and raised in Oxford, studied at Eton and Cambridge. Champion rower, author, musician, and (as we all know) talented actor.
HUGHLAURIOUS!
I keep giggling that he says "Monsieur Laurie et moi-meme..."
I only realised why that's funny when I read your comment
Dr. House gave the award to his future psychiatrist. Nice! :D

a winnow is a very small type of fish, and from that the verb has arisen meaning to cut something down to a small size
days...:D
Il a un accent vraiment très sexy........ j'adore...

Just love. Genius.
i love this!!!!! ive probably watched about 20 times!!!!!!
I swear everything time I see this i'm cracking up.
De winnowing! haha
Love it!
He's good!
The "r" is too rough, but it makes it even funnier.
"Literally hundreds of stunning performances to a meagerless of just five."
"Poof! Cinq." lmaoXDDD
The way Helen reacts the third time 😂😂😂😂😂
Considering Helen knows French lol.
There's more to a relationship other then looks,just because his wife might not look so good she is probably a good person.
I want to thank the word "um," for making up half this acceptance speech.
Should've gone with an 'err'. It makes your French accent seem more authentic.
God, he is so funny lol lol lol
