For those that want to see the entire show it can be viewed on the "Bit of Fry and Laurie Season 2" disk as a special feature. I'd have to agree that the skit with Fry reading Dracula was hysterical. The song at the end is priceless. It amazes me how little Shearer and Dwyer perform in the entire show with Fry and Laurie practically carrying the entire thing. Thompson has a couple of scenes, with one being a solo venture, but the second scene, a Victorian spoof, is shouldered more by Fry than Thompson. It's hard to say whether the song sung by Tony Slattery was meant to be amusing or just very dark humor. Based on the fact that Tony wasn't diagnosed with a Bi-Polar disorder until much later in life, it's a dark foreshadow of his life to come. Even his role in Peter's Friends highlight's his bi-polar tendencies. My wonder is who wrote all of the songs in the presentation. We all know Hugh's ability with instruments, but was he responsible for any or all of the songs?
