Hugh Laurie's Height
6ft 2 ¼ (188.6 cm)
British actor best known for starring in TV series House, Blackadder, The Night Manager and the Stuart Little films. His agency CV lists him as "Height: 6'3'" although he in a panel interview he mentioned "No one on TV matches your image of them. I'm Six-Two and Stephen is Six Four. We exaggerate the height difference because it's visually entertaining to have that height difference. It serves the power dynamics. So I would take my shoes off to look smaller."

I did do a scene with Hugh, who's very tall, where the two of us are sitting next to each other on a bed, and for the first time ever he had to get a cushion put under the covers so that when he sat down on the bed he was taller than me. That was a first for both of us!

@ Arch - Yes, Hugh can turn his talents to anything. I’ve seen him play the guitar as well.
Personally, I would call him ‘very tall’, but then, as with anything, height is relative to the onlooker.
Hugh gets 6ft2.5. He is considerably taller than nearly all the others in the House cast, as can be seen in the opening scene when the music is playing. 😁🎶

189 seems about right, tall enough for women to describe him as "very tall" even though he's not really. Talented pianist and singer too, almost like there's a New Orleans black man from the 1920s inside of him. His voice is nothing what you would expect from him! He really has it.

Hugh has a new DVD out called Roadkill. It was released in 2020, so it’ll show whether he has lost any height.

Back to my dream this morning of the comedy duo Fry and Laurie:
I was itching to ask Stephen and Hugh to stand up, but after my time in hospital, in which my height was used as a descriptor for me, I thought I’d better not!
Perhaps I’ll do so in my next dream….. 🛌💤

It was nice to see the second Stuart Little film the other day. Although I’ve got a copy, I hadn’t seen it yet, and it was every bit as charming as the first one, and with the same great stars.
Hugh can have six foot two-and-a-half. 😁

peak almost 189 but today he really doesnt seem taller than 188. I think he could be one of those guys that loose alot of height with age. 187,5 isnt impossbile these days.

⭐️ Stuart Little 🐁 tries to track down his mouse parents, and the ones that turn up feigning to claim him as their son are a tall ‘n’ tarty white female mouse and a short, fat male mouse with an accent sounding like he’s just stepped out of a Mafia movie! 🤣👌🏼

Oh, brilliant! I noticed that Hugh’s movie Stuart Little is on!
😂😂😂👌🏼
The couple, Hugh and the gorgeous Geena David, go along to an orphanage to adopt a brother for their little boy, and they emerge……
WITH A 3” WHITE MOUSE, dressed in blue with red sneakers! 🐁
The family’s pet cat, Snowball, is jealous of Stuart’s luxury bed, a point of view he expresses after trying to eat him! 🍴 I enjoyed this so much the last time I saw it that I have a copy in my DVD collection. Mouse Stuart is voiced by Michael J Fox.
Hugh gets 6ft2.5. He’s noticeably taller than Geena, who is all of 6ft, yet their surname is LITTLE! 🤭

That’s SUCH a good point you make, Joe. In order for Dr House’s character to look properly disabled, which he is, it’s going to cut his height by quite a bit.

Doesn't seem that tall in House, but when you see him next to others and when he's not leaning on his cane he is pretty tall.

In fact, it's amazing that George IV lived to 67! His corpse provided quite a few problems after the King had died, such was his size!

Hugh starred in Blackadder the Third, playing the Hanoverian Prince George, the Prince Regent from 1811-1820, as his father was ill, later to be crowned King George IV, who reigned from January 29th, 1820 - 26th June, 1830. Slim Hugh portrayed the heftiest monarch ever! In his mid thirties, (1797) George weighed in at 17-and-a-half stone but at the time of his death at 67, he was over 24 stone. George was considerably shorter than the 6ft4, 15th Century King, Edward IV, our tallest monarch ever, and the obese 6ft2 16th Century Tudor King, Henry VIII, He ate huge amounts and drank copiously, as portrayed by Hugh, but he wasn't the ignorant figure of fun that the Blackadder writers made him out to be!
Hugh can have 6ft2.75. 😃🎶🤴👑🏥

In his youth, over 6ft2 for definite but by how much is the question? If Fry was say 6ft4¾ range peak (never quite a full 6ft5) then the full 6ft2½ is certainly a possibility for Hugh...

