Hugh Laurie Receives Honor from Queen



Hugh Laurie, who stars in the hit TV medical drama "House," was made a member of the Order of the British Empire on Wednesday.

Queen Elizabeth II presented the honor to Laurie at Buckingham Palace.

The 47-year-old actor has been part of the comedy establishment in Britain for more than 20 years. He was a member of the Cambridge Footlights comedy group along with Emma Thompson and Stephen Fry.

Laurie and Fry landed their own sketch show, "A Bit of Fry and Laurie," in 1987. They also starred in "Jeeves and Wooster," a hugely popular TV version of P.G Wodehouse's comic stories.

Laurie's film roles include "Sense and Sensibility," "Peter's Friends" and "Stuart Little."

He has won two Golden Globe awards for his role on "House" as the brilliant but flawed Dr. Gregory House, who heads a medical team specializing in the diagnosis of rare disorders.

He now spends most of his time in Los Angeles for his role on News Corp.'s Fox network show.

Yah! for Hugh! If I remember correctly, his award is for service to dramatic acting. (Take that, Emmy voters.)

Sir Hugh... *grin* It does have a ring to it!

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

I think you only get to use the term "sir" if you move up one or two places in the ranking. If I remember right, Paul McCartney got an OBE when the Beatles were still together and then was made a commander of the British Empire later and became a "sir."

I'd certainly love to see pictures of the ceremony---he'd have to shave and be properly dressed...I have no doubt it would stoke my Jools fantasies, because Jools craves a knighthood. (Or at least, I crave a knighthood for Jools, simply for the inevitable "Knight at the Opera" pun.)

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

Oh, gawd. You've used the "Smoking Jools" icon, which is a weapon of mass destruction. That neck, those lips, that Adam's Apple. *swoons*

I've already checked three of the major wire service photo outlets and no photos yet. I also can't wait -- Hugh cleans up very nicely!

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

He does indeed clean up nicely! If I had a way to screencap, I would've snagged a plethora of Jools pix. And a few Ians. And a Bertie or two....

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

I could have a rummage in my photobucket account and see what I can come up with. :)

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

!!!

And if, while you're in there, you could find any pix of Bobby from SPN, I would fall down at your feet and worship you with offerings of virtual chocolate. *makes puppy dog eyes at you*

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

Do you want them posted here? I have a batch ready to go in html coding.

I'll have to scout around the 'net for some of Bobby, but I have lots of Jools, Ian and Bertie.

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

Here's a first batch featuring sexy, evil Jools -- I love this first photo beyond all bounds of decency:

All Bobby caps are by withoutxfear on LJ:









I really like this one!

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

Ian:

*squeeflailmoan*

*worships* Thanks ever so!

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

Bertie, in two parts. Part the first:

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

And part the second, with a bonus:















And lest we forget what a helluva sexy & athletic guy Hugh Laurie really is:

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

I have some more photos of Ian, but will have to rummage in the other account to find them.

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

*ovaries explode like fireworks* Wow!

I foresee icons. Soon. Heheh.

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

I'm dazed, delighted and ded from guh. Esp. that shirtless Ian, OMG. And Bertie in the bath. I don't usually 'memory' my own entries, but this one, YES, for all the lovely piccies!

Thank you SO much!

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

Ah, but I'm happy to share. I have so many caps and saved photos because I make banners and avatars for a friend's HL fansite. So many that before Photobucket increased the limit I *cough*signed up for a second free acount in my dog's name.*cough*

A few more coming right up.

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

And a bit more of Ian:

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

And a bit more of Bertie:






And we’re done!

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

That last one may make me go blind. Quite riveting. "Hmmm...I note that Mr. Laurie dresses to the right!"

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

*wibbles happily*

[pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com]

I have to fan myself every time I look at that one. I think that was made around the time he'd been in The Borrowers, because he played a policeman and had his hair cut super short.

Ah, heck, let's play dress up and find another couple of great photos:

That one's from The Borrowers behind-the-scenes extras. It's a kids' movie and yet he's rather hot with the ammo belt and the handcuffs.

This one's a 1996 magazine cover scan (the long hair and beard are from his appearance in 101 Dalmations) that I cleaned the text from. Brace yourself:

Truly these are the world's bluest eyes.

*THUD*

Even with the warning, I wasn't braced enough! *drools*

*is rendered breathless, speechless and downright gormless*

OMG,OMG,OMG,OMG....

Yay Hugh! *applauds*
