HouseTelevision Appearances
Hugh has done a lot of television, mainly in the UK. This page lists Hugh's appearances as a performer or presenter, with clips and screencaps where possible. (I'll be adding more as I find source recordings and have time to get what I have uploaded.) Appearances for charity have been split out onto a separate page. The sources I've used to identify Hugh's appearances are:
- The British Film Institute's ScreenOnline film & tv credits page for Hugh
- The BFI's Film & TV Database page for Hugh
- IMDB's Hugh Laurie page
Some of the UK shows have appeared in the US on PBS, BBC America, or other cable channels. Some of these have been released on VHS or DVD at one time or another, usually in both the UK and the US. (They are pretty easy to find on eBay). If a more details link is provided, there is a separate page with additional information about the show.
For more information about the clips & screencaps on this site, please visit the welcome page.

excerpt of Hugh's primary contribution to the "Christmas Special" edition of this celebrity quiz show hosted by
Reeves & Mortimer. Most of the time he seemed to be wondering how the hell
he was talked into this (see screencaps...). Other participants in this special were Matt Lucas, Ulrika Jonsson, Johnny Vegas, Will Self, Anthea Turner, Robin Gibb, and Stephen Fry. Capped from a NTSC DVD supplied by Jennifer, most likely transferred
from a PAL OTA recording. |

excerpt from episode 5 of this 6 episode series in which Hugh played Paul
Slippery. In this episode, Paul's wife Estelle has enlisted his children,
colleagues, and friends to plan a surprise party for Paul. Paul, as usual,
gets the wrong end of the stick and thinks Estelle is having an affair.
Multiple affairs, actually, with all Paul's friends. In the clip, Paul gets
his drink on, sings the blues, and embarrasses his children. Screencaps are from the entire episode. Clipped and re-encoded from an AVI supplied by an anonymous fan in the