....but Blanc - Hugh always looks tall in whatever he stars in, my favourites being Blackadder, House and A Bit of Fry and Laurie.
I have films of his as well, bought specifically because Hugh stars in them, and he's never given a disappointing performance to date.
I find him very interesting and lovable and I've just found out that he speaks four different languages: English (properly!), Spanish, French and German.
Hugh is a multi-talented actor who can turn his brilliance to comedy, serious parts (interspersed with humour, as can be seen in House), and he's a musician to boot, with a penchant for the blues. I've seen him play the piano and the guitar as part of his acting characters and even in his funny sketch show with Stephen Fry. His piano playing in an episode of House, in which the clever doctor was diagnosing a young Sauvant lad, was more than impressive; he played the intro to the Boomtown Rats' hit 'I Don't Like Mondays' even better than the original!
6ft2.75. 🤗📺🎸🎹👌

It is hard to pinpoint his height on house because he is always walking with a cane and slightly hunched. he wears Nike Shoe, which do add more than average height boost, but I believe he is legit 6'2". David Morse (listed at 6'3.5") starred in half of season three. He was definitely taller than Hugh, had at least an inch and a half on him. i believe this listing is a bit high for him.

He was definitely a good 6'2 in his prime, today at 61 he's looking under the mark more often than not. Could be his posture, but he has likely lost a half inch or so by now, wouldn't you say Rob?

Always looked tall and unlike most people seemed to get better looking as he got older. Sort of grew into his looks. Had a slightly geeky look as a young man which he lost as he aged. Amazed me that he went from being part of what might be considered a 'cult' or student comedy duo with Stephen Fry into being one of the biggest stars on US television.

6ft1 is too low even today but he does look like he’s struggling with 6ft2. Currently I think that’s what he’s at now.

Although I have only seen him in his appearance in the show House, he does not appear to be anywhere near the 6’2 1/2 or so listed on here. In many zoomed-out scenes, he looks slightly above average, possibly a solid 6’ guy in my opinion. I’ll give him 6’1 here because of many accounts I have seen, that claim he is a tall man.

Oh, this is bloody marvellous! House is being told off by his therapist and they are sitting opposite one another across a small wooden table.
He is sitting with his legs boldly on the table, his big shoes not at all far from the therapist's nose. The only thing that would be funnier is if he'd removed his shoes beforehand!

@ Christian - Well, the truth is that I often can't make my mind up! Hugh has been consistently the tallest member of the 'House' cast, but having said that, he was in a detention centre in an episode I saw the other day and there were some even bigger guys than Hugh, no doubt employed because they were bullying Dr House, and had to look convincing. Hugh's Dr House gave as good as he got!

On one of this afternoon's episodes of 'House', Hugh's Dr Greg House called out for a patient named Janet Haemorrhoid! Janet went up to the towering Dr House and said, "That's not my name; that's what I'm here for."
She kept a lot calmer than many would have stayed in her situation, and with the greatest of dignity, she walked out of the hospital waiting room!

I dreamt of Hugh again last night, and this time round, it wasn’t a dream with Stephen Fry, but one with Rowan Atkinson. Both guys were wonderful to chat to, but if I have a dream about him tonight, I’ll ask him about this particularly gruelling episode of “House” I’m watching, which I have never seen before.
House tends to a girl who, preceding a terrible disaster, with loads of injured people, he has to amputate her leg, but doesn’t want to. He tells the girl about how much better off he’d have been if his whole leg had been removed after his accident, because he was left crippled and in permanent pain.
Now I think the girl is very ill, also having suffered a collapsed lung, and I don’t know if she’ll survive. The expression on House’s face says it all. She didn’t and Greg House is heartbroken.
What a brilliant actor.

