A Go Review That Book! group review

This highly entertaining collection features scripts for the first three seasons of the show "A Bit of Fry and Laurie". If you like Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, or both, you'll definitely want to read this. The sketches crackle with wordplay and wit, and only some diversions into more topical subjects, meaning they're still as funny today as when they were first created. My favourite sketches are the ones involving the spies, Tony and Control; their excessively polite and stilted dialogue never fails to bring a smile to my face. As I read this book I frequently chuckled out loud and occasionally hooted with laughter at really naughty or clever bits. Worth picking up if you can find it: the sketches, the photos, even the introductions to each individual volume are well worth it. And if you haven't seen the sketches, this book may inspire you to hunt them down. ( )
