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.

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.

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