Hugh's 'House' has just returned from being institutionalised and he wants to leave his job. The two episodes are among my favourites, and very moving.
Greg House is now in his kitchen, cooking away at some delicacy and wearing an apron! There's a knock at the door and it's Olivia Wilde. She samples his cooking and tells him that he's a brilliant cook.
His reply? "I know!" 😂😂😂👌

That was one of the saddest 'House' episodes I have ever seen. The patient died and so did his dog.
Had it not been for one of the student doctors being neglectful, the patient would have taken his meds and not the dog, both of whom died as a result.

I am watching an episode of 'House' entitled 'Jerk', which is right at the end of Season Three. In it, there is a teenage boy who, upon winning his chess championship game, attacks his good loser of an opponent with the timer and draws blood from his head.
When he is admitted to hospital and interviewed by the team, he is rude-mannered and shows no respect for his worried Mum and talks about his female schoolteacher like she's a piece of meat. Upon hearing this, House comes out with, "I like this kid!" 😮
Good grief, Greg, he's outrageous, and about as opposite to obsequious as you are! But maybe that's why you like him....? 😂😂😂

⭐ House was just talking about inserting a tube into his urethra because he can't pee. Then, when one of his fellow male doctors cringe, House said, "It's alright for the first eight or nine inches....!" 😟🍌
Er, yes, House! Message received and understood! 😲😖
Well, everything to match his supersized height! 🤪

Last night I had one of the loveliest, funniest dreams EVER. It 'starred' Hugh Laurie - and my Dad! My Dad had 'employed' 😂 Hugh's services to find me a kitten, and when he arrived at the house, my Dad's house, the first thing I remarked upon was his hair. I said, "You look like a tall, blond cat from behind!" He accused me of wearing bad hair extensions! 😂😂
Well, conversation edged round to the kitten. Hugh said, "Its name is GREEN!" to which I replied, "I like a bit of Peter Green! The name shall stay!"
It was then decided that we should listen to Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac afterwards.
My Dad was extremely excited, having just discovered that he had a daughter he didn't know about, (sorry Dad - I can't control my dreams!) and I was equally pleased to have a sister - and such a nice one! Her Mum was somebody my Dad had met in Germany in 1947 when he actually met my Mum, and was related to my Mum's father's Austrian side of the family, yet she was only about 19! Well, you know how silly dreams are....😉
Hugh took us round to the kitten's house, and sat on a bed with loads of toys belonging to a three-year-old, and started playing with them! 😂😂😂 I said to him, "I can see you're no stranger to items like this!" He smiled!
When we got back to my Dad's, on went Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, Green the Kitten was fed - from a green bowl, and afterwards he curled up in a green bed. The wine flowed and fags were smoked and then the most wonderfully mutual slanging match was enjoyed by all. It was a trio of sheer entertainment and bliss, where everything that was said was acceptable, however rude and insulting! Hugh went into detail about his liking for Blues music. I said, "I'm aware of your partiality for the Blues. When are you going to record another CD?"
It was one of my most enjoyable dreams I have EVER had in my life! 😁👍
Hugh can have 6ft2.75. He's on my TV right now! 👏🎬

You can't blame him for not caring though! He is being haunted by the 5ft10 ghost of the woman (Anne Dudek) whose death he feels responsible for. Now he has confided in others about the matter and wonders whether he's seeing things due to lack of sleep, vicodin abuse or something as sinister as a brain tumour.
Poor House. 😪
NOT the best time to take his height. He's tired! (Still looks very tall though - oh yes!)

Hugh keeps saying '@rse' on 'House'. What a naughty boy! But that's nothing; earlier today, when I was watching 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie', I heard him say 'v🅰️gina' and '🅿️enis'! I was utterly speechless! 😮
It's voting time again, so Hugh can have a quality 6ft2.75. Why? The reason is he can look 6ft4.5 Stephen Fry straight in the face. 😁👍

Mr Laurie tells Cameron "I have a full bladder and I'm not afraid to use it!"
He hasn't been able to 'go' for three days, and the thought of Cameron disobeying his demands prompted the aforementioned response! 🚽🍋

House played the intro to the Boomtown Rats' track 'I Don't Like Mondays' as part of diagnosing a Sauvant and the young fellow was able to mimic it perfectly.

