Hugh Laurie Height
Hugh Laurie height: 6 ft 2.5 in (189 cm)

The UK actor from Blackadder and Stuart Little films. His agency CV lists him as "Height: 6'3'". I think he's just fractionally under but is a very solid 189cm. Looks little bit shorter on House MD because of his cane.

Beside 6ft Geena Davis he apear a solid 6ft3 to me.. He could be a 6ft2.75 barely.. Looks no shorter than 189cm..

Its strange though cos on Jeeves and Wooster all the male characters (Bertie's mates) seem all around the same height and some were a little taller. 6'2.5" might be too much for Laurie. He could very well be but I'm putting a question mark beside it.

He looks somewhere around the 6'2"-3" mark. He doesn't seem like he'd lie. Most likely he'd cut off an inch or so more than anything.

Sara says on 25/Nov/07
He looks just as you posted..6.25
Jim says on 1/Oct/07
Saw a documentary about Fry on BBC, he don't look too much smaller than Stephen Fry who is a tall guy so 6ft2, 6ft 3 seems about right.

I think he's 6'2", just like he says he is. No taller than that.

House MD, when hes breaking into cuddys house, and he bets his 2 juniors he can open her door in less than 20 seconds, LOOK AT THE DOOR

that door is 6'3" if hes 6'2.5", he is literally right on the edge of its frame.

I always thought hugh was around the 6'4" mark(he never stated it, i just thought he looked it), but 6'3" i can accept

I can barely tell a foot from an inch, but Hugh said several times in past interviews that he and Stephen thought it's visually boring to see two people roughly the same height, so in order to accentuate their height difference he would do scenes without wearing shoes or crouch down a bit, which is probably why he seems shorter than Stephen than he actually is. I think he is 6"2.5 and Stephen is 6"4.5.
Sarah says on 27/Aug/07
I didn't know he was THAT tall, but.. sweet =D
kinda tall says on 18/Aug/07
Wow. I never thought he was this tall. I only know him from House, so I thought he was much shorter.
L says on 12/Oct/06
Hugh is definitely close to 6'3" I've talked to him several times. He does tend to slump his shoulders at times, and he's also self-deprecating. He will never say he's more when he can say he's less. If you know what I mean.
Editor Rob says on 7/Sep/06
Tribune news service, 2002:
"I'm 6-2 or something"
J-Dog says on 27/Apr/06
He looks just a shade under 6'3" it's quite believable. He seems a bit larger than 6'2" but who ever truly knows but him. Maybe he identifies more with 6'2" than 6'3" lol.

[Editor Rob: a lot of the time on House he's not actually standing straight obviously, but I remember gunberg (who claims 6ft 2) was on an episode and if he's 6ft 2 then House looked 6ft 3, his cv height...hmm, but then just 1.5 inches shorter than Stephen Fry back in the 80's, I'm not so sure]
DaVinci says on 10/Dec/05
There was this old interview of him with Stephen Fry where they both said he was around 6-foot-two and a bit.
Bill says on 23/May/05
On TFI Friday he said 6-2 correcting Chris Evans Who said 6-3
