Parent Power



This was the opening skit of the first regular episode of A Bit of Fry & Laurie in 1989. Hugh Laurie is an irate parent confronting the school's headmaster, Stephen Fry, over what his son is being taught about sex. I don't understand how either one of them kept a straight face through the entire scene. This was 34 years ago, but this kind of thing is still happening today.

For those who can't see Facebook videos, here's a low-quality YouTube link.

    I'm sorry, it's Facebook video. I will add a YouTube link for those who can't get Facebook.

    Ignorant moral outrage never really changes, does it?

    I find it amazing that someone so semi-staid and so obviously stupid could later on become a famous doctor.