An episode of Today's House:
⭐ There's a guy who's madly in love 😂with a black-and-white cow! 🐄💕
⭐ House says, "A big, fat, sloppy heart is better than no heart at all," while he is fighting tooth and nail for a 65/66-year-old father to get a heart transplant and the medical board disallow him because they reckon he's too old. Then House seizes upon the opportunity of getting the heart of an overweight woman with zero life expectancy, who is on life support, imploring her husband for her heart.

I am watching the episode in which Dr House's ex shows up - complete with her new and ailing husband. House is still in love with her and she still has feelings for him, and he is displaying the very human emotion of jealousy 😫. He even admits that part of him wants his love rival to perish, but the woman, Stacey, implores House to help him, Mark, when a set of complications present themselves after the initial diagnosis.
When House first meets this man and they have a verbal comparison competition, House comes out with, "I'm definitely taller!" Ha ha! He's taller than nearly everyone!
The episode plays out to the Rolling Stones' track, "You Can't Always Get What You Want." 🎶🎧😁💊💊
Very fitting in every aspect of life!

@ Ian555 - I had a look at your pictures and found one of Hugh standing next to George Clooney. He's MUCH taller than George's 5ft11, or at least that was George's height in my favourite of his movies, the dark comedy 'From Dusk Till Dawn', in which he plays the 6ft1 Quentin Tarantino's brother. There is more of a difference between George and Hugh than between George and Quentin.
I shall give Hugh 6ft2.5. 😊👍

Rob wouldn’t it be appropriate to have a current height for Laurie and peak height 6’ 2 1/4” based on this photo with Idris Elba who is 6’ 2 1/2” Click Here. He easily looks an inch shorter than him.

Editor RobHugh might be a 1/4 or maybe a half less...I think usually for 1/4 inches I tend not to do the peak/current, but a half inch to 3/4 becomes a point I would change the listing.

⭐️ I believe the Prince Regent (born in 1762) took over from his Dad, George III, in 1811, because his father was troubled. The film 'The Madness of King George' is about the Prince Regent's Hanoverian Dad, King George III.
George IV, obviously from the House of Hanover himself, came to the throne officially in 1820, dying in 1930. ⭐️

No way do I regret putting 6ft3 for Hugh. Now that 'Blackadder III' is in full swing, I can see how tiny 5ft4 Tony 'Baldrick' Robinson looks in comparison to him and the just-under-6ft Rowan Atkinson, although there isn't a monster difference, does have to look up to him. The very last episode has Stephen Fry, playing the Duke of Wellington, kicking Hugh (Prince George), up the rear and slapping his shocked little face; then Blackadder takes great delight in demonstrating how hard he was hit - over and over again! It's got to be one of the funniest scenes that comedy has to offer! George and Blackadder have swapped places, you see, with George's full permission! 🐔
Before that, of course, there will be an invaluable chance to compare Hugh with the 6ft1+ Robbie Coltrane, who is playing Dr Samuel Johnson. Unlike the Duke of Wellington, fortunately Dr Johnson, though strict, isn't quite so fond of kicking and slapping him!
No, I can never tire of 'Blackadder'!

He's coming..... 😋
Blackadder II:-
Episode 5 - 'Beer', playing Simon Partridge, a drunken flatulent joker and
Episode 6 - 'Chains', wherein he plays Evil Prince Ludwig. It was watching him playing Ludwig that I said to my Dad, "This guy is a knockout! He's going to go FAR!"
Then, within weeks, 'House' started, and I know he applied for that role while making 'Flight of the Phoenix'.
Due to the fact that there's only one box, Hugh gets 6ft3.

I found a picture of Hugh's late father on the internet! He was a doctor, just like Hugh's Dr House, which I found out back at the time the excellent series 'House' started, so the subject can't have been that alien to Mr Laurie Junior. What I didn't know until today though was that Hugh looks exactly like his Dad, which I found very sweet indeed! I reckon he must have inherited his height as well!
Today, Hugh can have 6ft2.5.❤️

@ Nik - Ah! Great! You've popped over to this page now which is extremely convenient because I was looking for you to answer a comment you left me on another page. It was in reply to my reaction to a guy who calls himself 'Fart Explosion'!
The celebrity whose page it was on I have never heard of in my whole life, hence my difficulty tracking down your reply. So I have decided to do it here instead.
First of all, can you imagine how much I laughed when I found that you also went along to pay your respects to that amazing name? Somehow I thought you might! Percentage-wise, I would have said "There's a 90% chance that I find Nik here! It's a just a matter of who gets there first!"
Well, it was me! The Concert Party was still in full swing, so I hope you enjoyed it!
Then there was another little thing I had to mention, and that was that I noticed you left me a comment on Hitler's page regarding the varieties of 'Correction Time' headings I come out with, to which I say, "You can't beat a bit of variety!" Notice no spices of life or otherwise were used in my reply!
To say we are beginning to pick up on each other's senses of humour would be an understatement! 😊😆

It looks like it's another mistake alert (vous) this time!
I am sure Hugh will accept your apologies Sandy!
Take care!

😠 Ball Bag Alert! 😠 (Moi!)
Well, come on folks! Who mucks up on a university graduate's page if (s)he isn't one?
That should have been EXCESS, and not access, when I referred to Hugh's friend Stephen Fry!
(6th line down of my comment dated 8th September!)
Please accept my humble apologies Hugh, preferably pronounced in the same accent as that of 'Evil Prince Ludwig' from the final episode of 'Blackadder II'!

I would disagree in no uncertain terms with you Ali, in the friendliest way possible, of course! Hugh looks at the very least 6ft2. He can look Stephen Fry straight in the face, and Stephen's in access of 6ft4!
I am going for 6ft2.5. In his younger days, Hugh was nearer 6ft3!

Towers the 178-181cm Rowan Atkinson in Blackadder by atleast 8-10cm. Very solid 188-189cm man. Age has catched up to him big time though. Grey hair, huge dark spots under his eyes, wrinkly skin. :/ time gets to us all. Might drop .5cm-1cm in the coming years.

I would not be a bit surprised if he squeaked up to 6'3 at his tallest. He's looked tall in every setting I've seen him, even when he's completely slouched over. I'd guess 6'2.5, the last I saw him. Fry is a house though.

I did compare Hugh and Tom in 'The Night Manager' myself, and if I had to place a bet on one being taller than the other, my money would be on Hugh!
At times, he did actually look a bit bigger in the height department!

Editor Rob I think a fraction over 6ft 2 and probably 6ft 2 at most today. I think generally if it looks a good half inch lost I'd change it.

I would have guessed Hugh Laurie's height to be 6ft3 at the start of his career. I started seriously liking him when one Summer, that of 2005, I had access to all the Blackadders from the second series through to the forth. I loved the German accent Hugh put on to play 'Evil Prince Ludwig' in the final Blackadder II episode and he was there with his normal voice for series III and IV.
That same Autumn, Laurie was to be seen in American series 'House', playing the title role brilliantly! I couldn't get over the difference in his performances, from comedy to serious. I am sure that his ability to effect so many accents, including a very sexy American one, was what triggered off in me a fascination in when an actor can convincingly pull off an accent other than his own!
Not surprisingly, I have accumulated a vast collection of his work, including Fry and Laurie.
Even now, Hugh is still very tall, I'd say 6ft2.5 as seen in the 'Night Manager'.
I would love to see him get back into comedy, but I'll be interested in anything he does!

you can clearly see on his back that he is starting to loose heigt. I would say peak was 189 and and now he is beetween 187-88 probebly 188 still but 1 cm shorter than peak.

6'2.25 peak, 6'2 now. Tom and Hugh look the same because they are the same height;IMO, Tom is a full 6'2 rather than 6'1.75

Plus, Stephen Fry is clearly over flat, like a solid 194, yet Laurie refers to himself as 6'2 and Fry as "6'4". So if he's rounding Fry down a half inch(195 peak wouldn't at all surprise me for Stephen Fry) means dropping a quarter inch himself would make sense, in context. 188.5-189 for Laurie, 194-195 Fry, makes sense.
This 2.25 listing is perfect for him, he clearly isn't a guy worried about height, he took his shoes off w/ Fry, just to exaggerate the height difference(which explains a lot). Likely has measured between the marks at some point, which explains the 191cm CV listing, they probably rounded up 0.5-.75in.
On an unrelated note: A new year, another downgrade for Arnie ;)

Blackadder was 30 years ago... Rob, would you consider 6ft2.25 as a compromise? This guy wore converse and vans all the time on House, and with the limp, his posture often wasn't great, yet he still was towering, especially in full body shots. Standing straight, he looked a very legit 189cm in early episodes, especially.
I myself have said in previous comments more than once that 6ft2.25(like 188.5-189cm range) might be closer, but a flat 188, I just don't see it...
Take a look yourself, this guy was taller than the Hugh Jackmans of the world, an certainly not less than a guy like Ben Affleck!
Today, I think he's lost a touch of height, but a weak 189cm peak.
So, would you consider 6ft2.25???

Has never looked taller than 6'2" in House, but that's probably because of the cane and slouching posture. I could see a 6'2,5" man in him, especially upon watching Blackadder.

Hes always looked tall in pics and movies and tv shows. I'd say 6'2-ish. The 6'3 is an exageration but hes still plenty tall

Ibrahimovic claimed to be 1.95 metres! and i believe it! He's huge. I think he's one of the tallest footballers! Hugh Laurie was 5-6 cms shorter than him so i think he's 1.89-1.90!

For some strange reason action stars would be shorter than you'd think, while the comedians'd be much taller, maybe the confidence factor is what makes funny guys be that funny...

Legit 6'1.5 - 6'2 guy. He had 2-3 inches on 5'11 - 6' Zach Braff, but was also at least 2" shorter than ~6'4 Zlatan Ibrahimovic (listed everywhere between 6'3 - 6'5, so i'll give him 6'4).

he's not a 6'3 guy for sure. with conan o'brien in the emmy sketch, he stand face to face and conan has around 2 inches on laurie. in house, with david morse who plays detective tritter he also comes short by a couple of inches. i'd say he's bang on 6'2

I've seen Laurie on a commercial with soccer player Ibrahimovic, who's 6'3.5 and the most he could have on Laurie is one inch.

Nike Shox (or some other brand with the same design) are part of his standard wardrobe on 'House' so he could have a half inch footwear advantage on every cast member.

Get a grip people the guy isn't even 50 yet, he hasn't shrunk at all. Hes pushing 6'3", definately not under 6'2". He looks to have lost height because of his posture in House. He doesn't actually walk around like that in real life.

Laurie is like Hugh Jackman. He always downplays is height. On house his posture is bad possibly due the character. But standing straight I'd say 191cm.

He doesn't look that tall on HOUSE, but I think that is mainly because the women on the show always wear real killer heals. Plus he appears to be slouching quite a lot.
He's described himself once as "perceived to be slightly taller in person than one expects". I think he's at least 189 - 190 cm.

Never looks shorter than 6ft2. Really, Laurie couldn't give a crap about his height 'I dunno 6-2 or something like that'. 6ft2.5 is correct.

In a movie omar epps was taller than 177cm tyra banks. I think it was love and basketball. In house he's at least 10 cm shorter than hugh laurie. In street kings he was maybe an inch or two taller than keanu reeves. In stuart little he was taller than 180cm geena davis. I would say he's 188 to 190 no shorter.

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.

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.

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.
